When you’re planning an epic bikepacking adventure, you don’t want to rely on just any old pair of off-road shoes to get you through it. You need shoes that will protect your feet from unexpected weather conditions, walk well, and survive the rigors of adventure. The Shimano Men’s SH-XM7 Bike Shoes have all of those boxes covered with a Gore-Tex liner, durable upper, and a grippy Vibram sole. With an outsole stiffness rating of three, which falls solidly on the comfort side of the comfort vs. competition spectrum, these shoes are built for functionality for long hours in the saddle and while setting up camp on foot, and they promise durability to last over the miles.
Shimano fashions the SH-XM7’s upper from nubuck leather with rubber reinforcement around the toe box for stability and protection. A waterproof and breathable Gore-Tex liner protects your feet from sudden rain squalls and other inclement weather to keep your toes toasty and dry. Laces span the top of the shoe for easy adjustment and a customized fit, and a hook-and-loop strap across the top of the foot holds the laces in place and provides an extra dose of support.
Underfoot, a Vibram outsole provides grippy traction over rocks, roots, and other obstacles, while a half-length shank plate provides excellent walkability. To cap things off, shock-absorbing EVA foam increases comfort on and off the bike.
You’re committed to cycling now and short days and bad weather won’t keep you from getting on your bike even if that means indoors on the trainer or rollers or a spin class session. Pearl Izumi’s SELECT Road V5 Studio Cycling Shoe for Men lets you keep your expensive cycling shoes for longer rides when the weather breaks and provides a set of dedicated shoes for the gym. The materials and construction itself are specifically built to endure the challenging environment, such as hot and humid conditions, of indoor cycling. It’s equipped to handle three-bolt road and two-bolt mountain cleats so it’ll work with virtually any cleat you’re currently using including those popular on spin bikes.
The synthetic collar and closed cell foam padding on the Select Studio V5’s help shed sweat, and the anti-microbial upper mesh helps resist odor-causing bacteria and fungus. Inside the shoe, a PE sockliner with Silvadur anti-microbial material adds durability and additional bacterial resistance. Added ventilation holes in the last board add more breathability during those long intervals. You won’t feel bad leaving these shoes in a locker or gear bag as you save your high-end kicks for better days.
Give yourself a serious competitive edge with the Giro Men’s Prolight Techlace Shoes. Tipping the scale at a mere 150 grams, the Prolight balances ultralight construction with top of the line pedaling performance from its progressive upper and outsole.
Adorned with three quick and convenient Techlace Pro straps, the Prolight offers a fast and secure closure system, while its Ultralight Techmesh upper with a Teijin TPU skeletal overlay ensures long-lasting durability, breathability, and overall comfort through the seasons. An Ultralight SuperNatural Fit Kit with adjustable arch support in the footbed provides you with just the right level of support and response, while X-Static anti-microbial fiber in the Ultralight footbed helps things stay fresh and fatigue-free. Then, the stiff TeXtreme Advanced Concepts outsole serves up lightning-fast responsiveness in an insanely lightweight package.
When your sense of adventure is larger than mountains ahead of you, your mountain bike shoe shouldn’t be what holds you back from chasing after it. The Pearl Izumi X-ALP Elevate Mountain Bike Shoes just may have a craving for off-the-beaten trail adventures to rival your own, thanks to rugged construction and a build that offers all-day comfort for days of pushing into the backcountry on a fully loaded rig, chasing down the sun. The X-ALP Elevate use 3-layer uppers that hug your foot in with seamless design to extend durability for all-day riding, with perforations in the arch and forefoot to let fresh air inside, and mesh panels that wick away sweat so you can stay cool. The top closure uses both a IP1 Boa and a hook and loop toe strap so you can dial in a semi-custom fit with 1-millimeter micro adjustments for all day comfort.
On the inside the shoe decks you out with a supportive footbed for soaking up rough trails, and a lightweight EVA midsole for cushioning your flippers when you’re off of the bike. Contrasting the soft and flexible midsole, the shank features a nylon and carbon composite construction that ensures stiff power transfer to the pedals to propel you forward, with just a touch of flex to maintain a natural walking feel when you roll into a moose head on and have to bolt off trail on foot. Vibram Megagrip lugs make sure your footing stays sure when you do have to bolt off trail, with directional tread to propel you forward as needed, and help you put on the brakes in the heel. The shoes are 2-bolt SPD compatible, with a unique cleat mount patch that features enough space to securely clip in, and tread surrounding the recessed cleat so you don’t have to sacrifice walking capabilities to ride clipless.
