Inspired to the technical characteristics of two popular Michelin tires, it’s realized with two different compounds (Dual Compound), softer in the inner part for better grip, a harder and more resistant one on the outside for improved shielding from abrasions and wear, X-Fire features aggressive sculptures in the toes area for optimal traction even on loose terrain, while those in the heel area help to improve grip and stability when the foot hits the ground. The cleat area – with extended adjustment range for greater versatility – was conceived with a special design for faster clipping and better grip. In addition, Northwave X-Crossbow construction extends the heel area’s elasticity, improving the shoe’s shock absorption.

Co-designed together with solesbyMICHELIN, the sole with Dual Layer Compound Technology guarantees excellent grip, minimized weight and better traction on the toe and heel, while increasing support and stability in the lateral area. The Duratherm Kelvin lining offers the best thermal insulation in the Gore-Tex® range, ensuring breathability and protection, moreover, thanks to the qualities of neoprene, the Easyfit collar guarantees mobility and protection from the instep to ankle. The “overlap” structure of the upper evenly distributes the closure pressure and helps transfer every watt of power while pedalling.

The full carbon sole – the new entry in the winter collection – is 100% unidirectional carbon with a stiffness index of 14.0 that combines stiffness with lightness.

Winter cycling shoe

Hyperlight XC sole made of 100% unidirectional carbon with a stiffness index of 14.0 for top power transfer 28% more abrasion resistant than TPU, the MICHELIN rubber inserts with dual-layer compound technology provide excellent grip with minimum weight.
Made with the patented XFrame 2® construction, the upper transfers every watt of power while providing the snuggest, even fit with no pressure points.

The Michelin Carbon Rubber Technology combines rubber and carbon in an unique and exclusive process, enhancing their particular characteristics and technical performance such as stiffness and lightness (carbon) and grip (rubber) in a single element.

Dedicated to professional XC athletes and to those who love racing on track.

• The double SLW3 dial differentiates the pressure between the top of the instep and the toe for even better adaptability

100% realized in unidirectional carbon fiber, it’s the outcome of biomechanical studies to locate materials only where actually needed for maximum efficiency, so to be able to combine very low weight and extreme rigidity. The sole’s sculptures are realized through the innovative Dual Layers Compound Technology, softer and harder compounds to increase flexibility, stability and adherence: the first provides maximum flexibility, while the second is tougher and more resistant, for improved traction and endurance.
