Team Sky's Stannard and LottoNL-Jumbo's Kruijswijk were two of the 2015 Tour's most dedicated, unsung gregarios, sacrificing their own chances at stage success to help their respective leaders with long, anonymous hours toiling in the wind. Though Stannard is a rouleur for the stones and transitional valleys between climbs and Kruijswijk is a super domestique climber, they do have one thing in common; they both opt for Shimano's Limited Edition SH-R321 Cycling Shoes to carry them through their support duties. The key difference between the standard and limited editions is the color, with Shimano bucking the black-or-white trend in favor of its own signature blue. And they definitely stand out -- admit it, like us, you lusted after the R321 Limiteds immediately on first noticing them spinning along in sharp contrast to the celeste of LottoNL-Jumbo's Bianchi's and the yellow of the title sponsor. Happily for the stylish cyclist, their distinctive looks don't come at the cost of a weight, stiffness, or comfort penalty; other than the color, they include the same features as Shimano's standard white and black model. These features start on a whimsical note with a mint-scented, antimicrobial treatment to the interior that'll keep them from stinking-up your kit bag by day 21. The customizable thermo-form fit of both the upper and the insole are a bit more necessary for mid-ride comfort, as they let you mold the shoes to your feet for a custom-made feel that may not even be trumped by a pair of one-off carbon cycling slippers from the mid-race, beer-swilling Hansen, who rides for the other Lotto team. Shimano continues to up the ante with its proprietary Dynalast construction, which increases pedal efficiency by a claimed . 56% on each stroke. While that doesn't seem like much at first blush, any cyclist who's ridden for longer than two hours understands the importance of marginal gains like this.
