Lances shoes are custom made Nikes which look to be a mix between a Bont and something Nike did a few year ago. Doesn't like like they will ever be available though.

Custom made by Bont to meet Nike specs/looks.

Don't hold me to it, but that is what I was told by someone who seems to be in the know.

Pair posted above I believe are still manufactured by Nike. The pair Lance is/was wearing are one off customs supposedly by Bont.

Didn't DMT always make the Nike shoes that the stars wore? Maybe not the recent ones that Lance wore, but certainly those he wore before he retired, for the first time.

Correct. Just as Nallini made their clothing.

I hope you're all having a cheerfull monday (if those excist)

I stumpled upon a few pictures of Mark Cavendish in his new Quick-Step outfit, in a Cycling News article. I really, really liked the leathery looks of his white shoes, and now i want you guys to help me identify them!

Looks like 2013 Specialized S-Works to me.

That was also my thought. Especially Cavendish being back on specialized and so... But the Specialized webpage dosen't have the shoe in the white leathery look.

It would simply be too unfortunate if it's a special Cav-shoe, not avaliable to public.
