Australian shoemaker Bont only recently entered the U.S. market, but it has already significantly upped the ante when it comes to at-home moldable shoes with its sole, insole and upper. The monocoque sole is the stiffest we've tried and, at 3.6mm, it has the lowest stack height we've found. To mold it, heat the a-one in a 160-degree oven for 20 minutes then put it on, allowing the shoe to form to your foot. You can remold the shoe multiple times until you eliminate hot spots and achieve absolute power transfer. Buy It: If you want the stiffest sole available with a near-handmade fit Forget It: If you like to take cafe breaks; these are ProTour-level race shoes made for fast rides (www.bicycling.com)
