The Shimano Men's SH-XC30 MTB Cycling Shoes are perfect for beginning riders to get their footing with the SPD line. The Shoes have a fiberglass-reinforced, polyamide sole that's stiff, but still flexes enough for comfortable walking when you need it. The upper is constructed of tough, stretch-resistant synthetic leather, and mesh inserts throughout provide plenty of breathability for hot summer rides. This shoe uses a Volume performance last, to give the rider more room in the toe box, for a comfortable, functional fit.
