Shimano Women's XC102W MTB Shoes

Shimano Women's XC102W MTB Shoes

What sets the Shimano Women's XC102W MTB Shoes apart from typical budget cycling shoes is Shimano's thoughtful approach to foot comfort and security. The three robust hook-and-loop straps provide reliable, adjustable closure that's both quick to use and maintenance-free - no cables to snap or mechanisms to jam when you're miles from home. The clever offset strap design specifically relieves pressure along the top of your foot, a common pain point that cheaper shoes often ignore entirely. Combined with the surround-wrapping upper structure that eliminates bulk whilst creating a glove-like fit, and perforated synthetic leather composite construction for enhanced breathability, these shoes keep you comfortable whether you're grinding up technical climbs or spinning through flowing singletrack.

Don't let the accessible price fool you; the XC102W packs genuine performance technology where it counts most. The lightweight, glass-fibre-reinforced nylon sole delivers efficient power transfer with a 5/12 stiffness rating that strikes the ideal balance for both recreational and competitive riders. The low stack height midsole keeps your foot optimally positioned for maximum pedalling efficiency and control, whilst the rubber XC racing outsole provides confident grip for both aggressive pedalling and confident walking on varied terrain. At just 313g per shoe, the XC102 delivers everything serious cyclists need without the weight penalty or premium price of more expensive alternatives.

Pedal Compatibility

These off-road shoes are compatible with MTB and trekking pedal systems utilising the 2-bolt cleat system such as Shimano SPD, Look Trekking and X-Track, crank brothers Candy etc..
