Not exactly the warmest shoe, but with lots of positive feedback from the testers: the Celsius XC is very comfortable to wear - almost like a summer shoe. The stiff sole and slim fit make racers happy. However, the high neoprene sock could be a little tighter.
Northwave Celsius XC Arctic GTX
40Product details
Celsius XC Arctic GTX Reflective / Fluo Yellow Northwave has always defied the cold with winter shoes that draw on expertise gained from years of developing snowboard boots. Our cycling shoes all feature a Gore-Tex membrane. Power transfer is ensured by the carbon sole reinforced with studs, providing stability on all surfaces. The "Overlap" structure of the shaft evenly distributes the closing pressure and helps transfer all the force while pedaling. The SLW3 "Step by Step" rotor closure allows for a precise fit, even with winter gloves. The EasyFit Climaflex neoprene inner shoe, combined with the high flexibility of the Gore-Tex membrane, ensures optimal mobility and protection. The heel is well enclosed and positioned thanks to the anatomically shaped footbed and the strong, thermoformed heel cap. The 4-layer insole offers excellent thermal insulation. For your safety, the shoes are 360° reflective to ensure better visibility in traffic.
