The G1 uses real kangaroo leather because it offers supreme softness and its excellent ability to adapt to each wearer's foot.The G1’s real wow-factor is the feeling of power transmission its construction generates. It's almost bionic: you feel like your legs are one with the crank unit and the power is being transmitted directly to the road with no losses or distortion. One key feature is the two-tone style effect these shoes have. The shoe features white a panel on the outside (Boa), whilst the inner side is black.Italian shoes, in general, have a narrower footbed in the front; the G1’s footbed is slightly wider, which allows your toes more room to move and breathe.Custom FittingIt’s simple. Put the shoes in the oven at 80°C degrees for 10 minutes. Wear two socks, put the shoe on, sit down with your knees bent at 90 degrees, then use your hands to push or pull the carbon fibre into form where needed. Let it cool down without moving. Done! This process can be repeated as needed, should you ever feel pressure points (after the first 1000km).Features:Kangeroo leather; lightweight, breathable, form-fitting, abrasion resistant and anti-microbial treatmentSilver mesh; breathable, abrasion-resistant and anti-microbialPatent-pending 100% carbon fibre sole with thermo-formable reinforcement material in the heel.Kangaroo leather: lightweight, breathable, anti-microbial treated.
