GORE-TEX insulated Koala membrane
Whether it’s rain, sleet or even snow, the waterproof GORE-TEX insulated Koala membrane prevents moisture from seeping inside your shoes. And while water droplets can’t get inside, the micropores of the membrane do still allow moisture molecules from sweat vapour to escape. The result is warmer and drier feet for longer.

Durable Upper
Winter is a testing time for you and your equipment. And as such, Fizik have ensured the Artica X5s are made to meet those harsher winter conditions. The high-density, PU-laminated upper is extremely durable while still delivering the comfort you’d expect for those longer base-building rides.

Fleece Lined
As soon as you slip the Artica X5s on, you’ll feel the luxurious and cosy comfort of the ultra-soft brushed fleece lining. This hugs your feet in an insulating and breathable layer, fending off the icy tentacles of winter temperatures.

L6 BOA® Closure System
Whether you’ve got your cosy winter gloves on or you’re suffering from cold hands, you don’t want to be messing with laces or straps to get your shoe fit right. And so Fizik have deployed the ever simple and easy to adjust L6 L6 BOA® Closure System. Micro-adjustment allows you to get the fit just right, and you can adjust on the go.

X5 Outsole
​Fizik have given the Tempo Artica X5 their X5 outsole. Made from a Nylon composite, it gives the shoe an ideal balance of stiffness, pedalling support and comfort. Press on the pedals and you’ll be propelled forward quickly and efficiently, but there’s enough flex for comfort over long distances too. Leave the expensive carbon soles for summer race days. The rubber tread offers a tenacious grip on rocks, roots and muddy terrain while the wider heel platform gives extra reassurance on particularly slippery ground. And for the muddiest of conditions, toe studs can be added.

These MTB shoes are compatible with MTB pedal systems, which use cleats with SPD standard (2-bolt standard), e.g.: Shimano SPD, Time ATAC, CrankBrothers, CrankBrothers Race, Look MTB, Xtreme MTB, Wellgo MTB, Ritchey MTB.
