Giro Men’s Terraduro Mnt Bike Shoe (Lime/Black, 44)
For security over obstacles when you are forced to hike-a-bike, you no longer need to choose between ultra-stiff road-styled shoes or grippy skate shoes that have no support. Giro’s Terraduro Shoes take the best of both so that you are as comfortable riding your bike as you are walking it. The Terraduro’s uppers are sewn from breathable perforated microfiber. To reduce abrasions, the toebox and sidewalls have been reinforced. Moving down, the shoe features a nylon shank that provides the stiffness necessary to put power to the pedals while still being comfortable to walk in. This comfort is further accentuated by an EVA footbed with a medium height arch support. At the bottom of the Terraduro, but on the top of the list of cool features, is the Vibram lugged outsole. Yes, Vibram, the same compound used on your beloved hiking shoes. This ensures grip whether you are climbing over wet roots or scaling boulders.

Unique shoe style that works well (maybe) despite being a bit chunky I got this shoe to replace an older pair of mid level mountain bike shoes that I bought years ago. I use them on my all-road bike that I truly ride on all types of roads. A majority of my miles are on pavement though so I didn’t want to sacrifice a nice stiff sole for power transfer. I also commute on this bike so I need to be able to walk easily. I’ve done a four day rails to trails tour and a fifty mile gravel race on this bike, so I wanted a shoe that would be versatile in all these…
First they are NOT LEATHER as described by Amazon but …
The outer sole provides good grip and the upper provides a good fit I had a lot of hope for this shoe. And my first couple rides made me feel confident in my purchase. The outer sole provides good grip and the upper provides a good fit.There’s one major flaw though, and that’s with the insole/footbed around the cleat. There’s a concave rectangular portion there, and that depression creates a weak spot in the shoe. I tried filling it in with the hopes the sole logic insert I use would mitigate the discomfort, but sadly it was to no avail…
