2022 Gran Fondo Awards
VOTED “BEST BRAND” SHOES

2022 Gran Fondo Awards

The riders have spoken. We are proud to announce that Specialized took top honors for best brand in road and gravel shoes at the 2022 Gran Fondo Best Brand Awards. When we focus on what our riders want the most, it makes sense that our shoes are loved year after year. Featuring our proven Body Geometry technology, we continue to lead the way in comfort and performance.

Product Details

Add Icon

When the moment comes for an attack in the hills, a long solo move, or a full gas sprint for the line, every watt counts, which is why we designed the S-Works Ares to be the most efficient and powerful performance shoe ever made. We combined decades of Body Geometry development with obsessive innovation working with the world’s best athletes to completely reimagine the race shoe. An entirely new, patent-pending closure system, Dyneema®-reinforced toungless sock, and ultra-stiff FACT Powerline™ carbon outsole eliminate foot roll, reduce pressure on tendons, and transfer every ounce of power to the pedals for unprecedented performance and comfort. It’s 1% faster than any shoe we’ve ever made, and at the finish line, that’s all that matters.

  • The key to more comfort, less injuries, and higher power output comes from our ergonomically designed, scientifically tested Body Geometry features—Longitudinal Arch, Varus Wedge, and personalized insoles with a Metatarsal Button. When used in harmony, these three features align the hip, foot, and knee, while also limiting medial/lateral knee movement and maintaining good circulation down to your toes.

  • Patent-pending closure design secures the foot for extreme, out-of-saddle efforts, locking the metatarsals and preventing lateral roll.

  • Dyneema® is sandwiched between layers of synthetic and TPU to create no-stretch zones for the ultimate connection and comfort.

  • Our stiffest and lightest FACT Powerline™ carbon plate maximizes power transfer: Stiffness Index 15.

  • Independent BOA® Li2 Fit System for on-the-fly micro-adjustment, backed by the Boa® Guarantee.

  • PadLock™ heel construction cradles the heel and is proven to improve acceleration.

  • Non-slip, replaceable heel tread with internally recessed screws for security.

  • Form Fit last with a roomy toe box for the ultimate in connectivity and comfort.

  • Titanium alloy cleat nuts can rotate to position cleats 5mm rearward and fits all major 3-hole road pedals.

  • Approximate weight: 220g (1/2 pair, Size 42)

Killer shoes, tight til break in

Recommended by LBS owner, went a half size smaller in these, and even with Specialized green insoles, they work perfectly and make road rides more efficient overall, sprints, climbs, high cadence, walking around, etc. Tight to get into the first few weeks but, they loosen up, these are high performance, stiff shoes, if that's not your jam, you may want to go down a few notches in shoe selection. If you can legit pull 1,000-1,400W for a 20-25sec. sprint, then give these a try. As a former racer (tri & XC mtb) who just rides now to burn some beer or pizza off, these were pricey but worth it.

Misguided design

Bad design beginning to end. Requires a shoe horn to get heel past the pointless high top sock cuff. Bifurcated internal heel bolster digs into heel tissue in some effort to better hold the heel in place during the 1000 watt sprint almost no one can do. Toe is too roomy, BOAs struggle to cinch down ridiculously stiff uppers. Foot can either be sloppy inside this shoe or completely numb. There is no middle ground.

Unique & Complex Appearance

S-Works Ares is my first pair of Specialized road shoes. My previous shoes were Shot 40.5 & the sizing is similar. The length is the same, while the toe box is roomier. I really like the Team White colorway & the light weight of the shoes. I would prefer a shoe upper made from a synthetic glossy white material, instead of the stretchy mesh material.

bester Schuh am Markt

Ich bin vorher immer schon Specialized Schuhe gefahren (Torch 2.0 und 3.0) und hatte bei diesen aber das Problem der Zehenfreiheit im vorderen Bereich. Wenn ich die Schuhe zu fest zugedreht habe, sind mir die Füße eingeschlafen. Beim Ares ist das deutlich besser obwohl der Schuh eigentlich zur Gänze auf "Rennen" getrimmt ist, hat man vorne gefühlt mehr Platz ohne dass sich der Schuh schwammig anfühlt. Passform 1A - liegt dank dem Socken wie eine zweite Haut an, BOA System wie immer Weltklasse . Einsteigen in den Schuh ist etwas mühsam, benötige eine Schuhlöffel dafür ist der halt extrem gut und auch angenehm. Zur Größenorientierung: Normale Schuhgröße 41 lt. Specialized Größenberater 41.5 - Schuh wurde aber in 41 bestellt und passt wie angegossen

Poor design

These shoes are difficult to get on and off. Plus, the Boa system isn’t great. The upper tongue comes undone and alters the fit. Perhaps I bought the wrong size but it still feels like bad construction. Specialized is a great company and I don’t want to leave a negative review. But I wouldn’t recommend these shoes in particular vs. their other amazing products. Caveat emptor.