Hi I’m tony torrence I’m the cycling footwear product line manager here at lulu’s me dad i could talk to you a bit about our health category of cycling shoe this category really came about. Through our european office they saw a. Need to have a cycling shoe where a. Cyclist could wear it all day long they could pedal over a mountain pass and then keep it on and you know go into a. Market or go to a restaurant really a shoe when you have it on it feels like you’re wearing a running shoe or a Marquette a casual shoe but then when. You’re on the bike it transfers power. Really well across oak elite it’s really. A high-end shoe or cross-sell category. It’s made from mom i could love to ride it’s got a really good micro just buckle. With our pro level instep strap it’s got. Three adjustments on the medial side a really center of the eba strap it’s got. Our one-to-one nylon power band so. Really holds your heel down for great. Power transfer and then it’s got our. Brand-new cross help bottom unit which. Has dual density eva a foam in the forefoot, so we can put a firmer, or we do. Put a firmer foam between your. Forefoot and your pedal so you get great power transfer we put our one-to-one energy foam in the heel which is a high. Rebound rubberized foam great off the. Bike shock attenuation cushioning the. Shoe you can be worn it can be worn all day long you feel like you have a running shoe on or a casual shoe and on the bike super. High performance across helped seek for.

At just 175 grams, the Giro Empire SLX shoes are breathing some pretty rarefied air. Not many shoes on the market come within 100 grams of the Empire, but it’s not giving up anything in terms of performance, either. The uppers are a single piece of Evofiber microfiber, which is highly breathable, but is also perforated for additional airflow. The shoe closes using just the laces you no doubt noticed, but those laces are specially designed to remain tied, and there’s also a lace garage on the tongue to ensure they don’t get anywhere near your drivetrain.
Those uppers are attached to an ultra-stiff Easton EC90 SLX2 Carbon Sole. This sole is among the stiffest available, and due to high grade of carbon fiber used in its construction, is also one of the slimmest, producing a stack height of just 6.5mm. A low stack height means less power lost to thick cleat plates. And, to make the Empire SLX even lighter, Giro’s opted for another old-school classic —Ti hardware. Between the uppers and the sole sits Giro’s lauded SuperNatural FitKit, the long name for its user-tunable footbed. These insoles have swappable arch support so you can tune the fit of your shoes precisely to your feet.
This top-end shoe has old school looks. With modern technologies it’s super lightweight highly breathable with a microfiber one-piece upper there’s no. Stitching to restrict any movement and the carbon sole is super stiff so there’s no energy loss when you’re pedaling this is an awesome blend of top-spec with super slick aesthetics when you get the fit right it’s really nice. You.
Hey guys simon here from summit recycling today I’m going to review these zero empire shoes as the folks at. Flying fish bikes in south tampa Noelle got me set up on these shoes and. Honestly at first i wanted to try to set with straps because i wasn’t really excited about trying laces and i think. Some of you might be thinking the same thing it’s kind of old school right laces, but they didn’t have any in stock. So they got me these to try and stead and I’m so grateful that these are the ones i ended up trying because this. Is amazing blazers are the way to go i mean if laces were not the best option. You know then why aren’t the best. Runners in the world think about you say both all these guys why they use why aren’t they using something that’s not laces right it’s obviously laces are amazing i really have had no issues whatsoever with you know you think you need to. Adjust on a ride and all that once you set your laces and you get a feel for how to adjust them and then you just tuck them in it says tack the laces underneath there’s a strap here and you. Get to go and the most this is the most. Comfortable shoe I’ve ever ridden incredibly light very. Stuff I’m writing speed pay and i did. Have a speed pay specific soul before this on a north wave shoe and but. Because the sole was so thin and even. Though i had to put the adapter and i didn’t have to change my seat height because the soul is so spent on these your shoes but incredibly. Stuff what i like about these shoes is. That they do come with their own inner. Soles and they come with three different inserts depending on the height of your. Your arch you can change this up with. Velez you just basically change this up. And you can play around with that how high arch you want to have so you have three different height options for your inner sole plus you get another insole with no height whatsoever you. No i did wait about two months to do review on this because i know from experience you know if you do a review on something even for a week you have a bit of a honeymoon period well i wanted to make sure that i. Truly did believe in these shoes after. Riding in for two months and i can tell you that I’m so thrilled. I found shoes that feels so comfortable so stuff and so light you know when. Your pedaling you actually notice that. Advantage you notice that feeling so. Only i was saying potentially the only. Only drawback to these shoes is. Possibly if you were coming to a sprint finish and you wanted to ratchet up your shoes a little bit more you know that’s the only time that you’ve probably lost that that ability because of the. Laces besides that these are you know. Laces are definitely the way to go for me I’ve been testing both shoes for the. Last you know few years and i like. Laces even better so that’s my little. Review on the giro empire shoes I’m. Excited to continue using this brand because they really work for me so find. A shoe that works for you remember when you find the right shoes. You’ll you’ll know you’ll know that how. You feel you’ll know how you peddle you’ll just feel a lot better before. This i struggled with some other brands i was always trying to tweak them trying to play with them trying to adjust them that’s a sure sign that does want the shoes for you once you find the right shoe there’s not much adjusting needed you just feel good it feels right and you found one so hope you guys enjoyed. That review and check out my website make sure you download your free training plan and all the best with your cycling.
