Unbreakable drive, mile after mile.

Engineered for riders who refuse to treat shoes as disposable, the Z001 Pro Wear Resistant takes Zuatu’s flagship race platform and armours it for the long haul. A reinforced micro-fibre upper with an abrasion-blocking outer film shrugs off scuffs, gravel spray and muddy hike-a-bike sections, while the same ultra-stiff full-carbon sole found in the Z001 Pro channels every watt straight into the pedals. The result: pro-level power transfer wrapped in durability you can actually rely on.

Why you’ll love it

• Built to last – hard-wearing micro-fibre upper plus a transparent PU guard layer delivers exceptional cut and scratch resistance without adding weight.

• Race-grade rigidity – metal 3k carbon keeps flex to a minimum, turning lung-burning efforts into raw speed.

• Heat-mouldable fit – heel cup and arch areas can be thermo-shaped at home for a locked-in, zero-hot-spot feel.

• Dialled retention – dual-zone micro-adjust dials (replaceable) cinch the shoe evenly across the instep; a quick pop to release after the ride.

• All-day ventilation – front and rear air-channel ports move heat out and fresh air in, keeping you cool on summer climbs.

• Ready for any foot – offered in Average, Wide and Narrow lasts and an expansive EU 35 – 49 size range for precision volume control. 

• Replace-and-ride – screw-in heel pads and stainless-steel cleat nuts extend service life; compatible with all standard 3-bolt road cleat systems.

Suggested use

Road racing • Gran Fondos • High-frequency training • Mixed-surface endurance rides where abrasion resistance is critical.
