Supertech K FIA
DESCRIPTION
The Supertech K Shoe boasts a new, fully knitted upper construction which is designed to deliver the closest and most comfortable fit, adapting to the morphology of the feet even more, and resulting in improved comfort in the cockpit and reduced driver fatigue.
The ultra-lightweight Supertech Shoes feature a TPU heel cup for a secure heel lockdown and holding the foot firmly in place. The shoes have a molded midsole, which allows increased cushioning while providing maximum stability. The memory foam heel padding reduces vibrations from being transmitted to the heel and reduces discomfort, whilst the ultra-thin rubber outsole gives the driving feel required for maximum performance. It can also be worn with stretch laces to avoid the need to tie or untie the shoes, these come supplied in the box.
