We live for the miles we spend on the bike, but sometimes the weather outside just doesn’t permit us to hit the road. When trainer season rolls around, we find that we always drench our favorite gear in sweat, and while we can toss jerseys and shorts into the wash, shoes are not quite that easy. That’s why Louis Garneau offers us the perfect, extra-breathable option for hitting spin classes or spending miles on the trainer inside with their Actifly Cycling shoes for women. With more vents than you thought you could need, these keep sweat pulling away so that you can keep feeling fresh, even if you’re in a dingy basement staring at a computer while grueling through your training routine.
Since the emphasis of the Actifly is breathability, Louis Garneau opted for an almost entirely mesh upper, with some synthetic leather holding the shape together and adding support. The internal lining is also mesh, with a honeycomb construction designed to, you guessed it, breathe. Collectively with both a mesh upper and lining the shoes continually wick away sweat and dry to keep you feeling fresh, but if that wasn’t enough, they are also treated with anti-odor technology to help you feel clean from start to finish. A nylon-injected fiberglass outsole provides you with the stiff support you want when you’re putting down the power, but does offer a bit more torsional flex than a carbon fiber sole does. The outsoles also feature a breathability boost, with ventilation throughout to keep your feet cool and dry, avoiding the dreaded hot-foot.
Not all of us are blessed with the same pedal setup indoors and outdoors, and if we’re heading to a new spin class who knows what they be running on their bikes, which is why Louis Garneau designs the Actifly to be compatible out of the box with nearly any clipless pedal you’ll find on the market. The shoes come along with steel inserts that allow you to run either 2-bolt mountain cleats, or 3-bolt road cleats, and with just a few turns of a hex-key you can swap from your favorite SPD’s to Look Keos in minutes.
Minimalist, but not lacking, the Pearl Izumi Women’s Road V5 Cycling Shoes make for the perfect partner on all-day weekend cruises, and after work group rides alike. That’s because they pack a good punch in their simple profile, with three hook-and-loop straps to enclose your foot with a customized fit, and synthetic uppers that support you through the longest miles. The sole might flex a touch more than the Road Race model, but they still push forward with a good degree of stiffness thanks to a composite matrix reinforced with nylon, landing it right in the middle of Pearl’s stiffness scale, so you have a little forgiveness when you head for your first century, when comfort is a bit more important than pedaling efficiency. The sole is finished with traction at the heel and toe to help you keep upright when those long days in the saddle are punctuated by refueling stops at convenience stores with slippery linoleum floors.
An ill-fitting bike is a bad thing. When your ride mileage routinely measures in the triple digits, however, an ill-fitting shoe may be worse. Too tight and circulation is cut off; too loose and slippage causes painful blisters. Skiers and snowboarders have known for years: for a perfect fit almost nothing beats the Boa system. The Fizik R5 Donna Boa Women’s Shoe takes advantage of the incredible precision of the Boa system while maintaining extraordinary ventilation, tough durability, and impressive light weight.
The R5’s closure system starts with a conventional hook-and-loop strap close to the toe for near-infinite forefoot width control. Moving up the front of the foot, the Boa Cable dial-in closure system snakes its way through four separate anchor points for complete control all the way up to the tongue. For extreme control over volume, or simply to efficiently clean the inside of the shoe, Fizik designed the tongue pad to be fully-removable.
To further control slippage, Fizik has shaped the heel cup at the aft position of the shoe. This feature keeps the foot in the perfect position on hard up-strokes and while climbing out of the saddle. As a result, you’re powering the pedals comfortably and efficiently. This has been further heightened by a variable stiffness sole construction. Underfoot, the R5 makes use of a carbon-reinforced nylon outsole. And while this keeps costs down, it doesn’t inhibit either comfort or power transfer. In fact, the R5 retains a low stack height and a high level of rigidity. Fizik has also engineered-in trace flexibility, so the outsole drives power directly to the pedals while allowing enough movement to guarantee comfort after 80 kilometers.And on the topic of comfort, Fizik went above and beyond to make the R5 extremely breathable. The R5 features Fizik’s Microtex for the support structure of the uppers and nylon mesh for the ventilation windows. Together, these materials keep your feet breathing and comfortable on long summer days in the saddle. And for the insole, Fizik included its own Superlight Insole. And while its not custom moldable like with the R1, it does incorporate a thoughtful design that assures comfort by absorbing road vibration and supporting your arch.
