Torch 3.0 Road Shoes

Unas zapatillas impresionantes , una gran inversión para tu deporte favorito y para tus pies y piernas , encantada con esta marca , son unicos

This is my first pair of shoes that have worked for me ( first time clipping in). The shoe is very sturdy and durable. I really appreciate having the half sizes. Double BOA really was a plus for fit. I tried a pair of Shimanos but in there defense only had single BOA's, but did not work for me. The toe section of the specialized shoes also were a better fit for me.

I have an issue with my Torch 3 shoes. Balls of my feet hurt after the 45 mile mark. Tried moving the cleats. Tried different pedals and cleats. Just wore them on a 7 day, 650 mile ride and they were killing me. Specialized support’s answer? Try a different brand. You know what? I will. Good riddance.

I don’t have narrow feet and these shoes fit perfect to me and are true to size. I’ve only worn them for about 200 miles and they felt perfect since day one. They’re the most comfortable shoes I’ve tried.

I bought these last year to replace a pair of Bontrage after one of my dogs ate the top of that pair. What was great about my prior shoes was that the winder (that tightens the "shoelace" worked smoothly and seamlessly, in part because you could pop it up a bit to unwind or wind, then push it back down. The winders on these shoes are awful. They are hard to grip, they do not pop up, and I spend inordinate amounts of time trying to get them off after a ride. This is not a "breaking in" issue because it's been this way the entire time. I simply would not buy these again.

These shoes have an initial decent fit, albeit really stiff in the uppers. Over a couple dozen rides, they have not broken in even slightly, so are really uncomfortable after about 15 miles. I’m constantly aware of that sensation. Also, the BOAs on these shoes jam easily with road grit, much more than past models.

The fit like a glove and light weight.

Such an awesome shoe but why do they not come in half sizes to cater to the wider foot?

This shoes are awesome, super duper stiff for awesome power transfer. They're just a tad narrow for my fat feet, but the toe box is roomy enough that they're still comfortable. Body geometry insole is about as good as you can get without a custom one. Heel cup is great, 0 heel movement without having to crank down on the boas.

The tongue is too short. The curved outer area over the upper BOA is rough and digs into your skin. Look at photos from above of the Torch 3.0 and the S-Works models - the tongue on the S-Works model is significantly longer, which should help with the problem, but this appears to be a huge design flaw. It's a shame the more expensive S-Works model BOAs don't support pull to release.

I went to check and potentially buy a pair of those new Torch 3.0, but they don't do a wide version, unfortunately. Then I tried S-Works Torch - wide version, but the problem is I need half size come on Specialized start doing the wide version in half sizes plus maybe do more than one color as you can only get it in black. I wanted to buy Torch as the "Body Geometry" feels nice, but I have to go somewhere else. The one-star review is just to maybe get someone's attention. Thanks.
