fizik Winter road shoe Artica R5 GTX - black / white

Winter road shoes specifically tuned for use on road bikes with insulating fleece lining and a modern GORE-TEX membrane that provides waterproof protection and breathability, keeping your feet dry, warm, and above all comfortable.

The Tempo Artica GTX is a fully insulating, waterproof, and breathable winter road shoe. No matter how bad the weather is or what adventure you have planned, this shoe protects you from the harshest weather conditions.

Thanks to the insulating GORE-TEX Koala membrane, the Tempo Artica GTX is completely waterproof. This means you can rely on the proven performance that keeps your feet guaranteed dry when it really matters. But the advanced GORE-TEX technology not only reliably keeps the elements out but also ensures improved breathability.

The Artica GTX features two components that ensure an optimal fit - particularly important for effective power transfer on the road bike. The upper Velcro strap wraps around the ankle for a secure fit, while the lower part of the shoe is equipped with a single L6 BOA® dial for infinite adjustment.

The Artica GTX is lined with brushed fleece to protect the toes from cold and keep the feet warm. This brings two advantages: a soft layer that provides additional comfort for the feet and an increase in warmth for rides in the three-digit kilometre range, even at single-digit temperatures.

The newly designed R5 nylon outsole offers comfort and moderate stiffness for efficient pedalling. Additionally, the position of the cleats is slightly further back compared to conventional shoes to optimise pedalling efficiency and reduce pressure on the knees. In this winter-specific version, the outsole has no ventilation holes to keep the feet warm and dry.
