Innovative materials for an improved riding experience
The RX801 cycling shoes from Shimano combine innovative materials and a sophisticated construction to offer you an optimal riding experience. These shoes perfectly enclose your feet thanks to their synthetic fibre and faux leather upper, which is not only hardwearing, but also lightweight. A carbon plate in the midsole ensures that energy is transferred more efficiently when pedalling, allowing you to cover longer distances with less effort. The combination of carbon and TPU in the sole provides a stable base that offers excellent grip both on your bike as well as on foot.
Precise adjustment with BOA twist lock
In addition, the BOA twist lock allows you to adjust your Shimano RX801 cycling shoes quickly and precisely. This type of closure allows you to adjust the fit with ease, which increases comfort while also optimising your performance. Plus, the simple operation of the twist lock is particularly practical, allowing you to quickly adjust the tension of the shoes while riding or walking - ideal for changeable conditions.
SPD sole system
Moreover, the SPD sole system of the Shimano RX801 is specially designed for cyclists who spend time on their feet, as well as their bike. Thanks to the recessed cleat mount, you can walk comfortably, while still ensuring efficient power transfer to your pedals. This is particularly beneficial for mountain bikers and gravel bike riders who frequently have to switch between cycling and walking. Meanwhile, the durable construction of the sole provides additional grip on various surfaces, increasing the versatility and functionality of the shoes.
