Review: Excellent race shoes – expensive, but if they fit they’re worth it… cycling LivCyclingUK
was uniquely shaped, effectively missing a solid platform under the arch. Negative feedback on this design led to a more conventional shape, with a very hardwearing heel pad and toe cap.
Unusually, the two micro-adjustable Boa Li2 dials work with what Liv calls an 'ExoWrap' inside the shoe, to wrap the foot and pull it upwards into the shoe rather than downwards, as is the case with most cycling shoes. The ExoWrap is basically a tongue that sits on the arch-side of the shoe and has the Boa laces integrated into it, so when you tighten the dials, the tongue gets pulled up and around the arch.
The upper is covered in polyurethane, with welded front-facing seams to give a clean, aerodynamic finish, and laser-cut micro-perforations decent breathability. I've never noticed my foot overheating, though I was testing in temperatures only up to about 22°C. Conversely, I didn't feel the need for an extra layer on cool mornings nearing 5°C.
Liv's reasoning for this excessive length is: 'We received input from testers that adding more length would allow them to open the shoe to a greater extent for airing out between rides and allow for easier foot insertion.' Liv even went out of the way to send comprehensive instructions on shortening the Dyneema after I'd asked if it was possible.