The dirt-loving designers over at Five Ten decided their original Kestrel shoe was so much fun that they couldn’t stop at just one. As a result, you now have plenty of options to choose from when you’re upgrading your biking shoes for the season. Kestrel made a few changes and tweaks along the way that led to the creation of the Kestrel Lace-Up Women’s Shoe.
Designed for hard-charging all-mountain/enduro gals, the Kestrel Lace-Up aims to provide a more supportive, contoured fit around your foot than its older sibling with its lace-up closure, hook-and-loop strap, and non-slip heel cup. Kestrel also chose a nylon-reinforced EVA midsole to achieve more flex along the bottom of the shoe, and it designed the Stealth C4 rubber outsole with a wide cleat interface to make it easy to snap in and out of the pedals quickly on technical terrain. The Kestrel Lace-Up’s uppers are PU-coated synthetic, so they won’t crack or rip at the first spill you take on a loose, scree-filled section of trail.
It’s been all too long that we ladies have been put on the backburner by brands in the biking world. Fortunately, it does seem that slowly (but surely) slack is being picked up, and we are being offered gear that’s built for those of us reaching for podiums, pushing ourselves to the limit and charging into terrain that the world of shrink-it-and-pink-it doesn’t dare to dream of. The Giro Sica Techlace, while offering a pink option, isn’t one to fall into soft and frilly category, and certainly doesn’t treat us like delicate little flowers. These shoes are made to be tough, with stiff carbon soles that commit maximum power to your cranks, and rugged vibram lugs for charging up the mountain with a bike over-shoulder.
The Sica Techlace Shoe is built just as burly as its male counterpart, the Giro Code, featuring the same Evofiber Microfiber uppers that wrap your foot in snugly, and wick away perspiration through perforations throughout the entire shoe. The toe and heel are reinforced with rubber for protection against chunky rock gardens and trail debris, with a stretch paneling through the arch to shield you from unwieldy cranks.
The enclosure system includes an L6 Boa dial, which offers micro-adjustments in 1mm increments, and two Techlace straps that provide an enhanced, supple feel across the forefoot. Inside, the shoe features Giro’s SuperNatural FitKit with adjustable arch support, and Aegis odor-fighting fiber. This insole molds to your foot with a series of inserts for enhancing comfort whether you’re flat-footed or have arches steeper than the mountains around you.
The soles of the Sica Techlace feature Easton’s EC70 carbon fiber for ultimate stiffness and power, eliminating flex that can cost you watts when you’re fighting for a virtual QOM or an actual podium on race day. This ultra-stiff sole is backed up with Vibram rubber, known for its tacky grip and durability, with aggressive, directional lugs that keep your footing sure if an off-bike section is a must. The sole has a mid-foot scuff guard for on-foot protection, and a recessed 2-bolt cleat mount for clipping into your favorite mountain pedals.
You don’t like to limit yourself. One day, you’re 10 miles deep on some singletrack enjoying the smell of loamy dirt and pine, the next you’re hammering out road miles in your local Critical Mass, and next weekend you’ll be heading to the Swell for a gravel-grinding bikepacking adventure. We admit, you may want to switch up your steed between those rides, but with Pearl Izumi’s All-Road V4 Cycling Shoes, one thing you won’t have to switch up is your kicks. These versatile shoes are designed to tackle it all, from spin class to mountain biking, with bonded seamless uppers that offer all day comfort, anatomic strap closure for dialing in fit without creating pressure points, and breathable lining that helps prevent dreaded hot foot. To support you from beneath, Pearl employs a stiff nylon composite power plate that adds rigidity and durability to the shoes, so you don’t lose the power that you put into your pedals. The soles are finished off with lugged rubber that offer excellent traction for off-bike adventures across mountain springs, or off the beaten path to take in the view.
