VR01 LUIGINO VERDUCCI

Designed for the pro, dedicated to the enthusiasts

Wearing the right kind of shoes is of paramount importance for a dynamic and powerful bike ride. Until very recently, technical footwear was perceived as something specifically targeted at athletes and professionals, something focused on performance. Nowadays, however, this is no longer the case. An increasing number of cycling enthusiasts are looking for a kind of sports footwear specially designed for cycling. But, what specs must a cycling shoe feature? In Luigino Verducci’s opinion, there is just a very subtle distinction, if at all, between a pro and a cycling enthusiast. The VR01 is an entirely handcrafted shoe, developed with the support of professional cyclists, thus enabling the production of a durable, comfortable and high performing technical shoe that features, besides its quality, an entirely customizable, dynamic and captivating design.

“VRO1 LUIGINO VERDUCCI”: ITS MAIN FEATURES

CARBON FIBER SHELL

When it comes to cycling performance, carbon fiber is undoubtedly the go-to material. Thanks to its lightness and stiffness features, carbon fiber allows a real boost in terms of power delivered to the pedal. Laboratory tests also show that the VR01, while increasing pedal efficiency, ensures a total comfort for the foot that is rarely, if ever, to be found in other top brands.

DUAL VENTILATION

Ventilation is provided by holes on the sides of both the shell and the upper part for a long lasting wellness and ventilation of the cyclist’s foot from the beginning up to the end of the bike ride.

ARCH SUPPORT

This is the main reason the “VR01 project” was created: guaranteeing maximum comfort for the arch of the foot whilst getting rid of any tension to proning. A foot that feels comfortable is the first step to achieving a winning pedaling power!

HEEL SUPPORT

Comfort and protection. The “tray” shaped bottom of the shell and the heel protection make sure that the only position that is possible for the foot is the correct one. The perfect fitting of the shoe safeguards the heel’s medial collateral ligament, in order to ensure a safer and more performing pedaling.

ANATOMICAL SHAPE

The shape of the shoe was designed and implemented to increase:
– Efficiency, in terms of power transmitted to the pedals
– Control, thanks to a wider supporting surface
– Maximum comfort

ATOP LACE SYSTEM

ATOP LACE SYSTEM is a double bi-directional fastening system that allows a quick, precise and ergonomic adjustment.
An essential fitting that makes adjustments easy even during the bike ride and, thanks to its innovative design, gives the shoe a glamorous look too.

HIDDEN SUPPORTS

One cannot see them, but they are definitely there. When the “VR01 LUIGINO VERDUCCI” shoe is produced, the upper part is reinforced with special materials that provide it with ruggedness and durability, without compromising its lightness.
These strategic adjustments are made to stand the test of time, making this one of the most long-lasting and sturdiest cycling shoes of its range.
