Pure Power. Total Control. Everyday Performance.

The Zuatu Z001 is a high-performance road cycling shoe engineered for riders who demand maximum power transfer, stability, and long-ride comfort—without compromise.

Rooted in Zuatu’s professional track and peloton DNA, the Z001 brings race-proven carbon technology into a shoe designed for serious everyday riding. Handcrafted using premium materials and refined through real rider feedback, it delivers a precise, locked-in feel while remaining comfortable enough for long training days and demanding race efforts.

This is not an entry-level carbon shoe.

This is performance, refined.

Why Riders Choose the Z001

  • Exceptional power transfer thanks to a 9-layer full carbon sole
  • Outstanding foot stability even at high watt outputs
  • Comfort on long rides — not a “race-only torture shoe”
  • Precise fit without pressure points
  • Stable feel during sprints, climbs, and standing efforts
  • The shoe disappears — only the ride remains

How It Feels on the Bike

From the first pedal stroke, the Zuatu Z001 delivers a feeling of total control.

Your foot is firmly fixed—never cramped, never floating. There’s no lateral movement inside the shoe, even during hard accelerations or out-of-the-saddle efforts. Power feels immediate and direct, with no delay or loss.

On long rides, the comfort stands out: no numbness, no hot spots, no pressure buildup. The shoe supports your foot rather than fighting it—allowing you to focus entirely on cadence, power, and rhythm.

This is the kind of fit where you stop thinking about your shoes—and simply ride.
