Reviews over the

Shimano XC702

Shoes are comfortable and meet expectations

Pros & Cons

Very much enjoyed them in the woods. Super shoes for the avid amateur

Pros & Cons

Great all-rounder for mountain biking or gravel. The shoe fits perfectly and is very comfortable.

Pros & Cons

Run very easily because they are flexible. The sole, on the other hand, is very stiff because of the carbon sole.

Pros & Cons

Fine shoe! Fits perfectly around my difficult, wide right foot. No pain on the first rides, a rarity. The shoe does not feel very stiff, especially on the inside-side of the foot it feels a bit flabby.

Pros & Cons

Shoe fits I took the shoe one size bigger. Feels very light around the foot

Pros & Cons

super happy with these new shoes. They're nothing like the cheap lace-up shoes I used to wear. My only regret is that I didn't make this purchase sooner.

This is a really a top shoe. My previous pair of MTB shoes were by Sidi (from the same price range) but the stiffness of this shoe is many times better. And the fit is perfect. One small drawback is that the BOA closure becomes slightly less tight after 'a few hours on the bike. Especially with overshoes, this is difficult to tighten again.

Pros & Cons

Pleasant fit and convenient boa closures. Because there are two of them, you can choose which area of the foot fits most closely. They are also easy to adjust while cycling. Insole provided with sufficient grip & shoe itself walks (for short stretches) pleasantly.

Pros & Cons

Finally found a pair of shoes where I have no pressure pains. Fit like a glove.

Pros & Cons

Good fit

I used xc300s for 1 year, which were a size too small. I finally switched to the xc702 a few weeks ago. There are two big improvements that I've noticed straight away. Firstly, the greater rigidity of the sole, which really gives a better pedaling feel. Secondly, the adjustment (the second boa) at toe level, which allows the shoe to fit perfectly. I'd say these XC702s are neither better nor worse value for money than the XC300s. The price difference makes sense to me, given the improvements I've made. A word of warning: be sure to check the foot size given in cm or mm by mantel. The size given by shimano is highly overestimated. I'm a size 45/46 dress shoe, but the size that fits me for these XC702s is 47 wide.

Pros & Cons

These shoes fit me perfectly, very happy with them. Price-quality ratio is good with 2 boa closures, hard sole. Highly recommended as far as I am concerned.

Pros & Cons

Have experience with shimano shoes this is my third pair every upgrade they are better . Partly because of the detailed size description of mantel measuring and circumference of the feet took the step and ordered online . Indeed it fits perfectly . There is not much choice around here and to send 1 hour for a pair of shoes to fit . (Didn't know you had a lifetime warranty on the boa system at boa itself free replacement set )

Pros & Cons

I use them for BMX racing, and I'm very happy with them. Very responsive to starting and pedaling, thanks to the rigid soles.

Pros & Cons

I do not regret this purchase....

Pros & Cons

Couldn’t find wide version in Poland, which were available in Mantel, perfect for me. This is my 3rd SHIMANO SPD shoes. Until this one wide version I had to buy one size up.

Pros & Cons

Very good fit, the boa system is very easy to adjust. The size determined according to the measured foot length fits perfectly.

Pros & Cons

Fits perfectly. Easy to tighten. Sturdy shoe with comfort. Great for cycling longer rides as well.

Pros & Cons

I have used it a few times now, and it is very comfortable.

Pros & Cons

First outings give complete satisfaction. Comfortable and rigid. We'll stick to the grip part of the sole on the meije ultraraid this weekend!

Pros & Cons

Have wide feet so chose wide last. Are very comfortable!

Pros & Cons

Excellent quality shoes. Fleeing the atop closures with which I have had a thousand problems, this shoe is a safe bet.

Pros & Cons

High-performance and comfortable, I've already been able to ride 150km in these shoes without any discomfort or feeling of heat, despite the heat. The sole is very comfortable to wear, unlike the higher-end shoes I've had in the past.

Pros & Cons

I immediately felt good about these shoes. It feels like I don't have them on my feet. I am satisfied with them.

Pros & Cons

Stiff yet comfortable

Pros & Cons

The Shimano xc702 is my first mountain bike shoe I bought and am very happy with it, is nice and comfortable, yet tight enough.

Pros & Cons

Great model for mountain biking or gravel, light and comfortable, the BOA system is perfect for adjusting to the millimetre, even while riding.

Pros & Cons

The best choice ever

Pros & Cons

Thanks to the measuring instructions, I found out that I had to be a size 44 with a wide foot. I normally bought Shimano SPD shoes in size 45. Now this 44 with wide fit is just right. Top shoes!

Pros & Cons

They are very comfortable

Pros & Cons

I gave it to my partner as a present and he is delighted with these shoes. The colour is very attractive and as I said before, they are very comfortable. They are perfect for mountain biking. I would recommend them 100%.

Pros & Cons

I have run some mtb miles with this shoe and it feels light and stiff on the foot. Really recommend this mtb shoe.

Pros & Cons

Excellent value for money

Pros & Cons

I have a high instep and struggle to find suitable shoes. These Shimano, also offered in wide sizes, are what I was looking for!

Pros & Cons

The boots are very comfortable, the sole grips well and adapts very well to the foot, they are light, shimano size somewhat smaller than normal, I use a 44 in spiuk boots and I ordered a 45 and perfect.