Hit the trails for a day of rolling singletrack or push it even further to full-blown backcountry adventure in the Giro Riela RII Shoes for women. Built with tough uppers, rugged outsoles, and footbeds that keep you comfortable from first to last mile, the Riela RII’s are hungry for the trail, and with Giro’s sleek styling, you don’t have to stress hitting the brewery for a post ride pale ale with the ladies.
The Riela RII uses the same over all construction as her predecessor, the Riela R, with three hook-and-loop straps securing your foot in, and microfiber uppers, but those of us who get a wicked case of hot-foot on most rides get a big win with the addition of large mesh panels along the toe box and lateral portions of the shoes. The microfiber still uses perforations, just as it used to, to help with venting, but the added mesh aids in moisture transfer, helping your feet stay cool and comfortable all day long. A comfortable EVA footbed gives you the support you need inside of the shoe to stay comfortable, and underneath, a nylon injected outsole stiffens things up, so you don’t waste your energy on a shoe flexing under your pedal stroke, and instead transfer that power directly to the bike.
The outsole is also topped off with hearty portions of rubber lugs that add traction to the shoe, so when you have to make your way through river beds or up steep, rocky faces, you’ll have the grip you need to do it safely. To cap it off, there is a large recessed cleat pad underneath your foot, so you have plenty of room to lock in any 2-bolt mountain cleat, so you can clip into your favorite pedals and ride off into the sunset.
Feeling your shoe flex over your pedal when you’re hammering out to the front of the pack on race day is less than ideal, but so is spending a fortune when you’re a self-sponsored rider. Instead of diving in to budget shoes just to save a few bucks, find the perfect happy medium with the Giro Espada Boa Shoe for Women, designed with stiff carbon soles, and a price that isn’t too hard to swallow. These shoes are designed for the avid cyclist and new cyclist alike, with a comfortable fit and snug uppers that can be cinched down right where you want them, and replaceable walking pads, so they can last for years.
Beginning construction, the Espada shoes start out with microfiber and mesh uppers that hold your foot in like a warm hug, but with ample venting, so that warm hug doesn’t turn into hot-foot. The mesh is perfect for transferring moisture if your foot gets sweating, and perforations in the microfiber help heat escape from your feet constantly. The uppers are constructed with both a L6 boa, for micro adjustments, and a hook and loop strap in the forefoot for tightening things down with serious support, ensuring minimal foot slip when you’re putting down maximum power.
Inside of the shoe you’ll find a supple EVA insole, with molded arch and heel support that keep your foot in a comfortable position when you’re laying down the power. To make sure you don’t experience flex and twists when you’re putting out maximum watts, the sole is constructed out of Easton’s stiff and supportive EC70 carbon fiber composite, allowing for direct power transfer into your pedals with every stroke. The sole also features a replaceable walking pad, making them ideal for long term use, as they won’t go out of commission after a year of hard wear and tear. The shoes are equipped with steel hardware for running three-bolt road cleats, for compatibility with most road cycling pedals.
You may spend the majority of your ride time on singletrack, but unlike a lot of your fellow dirt hounds, you’re riding for time on both the up and the down. Whether the speed and technique required on the ‘cross circuit keeps you training every night after work, or you prefer the speed of XC, trust the Giro Women’s Empire W VR90 Shoe to deliver power to the pedals times and time again. The Empire’s elegant silhouette has been beyond reproach, in our minds, since Giro first introduced it, and the VR90 continues the legacy of clean lines and impeccable fit, adapted to the rigors of trail life.