The Kaos shoes are built upon the Millenium 4 Outsole, which is a nylon matrix infused with carbon fiber. The mixed compound is resistant to heat and humidity, ensuring that your soles will outlast replacement heel pads and buckles, which are available separately.
The uppers are a breathable synthetic leather lined with a microfiber to keep your feet cool and dry. Unlike leather, the synthetic will not stretch and provides consistent support for your feet. To secure the shoes, Sidi placed its ratcheting buckle at the ankle sewn to a wide band to reduce pressure. At the forefoot are two Techo-3 buckles. These feature a twist and tighten mechanism that allows micro-adjustments. Both are easy to adjust in the saddle.
If the Freerider Contact Shoes look and feel like an old friend, that’s because Five Ten based its design on an updated version of the VXi chassis. The big change from VXi to Contact is the addition of toe protection in the latter the equivalent of ensconcing your little piggies in a brick house instead of just the synthetic leather of the VXi. With this additional armor, the Contact’s capabilities encompass a bit more of the DH spectrum while also improving the outcomes of mishandled landings.
The sole’s flat metatarsal section of Stealth Rubber carries over from the VXi to the Contact, giving you secure grip on flat pedals that still allows you to freely reposition your feet similar to road pedals with a high degree of float. The durable, synthetic uppers and mesh ventilation also return, making for shoes that rock the park, cruise the DH circuit, and clean lines across all manner of all-mountain riding.
Hi I’m brad and when I’m out riding i love riding at five ten today I’ve got the five ten contact here this is an. Updated version of the free rider vxi. This is stiff shoe it’s going to be great for all-mountain endure and free ride. The contact has the famous mi6 stealth. Rubber on the outsole the stickiest rover in the world it also sports a smooth outsole under the arch so that the pedal pins don’t get caught up in the lugs finally it’s got a updated toe. Box to prevent those painful rock strikes the abrasion resistant upper has. Been redesigned for more comfort and to be more breathable after a long day of riding you might want to clean these the insole pops right out so you can put it. Right in the washing machine or hit it with some febrile the 510 contact is. Like the all-around cowboy shoe it’s. Going to be your best shoot for all-mountain free ride dirt jumps and. Killing it in the park if you’ve had a. Chance to ride these shoes please post some comments on fit size comfort and style that’s it for the 510 contact happy riding.
Hey what’s up guys welcome back to another episode today’s episode i quickly want to discuss the importance of having the correct protection for your feet in my case i ran with the 510. Freebie pros so stay tuned it’s coming up so let’s quickly discuss why you. Would be wanting to ride with a mountain bike specific shoe well number one it’s. Got quite a bit of rigidity in the sole. I used to ride just in normal sneakers. But going from sneakers to this. Massively grippy like rubber compound. That’s on here i mean my life has totally changed this guy you stick it. Down in your pedal you really have to look at your foot off the pedal and put it back down on the pedal to actually readjust your foot because once this is done and the grub screws have dug into the base of this these guys aren’t going. Anywhere the one thing that I’ve noticed to three days after the famous crash. Yes yeah that crash right there I’ve. Noticed that if i was not wearing the. Shoes because of the rigidity of the sole my foot i don’t know exactly what happened but if this was my foot it kind. Of rolled something to that extent. So i think if it was not full for these. Shoes i would have most likely broken about two or three of my toes yeah. Luckily i didn’t break anything my foot is blue slightly swollen but. Right after the crowd so i could walk it off i think if i wasn’t wearing these free ride shoes the damage could have definitely been a hell of a lot worse cost a bit of money these shoes are expensive but if you. Think about how long they’re gonna last if you think about how much money in the long run these will save you in hospital bills broken bones that kind of thing the. Issues are definitely worth it i think. They come in today at about two and a half thousand ram but it’s a one sort of purchase and you can ride for several years with these shoes considering you. Now if you’re an adult and you’re not still young lad or lady out there these will. Definitely work yeah if you’re a parent watching this you have a kid out there on the trails riding well. Mom and dad i think if you can kind of. Like you gets a bus together get the youngsters some good solid protection because it will save you down the line. And some hospital bills yeah as always. Say if you treat the sport with a little. Bit of respect in the right kind of gear you can make it a very safe sport. So this is the 510 free ride pro chute i. Will leave a link down below in the description you can definitely go ahead and check these art if you would like some more information about those the shoe has definitely changed my life. Added grip added power delivery because. There’s no real give in the sol compared. To a sneaker these guys are a monsters. Out on the track this brings me to the end of my protection series for this week next week I’ll be back with a fortunate designing of that kitchen at. The back getting ready for easter weekend to hit the trails so that’s it. For me for this week guys so as always stay safe on the trails look after yourselves and I’ll see you guys next week peace out
