Sidi Genius 6.6 Carbon Lite Vernice Road Cycling Shoes

Sidi Genius 6.6 Carbon Lite Vernice Road Cycling Shoes: New for 2010, the Sidi Genius 6.6 Vernice features the new Carbon Lite Sole and is made from Vernice Microfibre for pure comfort. Vernice Microfibre: A synthetic material that allows dirt to slide away thanks to its smooth surface. Clean with water and mild soap and towel dry, do not expose to heat. Use of alchol or abrasive cleaners is not recommended. Soft Instep Closure System: The wide, padded, anatomic strap has been coupled with soft, thermoformed material to increase comfort and performance. It distributes pressure evenly over the arch area and is adjustable from both sides for perfect centering. The system elimates the need for the High Instep Extender. The SL and Caliper buckle straps are serviceable and replaceable. Caliper Buckle: The Caliper buckle is adjusted by lifting the central buckle. In order to open it completely, lift both buckles sides. To slightly loosen the closure while riding, push down the central clip. High Security Velcro: The high security straps with integrated locking polymer teeth engage onto each other when the strap is closed. This feature makes the closure more secure and the strap becomes unmoveable. Heel Cup System (HCS): Sidi Created the heel cup system for cyclists with narrower ankles. The mechanism tightens the top of the heel cup so that it doesn't slip during steep climbs or sprints. Made from thermoplastic, it can be easily replaced or removed, just remove the black button and unscrew the screw. Sidi Heel: The reinforced heel keeps the foot in position and avoids the shoe being deformed by extreme performance or prolonged pressure.