Giro crafts each VR90 with an entirely one-piece Teijin microfiber upper, eliminating stitching, seaming, and overlays to leave you with lightweight support around the rolling contours of your feet. More breathable and weather-resistant than leather, synthetic Teijin microfiber molds around your feet much like its natural cousin. Use the lace-up design to make infinite adjustments in width and tightness along the length of your toes and instep to achieve a secure fit without the burden of hot spots distracting you from flyovers and technical rock gardens.
When you’re throwing all of your energy into the pedals to keep speed heading into a grueling climb, count on the Easton EC90 carbon fiber outsole to consistently deliver your watts to the pedals each time you turn them. The soles accommodate spikes for added traction on slick, muddy race days, and Giro subtly adds Vibram rubber lugs to the bottoms to make sure you can run your bike through sand pits as confidently as you ride it. Underneath your arch, Giro’s Super Natural Fit kit gives you the option to swap out arch support until you find what’s right for you, ensuring your foot’s mechanics don’t hinder your ride from inside your shoe.
If you’re looking for race-worthy energy in a shoe to replace your worn entry-level kicks, but are sponsoring yourself on the bike for the foreseeable future, upgrade to the Louis Garneau Carbon LS-100 II. With a palatable price point and a construction that represents a significant step up from the starter shoes you’ve been using, the Carbon LS-100 won’t drain your bank account in exchange for its responsive nature and contoured fit.
Less expensive starter shoes tend to offer fewer options for customization, providing riders with a generous, but not necessarily precise, fit. All of that changes with an upgrade to a shoe like the Carbon LS-100. Its upper mid-range distinction earns you a Boa dial and hook-and-loop strap across the supple synthetic leather uppers. This combination allows you to adjust for different needs across your instep and toes, ensuring both feel secure, but without the dreaded pins-and-needles sensation that imprecise buckles and straps often lead to. As you turn the pedals heading into a notoriously harsh local climb, the Carbon LS-100 will jump eagerly to the task of transferring precious watts into the pedals, matching your intensity with a rigid carbon composite platform.

It’s hard to beat the comfort of home, and the Louis Garneau Ruby II Shoes for women just may be the ruby slippers that take you there. They combine just enough tech to keep you up to date and in charge on the road, but without going overboard with bells and whistles that the pro’s demand. Crafted from seamless PU leather and mesh, the uppers hug your feet in securely, while an IP1-S Boa allows you to cinch things down and make two-way micro-adjustments for the perfect fit. A hook-and-loop strap secures your forefoot without pressing down on your instep, allowing natural toe splay that not only boosts your comfort, but power, too. The new Ruby II may share a lot of similarities with its predecessor, the Ruby, but it features Louis Garneau’s new X-Comfort Zone technology. This innovative tech allows the shoe to stretch to accommodate those with wider feet, thanks to the ventilated elastomer-spandex insert. This makes for a non-constrictive fit that keeps you going for the long rides ahead.

Launching full speed ahead can be tricky when your shoes flex under every pedal stroke, and podiums won’t earn themselves without the best performance. The Scott Women’s MTB RC Lady Shoe are ready to surge forward at lightning speed, accelerating as you push up switchbacks and holding you tight to steep banked turns with stiff carbon soles that won’t waiver under the heat of competition. As you’d expect from a shoe of racing pedigree, it’s the stiffest, most powerful offering in Scott’s line. The blended HMX Carbon sole maximizes pedaling efficiency when speed is of utmost concern, with just enough flex to make it comfortable enough for trail use.
The asymmetric upper conforms to your foot like a glove, with breathable perforations facilitating active cooling. Boa IP1 dials provide a micro-adjustable fit over the upper and lower zones, also promoting easy removal by quickly pulling up on each dial. Scott’s ErgoLogic footbed maximizes comfort with its customizable design. It features adjustable arches for greater support without the nagging pain of a traditional, one-size-fits-all footbed.
