Benefitting from trickle-down technology from Shimano's flagship S-PHYRE range, the XC502 MTB Shoes deliver performance at great value. The glass fibre reinforced sole efficiently transfers power through the pedals while the low stack height further increases efficiency and stabilises the foot. The shoes utilise Shimano's latest outsole technology, with ULTREAD™ compound maximising traction and durability.
The upper is designed to improve support and aid ventilation, wrapping the foot for an almost customised fit and relief from potential hotspots. A velcro strap and BOA dial closure system allow plenty of room for adjustments, even mid-ride.
Shimano shoes run small. If you usually wear a 44, order a 45 here. If you're between half sizes, always go up.

After reading lots of various reviews and struggling to find anything available in my size I came across these, they fit really nicely and are not to slim like some "race" shoes. After a couple of rides the upper has a little more give on them as I start to break them in, the sole is great for walking in and certainly stiff enough when I want to power up a hill. The tread is good for off road sections and they look like road shoes. Service from sigma was excellent as usual.
I always buy Shimano shoes but this model was exceptionally narrow so ended up sending them back. Sigma was excellent. The in-store assistant explained Shimano had changed the fit on some of its recent models - so I've ended up with some Specialized ones instead.

Hi there, Yes this is, Many thanks Joe W
From a single Osaka workshop in 1921, Shimano has grown into the world's most influential component maker. The brand's relentless engineering — Dura-Ace, Ultegra, GRX, XTR — has shaped the way the world shifts, brakes and rides, on the road and off it.
Shimano's flagship groupset, Dura-Ace, has been the benchmark for top-level road components for more than five decades. Every refinement that lands on Dura-Ace eventually shapes the entire Shimano range, all the way down to entry-level drivetrains.
