Intermarché-Wanty extends its partnership with prestigious Italian brand Gaerne which continues to provide the riders of the World Team and Wanty-ReUz-Technord with shoes Made in Italy.
In 2023, both teams collected more than 40 victories with the CARBON G.STL model in white color remarkably light and high-performing shoes of Gaerne’s road collection which the riders will continue wearing in 2024.
Designed and developed with the experience gained from over 60 Years of Experience, for who strives for success! Superior comfort and max power transfer define the latest lightweight, high-performance Carbon G.Stl road shoes.
The upper is made of one-piece of microfiber with laser-drilling to provide heat dispersion and a perfect climate. Anatomic heel cup 1.0 with internal non slip treatment allows improved stability and the best foot control. The Infit Closure System features six fixing zones providing infinite adjustment and a precision fit.
The Ultra light and ultra-thin carbon fiber sole ensures every watt of power is transferred to the pedals while the stability of the foot is increased thanks to the shape of the sole in the plantar arch area. Four air vents guarantee ventilation inside the shoes.
"Shoes play a particularly important role in the equipment of a cyclist, because they transfer the power on the bike. With shoes of good quality, the power loss in the transfer is limited. Thanks to our collaboration with Gaerne, we can rely on one of the best shoes on the market with the Carbon G.STL model. In my opinion, the stiffness of the shoes is the most important quality for a sprinter like me. Also, the experts of Gaerne listen to our needs and react immediately taking our feedback into account. For all these reasons, we want to thank Gaerne for this partnership."