Whether you’re ripping laps at the bike park or embarking on an all-day backcountry adventure, the Ride Concepts Wildcat Shoe is ready to take on any trail with its sticky rubber sole and tough-as-nails construction. And while they share the same features and overall design as the Ride Concepts’ Livewire Shoe, they offer improved stability and better ankle protection thanks to the taller cuff. Durable synthetic uppers with anti-abrasion mesh hold up against rocks and overgrown trails, while the tacky DST 6.0 rubber sole locks your feet firmly to the pedals for unwavering composure in rock gardens and steep terrain.
As far as protection goes, The Wildcat Shoes have anti-abrasion toe guards, as well as a fully gusseted tongue that prevents the intake of dirt and debris. These are nice features, but we’re most excited about the D3O High Impact Zone Insole Technology. D3O is highly shock-absorbent padding that’s commonly used for knee pads and elbow guards. By incorporating D3O into the insole, the Wildcat significantly reduces the impact force you feel from harsh landings and long days on rugged singletrack.
Louis Garneau’s Mica II Cycling Shoe goes a long way to dispel the notion that you have to spend a fortune on riding shoes in order to keep your feet happy. As a good option for everything from big cross country rides to everyday trail riding, the Mica II keeps your feet comfortable on long rides while helping you put power to the pedals efficiently. And while they may be on the more budget-friendly side of the spectrum, these shoes don’t skip out on features or quality, as they come with Garneau’s award-winning X-Comfort Zone technology trickled down from top-tier models.
When cycling, feet tend to swell due to the increase in blood flow to the muscles. This can lead to numbness and hot spots that could potentially cut your ride short. Garneau addresses this issue with their X-Comfort Zone technology, an integrated stretch panel on the outside of the toe box that allows the foot to swell up to 5mm while riding, thus eliminating hot spots and discomfort. It also allows the shoes to comfortably fit riders with average and above average forefoot widths, taking some of the guesswork out of shoe selection.
Clip in and be a part of your bike and enjoy the world of more efficient pedaling with Shimano’s SH-RP2 Cycling Shoe. Shimano cycling shoes are an in-house favorite as it consistently brings comfort and reliability to your feet and the SH-RP2 is no exception. Compatible with three-bolt road cleats, these shoes will pair with almost any road pedal and the women’s specific last provides a dialed-in fit with more comfort as you push your limits.
The upper consists of a high-density synthetic leather for durability and it has perforations to help in the breathability department. Its closure system consists of 3 hook-and-loop straps for exceptional stability and easy on the fly adjustability while the uppermost strap is offset to minimize pressure across the top of the foot. Down below, its lightweight, glass fiber reinforced nylon sole gets the power to the pedals while letting the shoes hit a performance to price point value that very few shoes approach.
Serving up the comfort you’d expect from Giro, the Women’s Savix Shoe delivers a quick-adjusting Boa dial and set-and-forget front strap to get you in your shoe and on the road quickly. The Boa L6 dial adjusts in 1mm increments to offer a precise fit, while the macro-release strap lets you escape the shoe easily at the end of your ride. An injected nylon outsole provides you with versatile options to mount either mountain biker or road cleats, while the die-cut insole locks in a comfortable fit.