Hello tubers i hope you are all okay a. Hairy back here with a review for a new. Piece of kit these are my 5 10 free rides i put in. Now approximately 5 to 550 kilometers. I’m not sure exactly on these now and i. Thought ok now i can justify review as. You can see they’re a bit grubby first. Of all actually the issues of relatively. Waterproof sort of abrasive resistance. Around the side here this is all sort of like a plasticy mesh it’s very. Robust around the front here it’s got a. Mice protected bit for the toes actually. This is really good if you sort of keep back your pedals or something like this really protects it, and they’re also a relatively waterproof i mean i. Went through a sort of muddy clay root on these a little while back and as well. Come back this morning from a little bit of mud and water, and they hold it they. Hold it out pretties well in comparison to what i was riding before with which were a pair of bands skate shoes which really. Aren’t ideal for the sort of writing that i do they’re also warm which is. Super especially if you put on an extra pair of socks or something like that two pairs of socks i was riding last weekend. In about minus 2 degrees it was very related a little breed that was sadly fairly cold so my feet was still warm. And they said that was great just a little bit of sizing and there we. Can see this in here probably not look. Ok well anyway these are 48.5 european. 13 uk and 14 is size and just as a. Little comparison for my night trainers. I also take the same size i know some shoes vary in size but these seem to go. One sort of the mike scale so if you have a pair of mics check the. Size in there and then this should compare relatively well to these. Here i did however buy a pair of lights. At five cent climbing shoes and the 48.5. Came up small very small so if you’re also into climbing just be aware of that. Okay that hurts my toe had a blister on the end of it after my session so yep. Another thing to consider before we get. A little bit more into the review is these souls are really thick, and they’re great, and they’re super sticky so i actually had to adjust my. Saddle to accounts of this because the ones i was writing before were obviously. A little bit thinner i guess and it’s. It’s noticeable when you get on your bike you can really tell that you know there’s an extra little bit of girth down here okay so the soles themselves. As you can see I’m riding on my bike at. The moment a nice pair of dmr v12 pedals. And there’s not too much i mean you know. They look almost as good as new hardly anywhere on there whatsoever the. Stealth rubber is great it really does stick to the pedals just be careful of your pedals aren’t in the right position and you put your feet down because they slip, or they will continue to stick okay. The laces are good i mean just standard. Laces really haven’t tried washing these. Off yet and maybe i should try and do that and like i said they are relatively waterproof so i guess all this mud on the outside will just scrape off so always good overall a great pair of. Shoes these cost me a hundred and ten euros that was with a 10% discount you. No I’m not so sure that’s good comparatively the danny Catskill. Version are usually about thirty to. Forty euros more expensive and in all honesty I’m not sure what the difference is however if you haven’t ridden five ten and you still you know wearing your. Sports trainers or your skate shoes or wherever it is you know to progress your. Riding that little bit further and just for the stability i mean these things are super tough as well you know really durable they hardly bend which is great and. Actually something that i didn’t i didn’t think up before you really you. Could really complete the feet on you can plant your foot and you know really. Sort of helps with all of this motion you know it’s very good also not too uncomfortable to walking so if. You get off your bikes go into a cask and get a doughnut or something like that excuse me fruit because we’re cyclists you need to. Stay healthy yeah they’re also not so. Uncomfortable so you could easily push your bike up of hill to lock it up. Somewhere take a little quick walk into town and you’ll be absolutely fine in this if you have any questions let me. Now and I’ll try and get back to you as soon as possible all right thanks very much.
