It's not just the DMT that Pogacar wears, but it's there The lightest DMT ever created is called Pogi's Superlight. The design and initial aesthetic impact are what have made this shoe famous since the first version, but over time the product has evolved and changed dramatically.
The new Pogi's Superlight is overall 15% lighter than the previous version, with optimal rigidity and a shape that makes this shoe also aerodynamically efficient. Let's see it in detail
The DMT with laces, now integrated
That rider who shows up with the yellow and black shoes and use laces, in the era of rotors. It was the Pogacar of 2020 and in that year he won the first Tour de France, but it actually also launched a trend Which is more relevant now than ever. Lace-up shoes have taken a significant share of the market, and several brands have imitated the lace-up cycling shoe.
The steps have been different in these five years and the The new Pogi's Superlight are the result of an evolutionary path of shapes, materials and technical solutions. Now they have integrated laces (no longer the classic strings) and in size 42 they reduced the weight by 11% (when compared to the older version), passing from 220 to 195 grams in size 42.
The upper and sole have changed
Not just a question of closure. The 3D upper It's been completely redesigned, making it lighter and more aerodynamic, comfortable, and highly breathable. The pocket above the tongue, which serves as a storage space for the lace tips, has been repositioned. The integration of Ice-Key technology is proposed again which allows the rider to be recognized in the event of an accident. The device is located inside the upper. DMT is the first footwear supplier to have integrated this technology.
All new too the Super Light full carbon sole, certainly lightened, but capable of maintaining an exceptional ratio between rigidity and weight. Like the sole, a replaceable rear stud made of two-component material.
Other things to know
The list price of the DMT Pogi's Superlight is 439 euros and will be available in full white or anthracite black. It is a type of footwear that focuses on the comfort and thermoregulation, but it was developed hand in hand with Pogacar and for this reason it remains a competition product. The 3D upper is well protected in critical areas and well structured, but the brand recommends not using harsh chemical detergents for cleaning.