Hi everyone its toby from levite. Chickaletta and today i want to talk to you about jiro cycling shoes now a bit. Of a backstory first eric horton used to have a specialized bg. Cycling shoe program and he thought that. While their shoes were really good for many reasons their design principles. Were a little bit too rigid for his liking, so he wound up in zeros hands and. They told him he can take whatever materials and whatever time necessary to make the shoe best to his liking so. These shoes their biggest selling points. Can be broken into three categories the first being engineering the second being the last and the third being support the. Big story with engineering of these shoes was that jiro teamed up with. Eastern harbin sports to design a carbon else’ll specifically for this project. Now easton has a well-established and. Well-respected reputation for their design as well as manufacturer of carbon. And what they gave this project was a. Carbon outsole with the highest stiffness to weight ratio on the market one thing that strikes me about the. Soles is that the heel step as well as. The toe step are actually not replaceable so time will tell seeing how well they go about it with respect to. The upper it’s made of tasia 100. Microfiber which you find in high-end nike whoo soccer shoes no what do we have to. Learn from soccer shoes well soccer. Players tend to kick run jump slide pivot go through mud basically there are. A lot harder on their gear than cyclists are so what we have here is a upper. That’s actually overkill for a cyclist it’s light weights very simple but. Strong and breathable the last point. With engineering is that if you look at the way the straps line up linearly. They’re not in the same line so you’ll never actually get hotspots to the same spot of your foot zero uses a mid volume. Last which is between the italian model on one hand which is typically very thin. Think seedy shoes and on the other hand you have the american japanese model. Which tends to have a big wide-open entry and then you have to mold the shoe. Down to your foot think of the shimano heat moldable shoes jiro went through 16 last revisions. Before they came out with launched at markets and the us comes in half sized. Greetings throughout the entire size and spectrum. The last big speaking points about these. Shoes is the support now your a-courtin. When he was with specialized thought that the foot beds did not automatically. Need a one-degree canting rather it. Would be much more important to address arch support issues so if you think about it makes a lot of sense most people have a natural arch to certain extensions and if this is your foot. Inside the shoe what’s happening is when. You apply force to the pedal on the down stroke first the foot is pushing. Down to fill the volume with the shoe and. Potentially your toes move forward creating fictional hotspots and then only once the foot is completely collapsed you start applying pressure. Onto the pedals so power transference. Becomes a big issue so what they’ve done is with every shoe model you get a. Footed as well as three arch supports. High medium and low moving through the. Range of shoes on offer here at the top. Of the line we have the pro light sls and the idea was jira wanted to make the lightest cycling shoe on the market so. Notably they didn’t actually put a buckle at the very top they found that a strap would. Weigh less and keep you equally as. Secure so the carbon outsole uses easton. Ici 90s lx carbon which is the lightest that they make yes the strongest uses the. Asian 100 microfiber upper the straps. Are all offset from each other to avoid hot spots they actually use titanium. D-ring loops as well as titanium screw. Threads for your cleats and it weighs. 205 grams next down the line we have the. Zero factor which uses easton’s ec 90. Carbon outsole has the same offset. Straps aluminum dearing’s. And steel screw threads but this time. They actually use an italian ratcheting. Buckle which moves one date science at a. Time so it’s very good for being a micro. Adjustments well on the bike as well there’s actually two positions which you can put the buckle on the shoe this shoe. Weighs two hundred fifty-five grams and almost the differences between the factor and the slx are pretty minor on. The good better massive spectrum zero. Trans represents a good it uses the east. And ec 70 carbon outsoles so it’s a. Little bit heavier a little bit less stiff uses the same offset straps the. Same it’s hollien ratcheting buckle with two positions but notably this is the. Aegis antimicrobial compound on his. Insole which will eventually wear off. Over time as opposed to in the upper two models there’s the ecstatic antimicrobial threading the shoes weight. A little bit more to, but they have a sister model called me trane’s hp which uses a high-volume. Glass and wood represents a double-wide. Shoe but not necessarily any longer zero. Cycling shoes over one year in the market have already jumped in the number three cycling shoe manufacturer, so we. Invite you to check out what it’s all about.
Get ready to hit the trails, knock out that commute to work, or even attend a spin class in the Women’s Multi Air Flex Mountain Bike Shoe from Louis Garneau. We can’t decide if its versatility or low barrier of entry is what we value most, but that combination certainly makes this shoe a winner if you’re in the market for your first pair of clipless cycling shoes. Using Louis Garneau’s standard fit, it offers a slightly roomier last for all-day comfort that’s specially designed for the shape of the female foot offering excellent performance.
This shoe’s upper is crafted from a durable synthetic leather with mesh inserts for breathability. Three hook-and-loop closures make getting in and out of the shoes super easy and offer a solid, yet soft support over the top of your foot. A ventilated EVA insole keep feet from overheating on long summer rides and prevents any hot spots or other foot discomforts. At the rear of the shoe is Garneau’s HRS-80 heel stabilizer that keeps the rear of your foot anchored in place for efficient pedaling. On the outside of the heel are reflective accents allowing for visibility to motorists in low-light. For the sole, the Multi Air Flex nylon and fiberglass outsole offers just enough toe flexion for easy walking while off the bike. The sole accepts 2-bolt cleats that are used on almost every mountain bike pedal.