Alright guys welcome back to wild outdoor living today we’re going to be taking a look at the 510 free-rider. Contact and the regular 510 free-rider. Now we were looking to buy some flat. Pedal shoes for our bikes you know it was a real challenge because the 510 free-rider contact cost one hundred and fifty dollars and the regular free rider just costs a hundred so i wanted to know. Why is there such a big difference between these two pedal shoes maybe. Besides the initial looks and some of the stuff you can see online and nobody was doing in comparison so now that i have both of shoes here we’re going to show you what the differences are so you can decide what is best for you the. Stuff we have the 510 free rider contact this is the women’s version i got this purse elise when she decided to go to. Flat pedals we decided to get her these shoes for a couple of reasons first. There are a little bit lower profiled so if the styles not real the big fat skater style like any other reason i. Wasn’t quite as worried with the new. Design being a little bit untested because solis is not right nearly as many miles as i do so mostly it was just get a good fit get a nice clean profile. And get a really good sticky sole so if. We look at some of the features on this shoe this is their newer design we’re. Seeing a lot more synthetic materials, so we have this kind of rubberized texture right here along the mid foot same thing. On the inside on the medial side lateral media we do have some really tough. Plastic or rubber nylon type of material. In the toe and around just around the. Just around really look the front and sides of the whole toe box it’s really rigid it’s a super protective toe. Cap and we have a similar thing going on in the heel but upside of this is it’s. Going to keep your toes really protected the downside is that if your toes don’t. Quite fit in there comfortably that can. Be really irritating because there is no stretch to the shoes being that so synthetic we do see the real trademark. Of the content versus the contact patch it has no dots. On the in that area this is the area of. The foot you would put on the pedal and so instead of having all the all these. Groupies to make it inconsistent feeling. You’re going to just make that flat it’s going to sink down to the pedal and really give you a good grip additionally. This is 5/10 stickiest stealth rubber so. The two biggest differences you’ve got that flat contact pass it gives the shoe the contact name and then you have the. Ultra sticky stealth rubber. That is the softest stickiest that 5/10. Makes there are some other things that. You might want to be aware of before you purchase the shoe first and foremost elephant in the room if you’ve been reading the reviews you know that when this you came out it was absolutely horrendous in terms of reliability there’s a there’s a transition here between the eba in the mid sole. And the outsole stealth rubber and. They’ve cut it down a little bit lower and says sewing it directly into the (upper) of the shoe they’ve glued it into the eba of the mid sole and that. Saves some weight that makes the shoe light and streamlined but the problem is. That when it flexes here it would. Separate so we haven’t had an issue with it haven’t seen any bad reviews in a cup in a few months about six months or so actually and so hopefully all the shoes. Are good now, and we’re not going to see. That reliability issue the other possible reliability issue is. Because the rubber is so soft it’s going. To break down quicker i mean just plain and simple even on fleece issues which she hasn’t actually worn that many times with it being winter last few months you. Now you can already see that it’s a little bit scuffed up a little bit worn it’s probably going to last a really long time though and be a great fit for. This shoe is definitely sitting as the higher performance option in a less reliable package move on to the standard. 510 pre writer i fretted and could not. Decide what i was going to get this shoe is quite a bit cheaper than. The free other contacts that i like that it was you know stickier and more. Streamlined all that that appealed to me but at the same time i needed she was durable i wear my shoes every day and i. Wear them in a lot of different places and i end up doing a lot of hiking biking and so it was important that the. Shoe be durable this shoe as you can see. It’s a little bit simpler this is their older design this is 510 classic so it’s. Not quite as soft as the mi6 version. That you have in the contact however it’s still super sticky this is the rubber that a 510 shoes famous on flat. Pedals and so you’re not going to be. Lacking in grip it’s a little bit of. A simpler design instead of having that transition with the eba and the outsole. We just have the outsole completely sewn. In to the upper which is more of a leather and cotton construction we. Do have a toe cap but it’s not nearly as rigid as what you get on the contact the. Heel cup is a little bit rigid as well but also again not as robust as. What’s on the contact i have found this. To be a very comfortable shoe it is quite it’s you know stiffness wise not. As stiff as the contact either in contact really is probably going to be. Your higher performer but this is going to be a little bit easier to walk in for the most part that said this is way. Stickier than any sneaker you probably have so this is going to give you great. Power transfer it’s going to give good pedal feel and it’s just going to be a lot more enjoyable to ride than your. Regular sneaker so it’s a great option i. Actually thought it quite entertaining. When i first rode these shoes i realized i could still pick my foot up with the pedal at stop signs and stuff like i. Could do with my clip less pedals i mean you can easily take your pedal up. To 90 degrees if not more just by putting a slight amount of pressure on the forward on that pedal when it comes. Right up no problem so i don’t have to take my foot off and scoop up the pedal with my toe nearly as often ah that’s the main differences between those two shoes they’re both excellent shoes if you’re looking for a more durable long-term option that’s maybe a. Better value definitely go with the standard free-rider if you’re looking for the ultimate and performance and grip and protection, and they’re not. Worried about swapping your shoes out as often go with a free rider contact that. Said you know you can probably order the. Regular free rider with a little bit less risk the free rider contact you. Now if you’re ordering online there’s a good chance you’re gonna have to send it back if it’s too short because it’s not going to be comfortable if it’s at all too short and so you know if you have a chance to try it on i really recommend. That you guys have any questions please leave them in the comments down below i. May be trying to keep up with this one video week thing and maybe bump it up to. Two if we have time, so we’ll catch you later.
