SHIMANO SH-RX710 WIDE Gravel Shoes – Wide Version

Note: This is a wider version of the SH-RX710 road cycling shoes. It is approximately 6 or 5 mm wider than the standard model in the toe and ball of the foot. 

Whether it’s for your training, a bikepacking trip or your next ultra race: With the SH-RX710 gravel shoes, you’ll take your riding to the next level. Their combination of strategically placed high-tech features, high-performance materials, a comfortable design and an improved clipless system makes them the go-to choice for long rides off the road.

With a stiffness rating of 9.0, the carbon fibre composite sole of the RX7 shoes offers you the ideal balance between comfort and efficient power transfer. The upper of the cycling shoes is dotted with vents to keep your feet feeling comfortable even on warm days. Two BOA dials ensure a precisely adjustable fit, whilst the SHIMANO DYNALAST 2.0 fit offers more space than the previous version, particularly in the toe area. 

The next stage in the evolution of SHIMANO shoes: Featuring the PONTOON CLEAT, these XC shoes really stand out thanks to their excellent stability in the pedal and consistent pedal contact, ensuring that none of your energy is wasted.

Highlights & Technologies:

BOA L6:
A closure system consisting of dials and stainless steel wires that allow for precise adjustments. This combination allows cyclists to even adjust the shoes while riding. As there are no Velcro straps, the front part of the shoe is well-ventilated. The shoes can be closed by pushing and turning the dials in the direction of travel. The laces loosen by pulling the dial.

PONTOON CLEAT:
With the PONTOON CLEAT system, you can ensure more stability in the pedal. Two blocks frame the cleat on the left and right. These stabilisation blocks are fixed to the shoe with the cleat and sit firmly in the clipless pedal system for unhindered power transfer.
