Technical reasons that led MICHELIN Motorsport – the crown jewel of the Clermont-Ferrand Company – to choose to use this shoe for the new season.

The outsole features a tread design that draws inspiration from the Michelin S1 motorbike tire, which has a special tread pattern designed for mud with tall, sharp, widely spaced sculptures to increase ground contact patch. The layout of the insole offers stability and side control, while the tread pattern on the heel facilitates deceleration and braking.