All right so i did a review on single. Tracks calm about these free riders and. Put more particularly it was about the free rider contact or lack thereof as. You can see, but we’ll get to that so real quickly this was my first pair. Free riders that my wife picked out the. Color these are four and a half years. Old now i think and i still wear these. At times these are a great condition durability i mean i beat these things up. They’ve been too out in the southeast. Asia Hawaii rocky mountains ozarks all. That out west moab utah i mean these. Things have been beat to snot in your. Washing machine, and they’re good both pairs were good i mean the insides award a little bit and there you can see but. Hey there’s still a great shoe they held up so then my wife gets me for my. Birthday the brand-new at the time free. Rider contact and not much of it is in. Contact well mainly solvent this shoe. Looked terrific the photos i put on single tracks calm they’re a terrific. Looking shoe they kept your feet dry. They’re lightweight, and they seem durable but, but they’re really they’re not i mean they started cracking right here on the ball of your foot pivots at. Your toes and then that is allowed moisture and water all kinds of stuff to get in their sander the reinforced toe. If these aren’t snug and tight it. Doesn’t matter there’s time when just bumps your toe that’s pretty irritable. The grip the performance of the shoe initially was it was fantastic and. People like hey this is great and the. Videos that were online okay they’re great but the durability it’s not there. It’s not there at all this came off in a manner i think in the first month or two this was already starting to separate right here on the side so just after where the stitching is here to kind of keep it on the shoe and where the ball of your foot is pivoting a lot of picking up setting it down if you do a. Lot of actual free riding and you like to have fun this is this going to get tore up and the other ones just like it — it started kind of coming apart there. Inside and then it’s just i don’t know. It was disappointing the inside stayed. Good they’re comfortable but I’ll never. Buy this type again and then again here’s another free rider went back to. This original style free rider and this. Is I’ve had these four since december. Yeah since december and these have been getting beat up as well, but they’re solid it’s like you can’t go wrong only. Think with these is they got ripped by. My straight lines i think one of the pins caught on the side you know trying. 360 i don’t know what i did but anyway. So i would stay away from the contact. The contact was not it was not a durable. Shoe at all it didn’t even last me a. Year i think six months i gave it up i went back to these started using these and then i would have these i keep these.

If the SH-XC9 is Shimano’s shoe equivalent to its superlative XTR drivetrain, then the SH-XC7 is analog to XT, borrowing a heap of inspiration from its top-tier sibling to bring industry leading function to those of us on a bit more of a budget. Given that the XC7 is a race-ready shoe, the carbon-reinforced midsole is the most important of these layers as it places the XC7 near the top of Shimano’s stiffness hierarchy. It clocks in at nine out of 12 on Shimano’s stiffness scale, and the only Shimano XC shoe that’s stiffer is the XC9 S-Phyre at 11 out of 12. This places the XC7 firmly into race-ready territory, with highly efficient power transfer and just a hint of forgiveness for increased utility when running over barriers or climbing steep embankments.
Though it’s not as stiff as the S-Phyre, the XC7 does feature a more robust complement of lugs, so it’s better suited for navigating sloppy run-ups or trails on foot. The rubberized outsole also includes toe spike mounts for days when not even the lugs are enough, and the compound comes from the experts at Michelin. Michelin uses two different durometers throughout the soles, targeting different qualities of grip and durable depending on how the lugs will contact the ground—just like with the brand’s tires.
