Prolight Techlace’s feather-like weight outsole

The Prolight Techlace’s feather-like weight is made possible thanks to outsoles made from TeXtreme Advanced carbon fiber materials. Instead of fibers woven into threads, this design is woven in flat sheets, which uses less resin and therefore saves weight. This pair utilizes titanium hardware, which is lighter than the usual ones used in bike shoes.
