Combine an iconic minimalist style with maximum performance. The Empire™ SLX II shoe offers the power of a brand new forged carbon fibre outsole and the comfort of the new flat-woven Synchwire upper, all in a lightweight package of 221 g (size 43).

This new version has a slimmer silhouette that combines the lightest weight with the highest levels of comfort and breathability thanks to its flat-woven Synchwire upper. Its unique construction incorporates ventilation directly into the upper, reinforced by a thermally bonded TPU coating. The 7 traditional lace eyelets ensure unmatched support and comfort, while the new forged carbon fibre outsole improves stiffness by 20Nm, all in a lightweight of 221 g (size 43). The Empire SLX II embodies the finest evolution of an iconic model that has brought laces back in style.

Monofilament TPU Mesh - The one-piece woven monofilament TPU upper optimises power transfer with exceptional comfort and breathability, eliminating seams and enhancing performance.

Unidirectional forged carbon plate - Developed from motorsport technologies, forged carbon fibre allows the creation of complex shapes that are impossible to achieve with traditional composites. Its unique structure offers superior adaptability to variations in thickness, cleat placements, and multidimensional curves, ensuring optimal performance. The Empire SLX II plate is 20Nm stiffer than the previous version.

Supernatural Fit System - Our Supernatural Fit System includes an insole and an adjustable arch support with low, medium, and high support inserts. Adjust the arch support to enhance comfort and pedalling efficiency while reducing the risks of common discomforts such as numbness, pressure points, and cramps.
