Our all-new Slate II mountain biking shoes take all the features of last year’s Slate, with the addition of the award-winning X-Comfort Zone technology. The X-Comfort Zone allows the foot to swell up to 5 mm while riding, thus eliminating hot spots and discomfort. It also accommodates wider feet and eliminates bunions over time. The Slate II shoes come with two hook-and-loop straps and a third ratcheting strap, all three paired with our Power Zone technology to ensure an amazing fit that keeps the foot firmly in place. The Ergo Grip 2 fibreglass/nylon outsole provides the optimal balance of power transfer on the bike and walkability off the bike. The front toe box also comes with reinforced panelling for increased abrasion resistance. Grab a pair today and hit the trails in confidence!

Sizing
See the attached images and note below.
The Garneau Standard fit is C. If your foot is larger than standard (D fit and over), we recommend choosing a half-size larger than the size suggested on the chart.
If you are purchasing shoes to wear mainly in fall/winter with thicker socks, we recommend measuring your feet with the socks you’ll be wearing with the shoes.
