Fizik Vento Ferox MTB Shoes with Dual Closure & X1 Carbon Outsole

The Fizik Vento Ferox MTB Shoes are engineered for serious off-road riders who demand exceptional performance, durability, and comfort. Crafted with a lightweight yet tear-resistant PU laminated mesh upper, these shoes ensure breathability and robustness throughout your rides.

The dual closure system, featuring the POWERSTRAP at the instep and the Li2 BOA fit system at the forefoot, allows riders to independently adjust tension in these two key areas.
