Northwave EVOLUTION PLUS : ROAD SHOES

Northwave Evolution Plus Road Shoes
These Northwave Evolution Plus Road Shoes offer top-spec features with a top-spec price and stand out for their functionality and style.

Road racing shoes are designed without compromise to provide optimum power transfer between feet and pedals. Good quality road shoes such as Northwave's Evolution Plus are a wise investment for performance and weight saving, which is often overlooked.

The high-tech materials and precision manufacture of these shoes keep weight down and stiffness up. This means your rotational mass is lower and power transfer is higher, resulting in more forward momentum for your effort.

Features:
Carbon light sole made of carbon and fibreglass with a stiffness index of 10.0 and 4 vents for constant airflow
NW Speedplay adapter compatible for the lowest stack height between foot and pedal (adapter not incuded)
BioMap unibody upper made of ultralight PU eliminates hotspots
Double SLW2 dial, the only one with step-by-step and full release in a single button that provides optimal pressure distribution
Integrated heel system ensures efficient heel retention
Weight: 275g

BioMap: Your energy is precious, never waste it. That’s why Northwave's shoes are designed with BioMap technology. Northwave soles, uppers and all their components are anatomically compatible with every cyclist’s feet and are designed to keep the foot in the right position while pedalling, transmitting power directly to the pedals without wasting any energy.

Carbon Light Sole: Carbon fibre and nylon: an effective solution for demanding cyclists who require high performance with very low weight. Speedplay pedals compatibility using the specific adaptor.

Speedplay Adaptor: The shortest distance between foot and pedal on the market. Northwave developed and patented, in collaboration with Speedplay, an exclusive adaptor that provides maximum power transmission on pedals, thanks to the reduced thickness of just 0.5mm rather than the 3mm of traditional Speedplay adaptors. Made of nylon with a thin aluminium plate (saving 8.5g), it allows to respect the natural anatomy of the sole, keeping the distance minimised between the foot and the pedal in any position without adding bulk and weight as it occurs in systems without the adaptor.

SLW2 Closing System: The micrometric system SLW2 (Speed Lace Winch) represents the evolution of the closure system. Maximum precision and modularity. The innovative step by step closure means you can tighten and enlarge the fit in a few moments.

The side button provides a dual function: by pressing, it features a micrometric release and lifting it allows a complete and immediate opening of the shoe. Thinner and more lightweight. The dial has been completely redesigned in size and weight, resulting in being significantly lighter and thinner. The external covering of soft touch material also makes the grip more effective.The ergonomic shape of the SLW2 ratchet follows the anatomy of the foot to make it comfortable. The SLW2 ratchet is easily replaceable. The cables come from the best technology derived from the world of sailing.

Integrated Heel System: The new unibody construction of the uppers allowed integrating an efficient heel retention system inside the structure, without the need of external elements. Same efficiency, reduced
