Whether you're looking to test the waters of trail riding or have been shredding dirt for years and just need to replace your worn-out old shoes, the Giro men's Carbide R Shoes are right on point to tackle the trail. With molded EVA footbeds for a comfy fit, a rugged outsole, and Giro's signature aesthetics, these shoes cut a clean line through the dirt and mud with style that won't get funny looks at the post-ride pizza gathering. The Carbide R features a comfortable, supportive footbed to cradle your feet and reduce fatigue. A co-molded nylon and rubber outsole provides oodles of traction and stiffness for effective power transfer while keeping the cost down compared to the high price of carbon-soled options. The upper is made of breathable synthetic leather with three hook-and-loop straps that provide a comfortable, customized fit without any irritating pressure points. To cap it all off, pre-drilled holes under the toes accommodate toe spikes for added traction during hike-a-bike situations and extra gnarly trails.
