The women-specific Latch mountain bike shoe has one of Giro's newest fits that brings the foot closer to the pedal and flattens the sole profile, optimizing the contact patch between sole and pedal. For the sole, they collaborated with a team of rubber engineers to formulate Tack Rubber, a highly elastic compound that matches grip with durability. And at the heart of the shoe is a revelation in performance called Mute Foam, a midsole foam that's specially engineered with a slow-rebound action that cuts chatter and vibration to help keep you connected to the pedal, regardless of ruts, roots, and rocks. The unique combination of fit, a fast-drying microfiber upper, the grip of Tack Rubber, and the damping of Mute Foam makes Latch a new benchmark in flat-pedal performance.
