Giro Latch

The Latch was designed to create the best possible connection between you and the flat pedal, especially when the trail gets fast and rough. They started with a fit that brings the foot closer to the pedal and flattens the sole profile, optimizing the contact area between the sole and the pedal. Then, they collaborated with a team of rubber developers to create Tack Rubber, a highly elastic compound that combines grip with durability in the Gamma profile design. The core of the shoe is the Mute Foam, a midsole foam specifically developed with a slow rebound characteristic that reduces jarring and vibrations, ensuring that you stay connected to the pedal regardless of ruts, roots, and rocks. The unique combination of fit, a quick-drying microfiber upper, the grip of Tack Rubber, and the cushioning of Mute Foam makes the Latch a benchmark for flat pedal performance.
