Alpinestars Faster-4 Road Cycling Shoes - Black and White, US 13 (Part No. 2510425-12-13)

The Alpinestars Faster-4 shoes are designed to deliver high performance, comfort, and durability for serious road cyclists. Crafted with a seamless knitted construction, these shoes are extremely lightweight and breathable, making them ideal for long rides in warm conditions. The main upper material features advanced microfiber with thermo-welded panels, providing an innovative blend of flexibility, structural integrity, and a sleek aesthetic. The 3D mesh lining enhances breathability and reduces weight, ensuring your feet stay cool and comfortable throughout your ride. Anti-sliding microsuede on the heel offers additional stability and grip, while the soft microfiber back flexion point improves both flexibility and back protection, contributing to overall riding comfort. The medial quarter area combines seamless design with soft TPU inserts to offer extra support and comfort where it’s needed most. A soft textile rear collar enhances comfort and allows for better back flexion, reducing fatigue during extended riding sessions. Support and protection are further increased by the unique Thermoplastic Rubber (TPR) elements on the lateral calf, slider details, and toe-box, which also contribute to flexibility and durability. The traditional lace closure system ensures an easy and secure fit, complemented by an ergonomic TPR strap with lateral hook-and-loop closure for quick adjustments. Additional support features include an extended TPU ankle area for increased lateral stability, TPR heel counters for support, and an asymmetrical toe design to protect the shift zone. The sole is constructed from rubber with textured grip, excellent shock absorption, and an integrated shank for enhanced support, with extra durability at the heel. The heel dampening midsole and replaceable anatomical EVA foot-bed with Lycra lining provide added comfort and shock absorption. Medial dual-density ankle protectors are positioned between the upper and padded lining to offer strategic protection and flexibility, while reinforced internal toe box and heel counter layers ensure ergonomic support. These shoes are engineered to meet the demands of passionate road riders, combining advanced materials and thoughtful design for optimal performance and comfort.
