DMT KR1 Italian Champion Review

• To achieve the ultimate road racing shoe and one that befits Italian Champ, Elia Viviani, DMT has paired a multi-layer engineered 3D knit upper and a full carbon sole with an IP1 Boa Fit System. This limited edition colourway features the upper in Italian Tricolour colours and the signature of Viviana on the toe.  3D Knit Technology Upper Beginning with the 3D knit, this 3mm knit system features carefully engineered zones to hold and support the foot perfectly, giving you an incredibly breathable but stable platform for smooth pedalling. Using their ‘In Shape’ engineering DMT have ensured no material is wasted and removed the need for any type of stitching or glueing, creating an incredibly light and comfortable structure – once you’re putting the power down you’ll soon forget about your shoes – just how it should be. Carbon Outsole Next comes the Carbon Sole. This sole unit is anatomically shaped to give stability during the pedal stroke and with a balance of stiffness and comfort, you can be sure that no power is being wasted in the sprint for the line. To complement the light and airy upper the sole also features ventilation, allowing air to circulate around the whole foot, giving incredible comfort when temperatures rise.  Boa Fit System Lastly, the IP1 Boa system offers easy and precise adjustment of the fit, while also being incredibly light in weight. Thicker, reinforced knit zones under the dial provide support while integrated 3D knit channels ensure smooth adjustment across the whole foot. With a simple twist of the single dial, you can tighten up for a sprint or loosen off for added comfort on hot days – no fuss, just quick and direct adjustment.  An ankle collar in an elastic rib provides the final touch, creating an impressively snug and comfortable fit.  In the hectic rush of a sprint finish and during intense training sessions you can rely on DMT’s KR1 Italian Champion shoes to deliver power and comfort in equal measure. If you want to be just like Elia and crush sprint opponents then slip on the KR1s and get to the line first.
