I really liked these shoes when I first tried them up but after an hour of wearing them they started to pinch a little around the ball of my foot. I do have slightly wider feet than normal. Otherwise these looked great and were light weight, they just weren't quite right for my feet

Specialized Torch 2.0 Road Cycling Shoes
Specialized's new Torch 2.0 Road Cycling shoes are perfect if you're eager to elevate your performance with style and comfort. They strike the perfect balance between high performance and comfort, providing reliable shoes for your first group ride or intense spin sessions.
Specialized's Body Geometry specialists dedicated their time to produce a shoe that provides excellent support and performance without compromising comfort. By honing and developing the footbed and sole, the Body Geometry specialists have enabled their riders to maximise power through the entire pedal stroke for the duration of their rides. The excellent support and mould of this footbed means a reduced chance of injury, optimising the hip, knee and foot alignment while clipped into the pedals.
Constructed from a thermally bonded synthetic and 100% mesh upper, the Torch 2.0 proves to have a less constrictive fit, providing more wiggle room around the toe box with a sock-like feel. With the added feature of the lightweight Boa® Li2 dial closure that dissipates the closing pressure of the straps across the top of the foot, you get more support and improved comfort.

Carbon Sole
The moderately stiff yet lightweight carbon sole boasts excellent power without compromising comfort. These shoes, conveniently designed with rubber heels and toes, aid power transfer through each pedal stroke, so you can propel yourself up those hills and sprint effortlessly and without worry.
For a more efficient ride, equip yourselves with the stylish Torch 2.0, a lightweight shoe designed around the rider's comfort without compromising performance.
Sizing note:
Specialized road shoes run approximately half a size small. When in doubt, size up — most customers find they need one size larger than their usual EU size.

About Specialized
Innovate or die.
Founded in California in 1974, Specialized began with a simple promise: serious riders deserve serious gear. Half a century later, the brand still funds its own wind tunnel, builds its own carbon, and tests every bike with the world's best so that you ride your own best.
The first production mountain bike. The first cycling-specific shoes. FACT carbon, the Win Tunnel, S-Works. Specialized has a habit of building the things the rest of cycling ends up copying.
