Shane Cooper is the man behind DeFeet - who've been supplying socks to the pros for over thirty years.
Their latest innovation the Evojet sock, is revolutionising the peloton with a claimed 24 watt saving over bare legs - with Matteo Jorgenson and the US Olympic team wearing them to victory in the last twelve months.
He joins the Odd Tandem to share another passion with Bobby Julich and Jens Voigt - the cobbled classics. Shane spent thirty days in Belgium soaking up the unique atmosphere of the region in their award nominated film Flandrien.
The Odd Tandem is a produced by Mark Payne for Shocked Giraffe. The theme song was composed and written by Taylor Phinney.
