Seen here on Boonen, also on Garrett Chow of Specialized. So guessing they are a new or limited release from said company. Gee dang it these are sharp. Prettier to me than the Rapha GTs, and the Boa system has always intrigued me.

Anyone have more information on them?

Thanks.

That's got to be it. They made a few with a tennis shoe bottom for riders to wear on the podium. Very cool.

Contador was testing a similar shoe earlier this year. My guess is the next gen S-Works road shoe.

Not the Bonts on the Garmin rider, look at Boonen's all white Specialized shoes.
