New Vaypor shoe editions from Bont

04/01/2011

Australian cycling footwear company Bont has announced it will release additional versions of its latest Vaypor road model.

The new Vaypor WCE (World Champion Edition) honours Thor Hushovd's world championship win in October 2010 in Geelong, Australia with rainbow stripes on the forward strap and sides as well as a Norwegian flag on the heel.

Also new for 2011 is a Vaypor Premium range, featuring laminated silver fibreglass fibres integrated into the microfibre uppers.

Altering the glass fibre construction will save a bit of weight, though Bont's Steven Nemeth admits the difference will be "very small" and the changes amount mostly to an aesthetic upgrade. According to Mr Nemeth, the overall fit and feel of the premium models will be very similar to the standard Vaypor.
