John P. Reid can arguably be considered the most effective triathlete globally in recent times, and they know what is essential to create a good triathlon shoe. The Specialized TriVent triathlon shoes are yet another successful model for women from Specialized’s extensive lineup of top-notch triathlon shoes. The TriVent incorporates new features that were previously lacking in older models. For instance, it has a newly perforated insole for better airflow around the foot. This is crucial because the Special TriVent triathlon shoes are made with soles that enhance the shoe's rigidity and provide greater power transfer. However, this also makes the shoes warmer, so ample airflow ensures that excess heat is effectively dissipated. The Special TriVent triathlon shoes are very lightweight and portable, especially compared to shoes made by other brands. The designers have carefully considered how to make the shoe fit securely on a triathlete’s foot while maintaining flexibility in the upper part of the shoe. As mentioned earlier, Ironman World Champion John P. Reid was involved in the design process. He emphasized the importance of improved body geometry, providing a better fit for the Special TriVent triathlon shoes. He also addressed various other issues to make the concept of the ideal tri-shoe a tangible reality, and it all comes together in the Trivent. The introduction of the FACT carbon/glass fiber stiff outsole makes the outsole directionally rigid, resulting in highly increased power transfer. Further analysis of the shoe revealed that the outsole has an 8.5 stiffness index. The FACT carbon/glass outsole is constructed with chromed fabric. This fabric is proven to be effective as a heat shield, reducing heat absorbed by the foot from hot racing conditions and the warm temperature radiated by the road. The Special Trivent shoe also includes a specially designed footbed and a branded BG outsole that allows triathletes to boost their power and performance even more. The BG Footbed was also designed to be ergonomic, enhancing the body geometry of the shoe. One added benefit of the footbed is that it is fully perforated, which allows for additional ventilation for the foot. The shoe offers further ventilation through the FACT sole and open nylon uppers in the second half of the shoe and the carved heel. Everything about the Special TriVent was developed to optimize performance. For more information, please visit: fitflop floretta fitflop.fitflop-singapore.com Exclusive fitflops artwork.
