Quoc\u2019s new Lalashan collection is inspired by the fungi found in the mountains near Taipei and includes, of all things, a pair of sliders.<\/p>\n

The colours in the range are inspired by the mushrooms found in Taiwan. The collection features fungi-derived pastel colours in the form of dusty pink and amber models, and organic patterns in the detailing such as the breathable air holes of the shoe.<\/p>\n

The Lalashan collection consists of five new models, all of which are available now in sizes EU38 through to EU47.<\/p>\n

Quoc has a reputation for designing stylish performance footwear, from its original handmade leather Fixed<\/a> shoe right up to last year\u2019s slick Gran Tourer II<\/a> gravel shoe. It has even branched out into an SPD-compatible Chelsea boot<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Gran Tourer XC is Quoc\u2019s premium shoe for gravel riding<\/a>, cross-country riding and ultra-distance racing.<\/p>\n

The shoe has a one-piece upper with a single stitched seam at the heel.<\/p>\n

It features twin adjustment dials and a generously padded tongue. The outsole combines a stiff carbon midsole with a grippy, soft TPU tread.<\/p>\n

The shoes come with a soft bag, multiple-depth arch supports and two sets of studs (short and long). Our test pair weigh in at 371.6g each in size 45 with long studs.<\/p>\n