Shimano builds the last with its proprietary Dynalast construction, a design that increases pedal efficiency by a claimed .56% on each stroke. While that doesn’t seem like much at first, any cyclist who’s ridden for longer than two hours understands the importance of marginal gains like this. They can be the difference between finishing at the front or struggling to hang on. Dynalast involves lowering the toe-spring and heel section in relation to the arch and metatarsal areas to create an optimal pedaling angle on either side of the up-swing to shorten inefficient dead spots.
The upper is secured with a BOA IP1 dial and a single hook-and-loop strap over the forefoot, letting you quickly dial fit across the midfoot while leaving ample room for metatarsal expansion while mashing out of corners or jockeying for position during a bunch start. It envelopes your foot rather than simply strapping it down, creating more uniform support and further reducing pressure points.
We love a good pair of super nerdy, minimalist road shoes, but are willing to concede that there are more appropriate choices when things lean towards the dusty and adventury. That said, we aren’t willing to sacrifice on style or functionality, which puts the Giro Men’s Rumble VR Cycling Shoes right at the top of our adventure cycling footwear wish list. Pairing classic lace-up style that’s perfectly at home at your favorite local breakfast café with a grippy sole and two-bolt cleat compatibility, the Rumble VRs are up for everything from last-minute gravel excursions to days long epics to leisurely mid-week rides through the city.
Giro fashions the Rumble VR’s uppers from a mix of synthetic fabrics and mesh, blended to provide a balance of protection and breathability that’ll have your feet turning in comfort through dusty side roads, rocky access points, and cloud-clearing sunbursts. The lace-up closure system isn’t just there for style, but also offers precise adjustability for an impeccably customized fit that minimizes pressure points.
Underfoot, a molded shank gives the sole needed stiffness to efficiently transfer power into speed while leaving enough flex for comfortable walkability during hike-a-bike and coffee shop situations. To cap things off, a Vibram Rubber Outsole provides sure-footed grip while an EVA midsole offers comfortable support.
The new Pearl Izumi Men’s X-Project P.R.O. Cycling Shoes perch atop the X-Project line with their efficient carbon composite sole and a comfortable upper that’s more than up to your next XC or cyclocross challenge. The stiff sole is complemented by an outsole featuring molded rubber tips on hollow TPU lugs that lend enough traction to dig through mud, rock, sand, and any other challenging conditions you may encounter en route to the finishing tape. The EVA foam heel takes a cue from cushioned running industry technology, helping to reduce the impact on your joints if you end up having to hike or run repeatedly throughout a long ride or race.
Pearl Izumi shapes the upper from its 3-layer Seamless Composite synthetic with a flexible fit that conforms to a variety of foot shapes, making hot spots and pressure points unlikely. It also allows for ample air transfer, helping to pull moisture from your feet and socks. The dual BOA IP1 dials give you extensive adjustability pre-ride or from the saddle, allowing you to achieve a secure fit that helps prevent numb feet in the middle of a trail.
Taking on a sleeker, more streamlined profile than its LS-100 predecessor, the Louis Garneau Men’s Carbon LS-100 II Cycling Shoes borrow aesthetic hits from some of the more popular footwear in the peloton and brings it to your closet at a much more wallet-friendly price point. Their combination of Boa and hook-and-loop closures conspire to make quick work of customizing the fit so you can get out the door and off to racking up training miles in a snap.
Once clipped in, the carbon composite sole and low stack height ensure you’ll be rolling smooth and rocketing off the front with effortlessly efficient power transfer. Across the top, the perforated synthetic leather upper provides ample ventilation and a close-fitting profile that minimizes pressure points so you can add on extra miles without worrying about hot spots or general foot discomfort.

Your riding takes you all over the mountain, so why wear a shoe that limits you to one discipline? In the Giro Cylinder Mountain Bike Shoe you’ll find versatile comfort that offers lightweight breathability for banging out miles of XC singletrack, and stiff, rugged support that has no problem blasting through rock gardens and weaving through techy tree lines. New to Giro’s lineup, the Cylinder takes queues from the Privateer, utilizing a co-molded nylon and rubber outsole for superior grip that doesn’t weigh you down, and stiff responsiveness that doesn’t bend under pressure.
Unlike the Privateer, the Cylinder is created with a lighter weight upper construction. It features a combination of synthetic leather and mesh, allowing for unsurpassed breathability for moisture transfer and ventilation on warm days. The toe and heel feature reinforcement to protect you from trail debris when the singletrack gets a little wild. The upper secures your foot into place with an L6 Boa system, offering 1-millimeter adjustment increments when tightening, so you can perfectly dial in your fit, and a macro-release function for easy removal. On the inside, a die-cut insole adds just the right amount of cushion to your arch and heel, keeping you comfortable during long miles in the saddle.
