The first PNS model of the Fizik Ferox Carbon was released in 2023 and the shoe with its minimalist Danish design quickly sold out. Now there is a second colour variant.

Pas Normal Studios, PNS for short, continues to rely on Fizik to keep the minimalist brand design alive in shoes. The shoe of choice is the Ferox Carbon Allroad shoe. We have already been able to test the first colour variant, a minimalist off-white. Now the shoe is also available in an aesthetic blue-grey.

Various areas of application

The Fizik Ferox Carbon was created for off-road racing, cross country and gravel. The carbon sole as well as the light and breathable upper material contribute to this. Allroad, a lively mix of gravel and tarmac, is also one of the possible uses.

With a dual fastening system, the instep and forefoot can be adjusted separately. This is designed to ensure a customised and secure fit. The Powerstrap Velcro strap on the instep secures the foot in the shoe. The whole thing is combined with a high-quality bidirectional Li2 Boa system on the forefoot.

Short and sweet

  • Upper: Durable and tear-resistant, woven mesh material over a PU-laminated upper
  • Closure: Li2 Boa Fit System in combination with Velcro fastener
  • Sole: carbon sole with rubber tread, stiffness index 10
  • Weight (manufacturer's specification): 297 grams
  • Sizes: 36 - 48 (sizes 37 - 47 are also available in half sizes)
  • Fields of application: Gravel, Allroad, Race, Cyclocross, Cross Country MTB
  • Price: 330 Euro
