Product Details

Add Icon

The Torch 2.0 Road shoes are all about comfort—well, comfort and performance that is. Due to the materials, road shoes often feel stiff and uncomfortable. We decided to address this annoyance head on, though. To do so, we've implemented a 100% mesh and TPU construction on the Torch 2.0 that allows for more wiggle room in the toe box and a less constrictive, sock-like feel. The upper is then paired with our medium-stiffness FACT carbon sole and a rubber heel and toe that provide the perfect degree of off-the-bike traction. For the closure, we added a single lightweight Boa® IP1 dial that features tool-free snap replacement capability, while also providing simple, on-the-fly micro-adjustments.

  • Body Geometry sole construction and footbeds are ergonomically designed and scientifically tested to boost power, increase efficiency, and reduce chance of injury by optimizing hip, knee, and foot alignment.

  • Carbon sole with a 7.0 Stiffness Index is engineered to be moderately stiff, yet light with a rubber heel and toe for off-the-bike traction.

  • Lightweight Boa® IP1 Fit System for on-the-fly micro-adjustment, backed by the Boa Guarantee.

  • Mesh and TPU upper for a supple fit.

  • Three-bolt cleat pattern fits all major road pedals.

  • Approximate weight: 235g (1/2 pair, Size 42)

supportive and comfortable

I replaced an old pair of Specialized road shoes and was worried the fit may have changed over the years - but it was a perfect fit. I have three or four rides (about 100 miles) on the shoes and haven't had any problems yet. They still need time to break-in but I found it comfortable right out of the box.

Doubt anyone would find these comfortable

Look great. Wide enough. Really wanted to like them but the tongue is too long making them unwearable due to rubbing at ankle joint. Couldn’t wear them for even the shortest ride. Can’t believe Specialized has put their name to these shoes. I’ve worn Specialized for the last 15 years and now have changed because of these shoes.

Not a good fit

I wear a 11&1/2 so tied on a 46(12) and it was too long so I thought the 45.5 would be the right size. After several rides it was apparent that the shoe box was too narrow and was pressing on the top of my right foot. My feet are not wide but these shoes are not good for me. Perhaps if you have slender feet they’ll work.

Great upgrade from Torch 1

I have ridden with Torch 1 shoes for over two years. They are excellent shoes, but the Torch 2 is even better, It has an improved boa system and stronger heel cup. It is snugger with a more stable fit. At the sale price, it is a bargain. I couldn’t be happier with Specialized quality, both in my Specialized bike and shoes.

Nice update after 20 years...

Was a bit nervous about switching off of my 20+ yr old Sidi's, but, damn, if these shoes ain't the bomb. Huge toe box, my feet are much cooler now and I can actually flex my toes. Much lighter than the Sidi's (albeit different vintage). Works great with LOOK KEO cleats. They center nicely, and I run the float reds. Highly recommend these shoes.

Not sure what ballerina feet most people have

I have some Recon shoes from specialized in size 9 and they fit decent, so I thought ordering the same size with these road shoes would work as well. But alas, they are too narrow. My feet are exceedingly normal and not wide in any way, but these still do not fit. Length is great, but width is not. Also another annoying thing is the tongue is too long so it digs into the top of your foot. Not sure how they came to this design cause I can't imagine how that works for anyone's foot. Nice shoes otherwise and insanely stiff with the carbon soles. Definitely try on in person if possible.

Good fit. Looks nice on a leg. Yet keep in mind if you get under the rain these shoes stays wet, and don't have any ventilation on the bottom. So you'll keep cycling with all water in. Inner part of the shoes pretty hot for summer, I cycled in +25 C it was a bit uncomfortable.

Great Shoe!

The fit, feel and look of the shoes are all fantastic. I’ve put over 100 miles on the shoes already, and I’m convinced they are worth every penny I spent on them. Super comfortable with no pressure points anywhere within the shoes. The Boa lacing system makes setting the fit to my preference very simple. I already had a pair of the Torch 1.0 shoes, and the 2.0 shoes are, in my opinion, worth the slightly higher price. And, since the 2.0’s were on sale the decision to “step up” was a no-brainer.

Shoe is okay, not great

For the price, this shoe is okay. It may take some time to break in, but the shoe's upper doesn't feel very supple. My last pair was an S-works shoe, so I know there's a quality difference, but I was hoping for more. I may just need to spend some more time in these shoes, but after just one ride: PROS: the toe box is comfortable, soles feel stiff for power transfer, BOA system, heel cup seems to grip nicely // CONS: tongue digs into the front of my ankle (glad it's got a padded edge), upper seems stiff (might just need to break in), volume is slightly weird (toe box is comfy, but wide part of my foot is pressured to outside edge of shoe, it's not evenly wide from toe to midfoot)

Cannot get shoes to fit

With 2 comfortable pairs of specialized shoes size 45 already, I felt confident ordering these online - nope way too long and also too narrow. Ordered the 44, still heel slipping and even more cramped on the toes. Maybe specialized have changed their foot models? 2 stars because they're well made and light, but no use if you can't get them to fit your feet without heel rising. Shame their older makes fitted my plates beautifully..

Size runs a bit smaller

Size runs a bit smaller than previous Specialized road shoes - though certainly within general sizing expectations. But was able to dial in a good fit. Two adjustments I would like to see. 1) the tongue is a tad long - causes discomfort on front of ankle. 2) who decided that the left Boa should be backwards? Goes against all conventions! (Righty Tighty; Lefty Loosey)

Great shoe overall. I used to have a pair of the torch 3.0's, but these have a nice stiff carbon sole, and I prefer the boa mechanism on the 2.0 (on the 2.0, it allows you to "quick-release" by popping the dial upward, but on the 3.0 you have to unwind it by twisting). It's a small thing, but nice to just pull your shoes off quickly at the end of a ride.

Not Loving It

I've been riding in Spec Elites for 4 years and loved those shoes, until a buckle broke...so I moved to the Torch 2.0 for the replacement. The heel fits well, and there's plenty of room in the toe box. The BOA lives up to the same and tightens across the foot uniformly. However, both shoes present a hot spot on the outboard sides of my feet, no matter how tight or loose BOA is adjusted. It was not apparent in the store, but I feel it (worse in my right shoe) with repetitive downward movement when pedaling. It feels like there is an object in the shoe that presses against my foot. I'm trying to work with my LBS on my options...I'm just not loving the Torch 2.0. I may move to a different brand altogether.