The co-molded nylon and rubber outsole accommodates steel toe spikes for solid grip on foot in variable conditions, if the beefy lugs aren’t enough to keep you planted on the trail. While admittedly less stiff than a carbon fiber outsole, the nylon provides significant rigidity for committing power, but allows just a touch of flex where you want it when you have to hike a bike. The outsole is graced with additional guard to shield your arch from chunky rocks and fallen branches in the mid foot area, so you can stay confident when the singletrack starts to get a little hairy, and the trail ahead offers little forgiveness.

If you’re just dipping your toes into the clipless pedal waters, look no further than the Pearl Izumi Men’s X-Road Fuel V5 Mountain Shoe for confidence-inspiring stability and plentiful traction underfoot. Designed to emulate your favorite pair of hiking shoes, the X-Road Fuel V5 Mountain Shoe does away with an overly stiff, race-oriented design in favor of sure-footed grip and flexibility underfoot, which are two key areas for those just learning to engage into and release from their newly acquired clipless pedals. On a side note, these shoes can be used with traditional flats, should you desire to ride unattached to your pedals on the trail or around town.
Looking underneath this sneaker-inspired trail shoe, you’ll find an X-Road nylon plate with a two-hole mounting pattern that’s compatible with SPD-style cleats used by mountain bikers and urban commuters for their solid pedaling platform and intuitive operation. Instead of taking up the entire forefoot, this nylon plate is only located where the cleat attaches, allowing the rest of the sole to use grippy rubber lugs, just like a normal pair of sneakers. This way, you can confidently walk off your bike or use these shoes with flat pedals when you’re just cruising around town.
The shoulder seasons always present a sense of urgency in our riding. Fall brings shorter days as we try to squeeze in some quality rides before winter sets in. In the early spring, cabin fever has us itching to get off the trainer and hit the roads. We have different kits that we wear for each season, why would our shoes be any different? If you are looking to maximize your riding experience in these type conditions where lighting may be low or weather might be unpredictable, the Men’s Cosmic Elite Vision CM Shoe from Mavic will surely keep your feet comfortable and dry and provide additional visibility to drivers.
The Clima Mavic construction on the front half of the shoe keeps your feet dry and insulated and prevents water absorption during the course of the ride. The upper material is super easy to clean so you can wipe the mud and grit off from your heroic day in the saddle and have them looking like new again. Mavic yellow highlights and 360-degree reflective black and silver synthetic finish don’t sacrifice breathability. These shoes are highly visible in conditions typically seen in fall and spring that have you out riding before the sun rises and after it sets.
Mavic’s DNA of creating high-quality race shoes that pros count on extends to these shoes. The footbed consists of a high-quality OrthoLite insole designed to prolong comfort for the long days and offer a good fit which increases performance. The Mavic Ergo Dial and hook-and-loop straps handle closure duties and it’s easy and precise retention system makes tightening down the shoes right before an extended climb or sprints a cinch. Harnessing all of your pedaling power is the Energy Carbon Comp Outsole which is super light, extremely stiff, and its thin outsole with carbon reinforcement and composite glass fiber and polyamide inserts ensure a low stack height to the pedals.
Built for high performance at a high value, the SH-ME4 Mountain Bike Shoe packs technical features and durability into a shoe that’s ready to dominate the trail. Whether it’s long miles in the backcountry, quick laps on your local trails, or dabbling in enduro racing, the ME4 is tough enough for any off-road undertakings while remaining friendly on the wallet.
The shoe is constructed from a high-density synthetic leather upper that is comfortable against your foot and withstands repeated scrapes from rocks and other trail obstacles. The upper is also perforated to ensure your foot doesn’t get too warm when you’re spinning up a tough climb. The closure uses a Boa dial for quick and precise micro-adjustments, paired with offset hook-and-loop straps that relieve tension at the highest part of the foot, avoiding pressure points and numbness. Frankly, we’re impressed to see a Boa closure at this price point.
Moving to the bottom of the shoe, a glass fiber reinforced midsole rates at a five on Shimano’s stiffness scale. It gives you efficient power transfer to the pedals, but also allows some torsional flex between the heel and toe box for comfort when you’re throwing your bike into corners and navigating tricky descents. The lightweight rubber outsole offers traction on all surfaces, and features a wide cleat adjustment range of +10mm fore and -13mm aft so you can dial in the perfect position for your 2-bolt cleats.