Still the best shoe I've tried

I have tried a fair number of bike shoes, including the S-Works 7, the Torch 2 and 3, and several by other manufacturers. The Ares is still my hands down favorite. Adjustable, COMFORTABLE, and tough. I picked up an extra pair (because...sale...) so I would have a backup in case it goes out of production and my main pair wears out (which it has shown no sign of doing)

Ares road shoe

I initially tried these shoes on and thought it was uncomfortable and difficult to put on and eventually ended up purchasing the Torch model. When they went on sale I couldn't help myself and ordered a pair. It turned out that there is a method to putting your feet into these shoes and after they are on they are totally comfortable. I rode the trainer for several days before taking them outdoors and they are fabulous! I had no way of knowing since I rejected them on the initial attempt in the store.

Comfortable, rigid and stable shoe

I was amazed how locked in my feet feel in sprints. The sole's rigidity and the shoe's lateral stability are fantastic.

Hands down the best road shoe I've ever had.

Length of these are also perfect but unfortunately the width are narrower at the ball of my foot and I had to return them. I was nervous about the “built-in sock” style but I’ll never find out now! Very stylish shoe - hope your fit is better than mine.

Wide Version Is Not Wide

I ordered both the regular and wide versions of the Ares in my size. Both are built on the same last, the wide version is no wider than the regular version. The wide version does appear to have more material in the upper, making it a “high volume” version, but Specialized shouldn’t claim that a shoe is wider when it’s not. The regular last does not come close to being wide enough for me.

Flexy forefoot and too much toe spring, otherwise great.

I recently bought a pair of Ares 49 Wide. They're wide enough in the forefoot, & narrow enough in the heel and ankle for me. Too much toe spring (which is completely redundant even if it is a sprinter's shoe, as the 'sock' and unconventional boa arrangement firmly plant your heel regardless), but bearable just about. Also despite using a midfoot adapter plate, thus moving the cleat back, they're badly lacking stiffness in the forefoot - it flexes a lot ... I assume they do not thicken and reinforce the carbon sole in the largest sizes, despite larger forces and levers. They're highly imperfect for the above mentioned reasons, but still better than anything else I've tried. The unique sock & boa arrangement, combined with the very soft upper make them both very secure and very comfortable in the heel / top of foot area. When these get refreshed, I hope they move to a flatter forefoot and stiffen it significantly in the largest sizes. Also, please add a metal mesh grille to the vent.

Great shoe, need to find fit

To start the shoes look great and on one foot I could tell would feel great in a bigger size. My feet can be between sizes slightly wider and one bigger than the other…not ideal! Although I could get both on any swelling from heat on a ride and I could imagine numbness and I tried on with thin cycling socks not normal cycling socks. The closure definitely feels like it will hold your foot securely with no lift, a problem I’ve been having with some other shoes. Will look to go up a size and buy again. They run smaller than my older sworks shoes

They are great but only last 6 months

These are one of the best Sprinting shoes out there. However, they are made with short lived materials. The strength of the shoe becomes the weakness - the inner sock. It will start tearing apart after roughly 4 months of normal usage and by the sixth month the shoes will be rendered useless.

Excellent shoe, true to size, comfortable, like the power delivery

In terms of length, fit was true to size. Purchased size 42.5 (US 9.3). I wear 9.5 shoes. Regarding width, the fit was perfect for me. My foot is on the narrow side. With socks, my foot is 4 inches wide at the widest point and 3 inches wide between the midsole and heel. The toe box is roomy. The shoe tapers down quite a bit as it approaches the heel, which some reviewers have said is too tight, but for my foot it was perfect. Unlike other reviewers, I did not find the shoe tedious to put on and didn't need a shoe horn. I just used my finger as a shoe horn. On rides the shoe feels very connected to my Speedplay pedals and delivers power efficiently particularly standing up on the pedals. Not surprisingly, the shoes are much lighter and better than my DMT carbon sole shoes that are seven years old. Highly recommend this shoe.

