Giro Empire Trail Mountain Bike Shoe - Men's Black, 44

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I love how the laces let me fine-tune the fit across my whole foot. The cleat setback feels dialed for trail riding, and the Sensor rubber gives solid traction when I'm scrambling up loose sections."Some rides demand comfort that lasts from the first pedal stroke to the final hike-a-bike. The Giro Empire TR Shoe brings timeless lace-up style to modern trail riding, delivering a secure, customizable fit that stays comfortable through long days in the saddle. The one-piece Evofiber upper wraps the foot with a supple, glove-like feel while laser perforations help regulate temperature on hot climbs. Empire laces distribute pressure evenly and hold firm once tied, and a lace keeper keeps everything tidy. Underfoot, the 3D molded EVA footbed supports the arch for sustained comfort, while the optimized 10mm cleat setback enhances pedaling efficiency and stability on technical terrain. Giro's Sensor rubber outsole balances grip and durability, giving us confident traction when the trail turns steep or rocky and it's time to step off and push.
