S-Works Torch is the pinnacle of Specialized. Used by many professional teams equipped with Specialized gear, as well as those actually contracted to other brands.

- The new upper is reinforced in key areas while also providing so-called "adaptive fit" zones to create the right shape for the foot.
- A new base plate has been created based on data collected during Retül’s scanning process, which is 4 mm wider than the previous generation S-Works 7 shoe.
- Thanks to optimized construction, the new shoe is 20 g lighter than the S-Works 7.
- The asymmetrical heel cup supports the medial side while removing material from the lateral side, allowing for a lower upper.
- The new BOA® improves lockdown while reducing pressure on the instep ligaments.
- Three-bolt cleat patterns fit all major road pedals.
- Non-slip, replaceable heel pad with internally recessed screws for security.

ATTENTION! The new base plate is 4mm wider than the standard width (8mm wider than the S-Works 7).
