The Details
Finding the perfect high-performance pair of off-road shoes can be tough going, but with the Specialized S-Works Recon XC shoes, the choice can be simple. Exceptional power transfer? Check. Gram-counter approved? Check. Undeniable style? You got it. With the S-Works Recon shoes, you get off-road shoes that ready for any kind of adventure, whether it's gravel, cyclocross, or XC racing.
The sole utilizes a rubber toe and heel for superior off- the-bike traction, while the pontoons are made of a harder TPU to provide excellent stability and power transfer to the pedal. A completely refined Padlock™ Heel, meanwhile, packs in more comfort with the same exceptional heel hold that you found in the previous iteration. And finally with, the space-grade Dyneema™ material used in the upper doesn't stretch when pulled on, making sure that your foot stays where it's supposed to.
In the comfort arena, the Recon comes with the Body Geometry features you know and love from Specialized, like the Longitudinal Arch, Varus Wedge, and Metatarsal Button. Each one of these features have been ergonomically designed and scientifically tested to not only boost power, but also to increase efficiency and reduce the risk of injury. We also took luxury into account by designing the S-Works Recon XC to have form that complements its function, so you'll find seams that are bonded together, rather than sewn, cleaning up the lines and contouring to your foot with slipper-like comfort.
- Body Geometry sole and footbed for all-day exceptional comfort.
- Carbon Sole: Stiffness Index 13.0
- Form Fit last with a roomy toe box for the ultimate in connectivity and comfort.
- Great looking shoe that can do it all!