Great shoe, but tight in the mid-section and you'll need a shoe horn to get them on!

I got a pair of these while they were on sale. I wear 10.5-11 and got a 44.5. Sizing seems....accurate-ish! the length is fine, the toe box is ok for narrower feet but the mid section is pretty cramped. The sock type ankle area is nice but quite tight which makes them very difficult to put on. I suggest using a shoe horn. They're stiff and great looking, but time will tell if they remain a favorite or an expensive mistake.

Beautiful shoe, but...tight toe box in regular width.

They are a challenge to get on, but once on they are indeed comfortable. The upper is supple and the BOA fasteners are fantastic! Probably the best I've seen on any shoe. The shoe is aesthetically pleasing and well built, (though time will tell). My only issue, and it's a kind of a big one, is the toe box. I have narrow to average width feet and these are quite tight on the toes! Borderline uncomfortable but...not quite. They are not bad enough to return them, but something to keep in mind when ordering. Sizing seems accurate; I don't believe going a size up would help that issue. Very nice cycling shoe but on the expensive side! These are a pretty recent purchase so I'm curious to see if they will stretch out a bit as leather shoes sometimes do. Specialized did a lot of R & D on this shoe, and it is quite noticeable!

I wanted a comfortable and performing shoe and went by review and price point. The shoe runs true to European sizing (used my regular shoe size and match was good). I took the larger width version and that sizes a bit small so if you are hesitant between width size, I would err on larger. The tightening system works well. The shoe is a bit hard to get into, and is facilités by using a shoe horn (not essential). I used a special discount at 320 but would not pay full regular price. As comfortable as advertised but have yet to test on long putting

Excellent shoe stability and power transfer. Hard to wear initially

Asethetic: 4/5 Fit: 5/5 Ease of wearing: 1/5 Durability: 4/5 Ventilation: 4/5 Asethetic - Polarising for some. Form follows function. Fit - S-works body geometry fits me like a glove. The toe box is roomier than road 7. Initially, the width felt very very tight. The hold on my mid foot is exceptional compared to the road 7. Inner sock looks high but it doesnt rub against the ankle Ease of wearing: Incredibly hard to wear compared to road 7 until i used a shoe horn. It was like the inner sock was going to tear. Durability: Rubberised toe guard is a positive over road 7. This will prevent scraping off the Dyneema on the toe area with wheel rub. Boa Li2 dials is non metal. Ventilation: Improved Summary: Exceptional footwear. The hold on the foot is nothing short of amazing, even coming from the pro level S-works Road 7. Look beyond the asethetic (form follows function), high price tag and shoe horn requirement and you will be duly rewarded on your rides. Hope this review helps

I really like this shoe! I i enjoy the fact that the socks allows you to enjoy a more chill ride without having to tighten up the laces, all while still feeling secure. Although i don’t have any issues taking the shoes on or off, i can see why others say it’s tad bit difficult due to the sock being so narrow. I also enjoy the ventilation the shoe offers. Most importantly, once you tighten those boas up the power transfer is elite!

I consider my feet on

I consider my feet on the wider side (though I don’t typically wear wide sized shoes) — these shoes feel very roomy in the toe box but also tight in all the right areas for me. May feel uncomfortable the first few rides if you’re not used to snugness everywhere but the toes. Can also depend on how much you tighten them. Feels great 1-2 weeks in. As far as stiffness, I found it fine. Works for me. Ventilation is fine, the hole underneath the toe box is nice. Overall A- , only complaint is the wires feel kinda flimsy/cheap.

I previously had a pair

I previously had a pair of nice LG road shoes. They were great but I bought them on sale, they were 1/2 size too small, and their color is "neon yellow". Needless to say....they didn't go with any of my outfits / bike (total 1st world problem). Regardless - I bought the S-Work Ares shoes because I liked the idea of the addtional ankle support, which means the stretchy...taller part where you slide your feet in. In addition, Boa system was a must (the only way to go in my mind). Love the stiffness - but more importantly, I love the form and fit. The additional ankle support / fit makes me feel more connected to my pedling. Enjoy.

The heel lockdown on these

The heel lockdown on these just isn’t an secure as it needs to be. There is too much slippage. Other Specialized shoes have worked better for me.

Virou minha favorita

Já tive outras sapatilhas Spz, mas essa é melhor que já experimentei, ela abraça o pé! Não me machucou na lateral do pé ou em provas, o solado é super rígido e tem o ajuste fácil do boa!
