Blivet
TOP QUALITY COLD WEATHER CYCLING GEAR
A relatively newer brand, Blivet was founded in Quebec City in 2018. Bow Cycle & Sports has brought them aboard to enhance our fat bike and snow shoe line-ups. Blivet features boots, gloves, helmets and other items to make the outdoors easier to access.
LISZT AIR "TOEBOX"
Winter, cold, frostbite! Moving our toes - one of the simplest movements we instinctively make during winter in our boots. We are tapping them in order to create friction and keep them warm. In order to maximize comfort, Blivet created the LISZT AIR "TOEBOX" - all Blivet shoes have a 4-EEEE volume toe box, the largest volume you can find in the industry.
Frank Liszt, virtuoso pianist. All sources agree that Liszt was one of the greatest pianists of his time and one of the fastest in history. From a purely technical point of view, Liszt had unusually large hands. We pay tribute to him by using his name to refer to the extra volume toe box, in our boots, allowing you to strum your toes to avoid getting cold.