Hey everybody it’s me sam your friend your pal your buddy your comrade your homie spin shoe guru here bicycles nyc. And we’re gonna talk about a shoe that’s actually a pretty smart shoe to buy up. Here on a real budget and you don’t spin too frequently so this is gonna be a. Good shoe for you know i spent a day a week i spent a day a month i spent every now and then with my girlfriend something like that it’s the louie garneau multi-flex air. And i really like the shoe at the price. Point it comes in really low at about a. Hundred bucks the color is okay the shoe. Itself is okay but they have some optimized feature for indoor cycling that i really like so let’s get into the. Box and show you the shoe and we could. Talk about it so there it is right there this is the women’s louis garneau. Multiflex air shoe and there are a. Couple of things that make this shoe really good friend or spin one it’s very ventilated so there’s a lot of mesh on the upper and that’s good because it. Helps keep your feet cool and dry and there’s not a lot of moving air inside a. Spin studio so cool and dry is done. Definitely a beneficial quality to have an indoor cycling shoe the second thing. Is it’s three velcro straps so they’re keeping the price point down anybody who. Wears a shoe is not gonna be a five-day-a-week spinner another thing. That i really like about this shoe is the shoes very walkable so before i get. To the inside i want to show you you know the outsole here and you can see maybe if you zoom in there for you guys. You can see how the toe is actually. Separate then then the main platform of. The shoe itself and that’s so when you’re walking your toe can flex and. That’s why they call this shoe the multiflex there cuz we actually don’t want our outsole to flex but we do want. The toe box itself to flex a little bit so when we’re walking to the bike and from the bike you know it’s a little bit easier than just clomping around secondly you notice that ramped profile. Here i put against my forehead maybe that’s piece of paper here see. That ramped profile on the heel lug itself so that means when you’re walking. In the shoe the transitions gonna be a little better it’s not gonna be a hard jutting edge which is nice so you know. Really the shoe is intended to walk to the spin biking back and that’s that’s that’s smart i mean lilly garneau smart. They’re smart guys those canadians it is. A very padded internal shoe so the first time you put it on it’s gonna be pretty comfortable the mesh is gonna stretch. Out a smidge so if your foot is a little. Bit wider than normal you know that’s the mesh is going to accommodate that. Hammertoes you know things like that. Probably aren’t gonna be as bothered in the shoes they wouldn’t other shoes because that mesh is gonna be so forgiving let’s take a look at the. Insole so here you have your standard evie a yeah that’s pretty unremarkable. You know honestly like you can get your. Own insole okay this stuff really isn’t. Helping you i mean it’s good it’s light. It’s not perforated maybe it’ll breathe. Maybe it won’t i don’t wear these so you know i don’t really know but um you know another good. Thing about lugano is they vent the outsole of the shoe a lot so you know. They they’re really they’re really good about you know making sure that the shoe is gonna breathe and that the shoes gonna dry quickly so you know that’s. Just another nice quality to add to the mix so in short the louie garneau. Multiair flex pretty nice black color. Transition heel for ease of walking transition toe that’ll actually flex again for ease of walking they have this. Reinforced fiberglass plate that should keep the pedaling relatively stiff we. Have lots of venting mesh up top to keep. Your foot dry and cool padded inner pretty crappy insole itself all in all. For a hundred dollars you know you spin a day a week you spend two days a week or you know maybe a day a month two days. A month this is gonna be a great shoe for you so you know come down to. Bicycles nyc you can try the shoe on or pretty sure you can buy these for pennies on the internet. I’m sam to spin shoe guru thanks for stopping by moore’s shoe reviews to come.
