Blivet Botte Quilo
Expected temperature: Up to -18 ° Celsius / -4 ° Fahrenheit
Welcome to Blivet Sports Holy Grail, the QUILO.
Every season Blivet Sports brings the bar higher. The QUILO was once more fine-tuned this season, and what was still to be improved on this magic moccasin? The outsole and the toe box room!! BOOM!
Another excellent Vibram ® product, the Wolftrax outsole. The Wolftrax offers better traction, better stability foot/pedal and a longer and wider cleat zone. The Wolftrax was designed with a tiny different toe curvature which means new manufacturing lasts. This change opened the door to widen our toe box by 3mm and lengthen it by 2mm; the Quilo now has 4E+ toe box room... pretty much ''true size'' and the largest in the industry. All the required materials for its construction were carefully studied for maximum comfort, performance, and aesthetics.
Sturdy synthetic leather panels on a beautiful matte finish. The internal material (from toe to ankle height) was specifically chosen to eliminate as much moisture as possible, which often causes frostbite. The inner layer is a breathable material that dries quickly. Microfleece at the top of the boot for great comfort. The LISZT AIR "TOEBOX," a unique design to maximize comfort and keep the toes as far away as possible from the cold surface of the boot.
Still by far the lightest boot in the industry, the QUILO offers an excellent ''cold protection'' index. You will find 200g of insulation Thinsulate 3M ™ as well as a highly efficient Ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) thermal wall. Blivet pays special attention to keep the cold transmitted by the cleat's counterplate, but also in the whole outsole without forgetting our ''LISZT AIR TOEBOX'' design with extraordinary volume at the toes. Comfortable to walk with, greater flexibility at the ankle, no compromise in the stiffness of the Wolftrax outsole. Vibram ® which provides excellent power transfer when pedaling, an outsole width reminding the one of a summer shoe, with a reduced volume. The QUILO is equipped with two laces that independently and precisely adjust the foot and ankle area for optimal comfort. With a wide tightening strap positioned at the calf and an overall height of 21cm from the ground, the snow will never reach you.
The QUILO is definitely the best winter cycling boot on the market.
