SAY GOODBYE TO COLD. SAY HELLO TO COMFORT.
Our vision for the Wölvhammer transcended traditional cycling footwear and originated from the conceptual standpoint of a mountaineering boot. On the inside we max out the insulation package with 200g Thinsulate on the forefoot and NASA-approved aerogel in the insole to block cold cleats. On the outside, 1000D CORDURA® and waterproof-breathable Sympatex block moisture and manage perspiration. For deep snow, easily add knee-high gaiters using the dedicated hook on the toe box. And of course, the Vibram sole is ready for any SPD-compatible cleat of your choice. These are the finest winter cycling shoes ever made.

Great shoes. They are insanely warm and comfortable but the top is very wide and when closed all the way it creates some slightly uncomfortable wrinkles unless you have a tall thick sock on (I wear them anyway but it would be nice to not need a super tall sock all the time. I ride with Crankbrothers Candy pedals and have had no issue with the snow packing into them and not being able to clip back in. Even after walking through a creek then knee deep snow the tread on the sole sheds snow extremely well. Overall I would recommend this shoe to anyone who wants a true winter riding shoe.
How do they fit?
They fit a little on the large side which is great to fit some thicker socks into.
Awesome shoe. Agree with freeski93 that the top is too large…same problem with the wrinkles. These things keep my feet so warm that I can’t ride with thick socks! I’m using regular old shimano SPDs and have no problem clipping in and out with snow.
Expensive, but built to last and worth every penny1
