From our 2014 Buyer’s Guide:

The Vortex Pro’s Net Breathing system has 11 mesh sections on the sole. All this area means a good bit of air gets in to cool your foot. Even with these airier sections, the sole is stiff enough to make sure the force you pump out is channelled efficiently into moving the bike forward. Two Boa closures do an excellent job of holding the foot in, while the upper does a good job balancing the pressure exerted by retention system. The heel area has a high-grip fabric that feels quite rough when you run your finger against its nap. But that fabric helps to hold your heel firmly. Our scale puts one Size 42 shoe at 275 g.
