Specialized today launched the S-Works Torch Lace, its new top-end laced road shoe to complement last year’s Boa-dial-equipped S-Works Torch and replace the S-Works 7 Lace.
The new slippers borrow a lot of technology from its Boa dial sibling, including a wider sole, a supple upper, and an asymmetric heel cup. It’s also significantly lighter than its Sub-7 predecessor and features a timeless and sleek aesthetic with minimal branding. Best of all, it’s $100 cheaper than the flagship, Boa dial version.
