Features
Features of Giro Imperial Shoes
Synchwire: Synchwire construction is a stitch-less upper that's vented and reinforced to create a lightweight cycling shoe with incredible airflow and structural integrity. Synchwire is an advanced composite of thermo-bonded film that provides overall durability, a non-woven internal sheet for distributing the force from the BOA® Fit System to the upper for direct power transfer, and mono-filament mesh for ventilation.
BOA® IP-1 Dials: The BOA® IP-1 Fit System provides fast, two-way micro-adjustability with the turn of the dial. The combination of the dial, lace, and guides reduces weight and provides finer adjustment (1mm increments) compared to traditional buckles, and it offers an instant release function, too. BOA Fit System dials and laces are guaranteed for the lifetime of the product.
Easton® EC90™ SLX2 Carbon Outsole: Our Easton-engineered outsole features EC90™ high modulus carbon for class-leading stiffness-to-weight, with a flat perimeter edge that allows your foot to conform naturally to the shoe's upper for greater comfort.
SuperNatural Fit System: The Giro SuperNatural Fit System includes an adjustable arch support kit with Low, Medium and High arch supports. You can adjust support to enhance fit and pedaling efficiency while reducing the chances of common discomforts like hotspots, numbness and cramping.
