Shimano XC7 MTB Shoes

The Shimano XC shoe range has been completely redesigned. The Shimano XC7 was developed in conjunction with Boa and Michelin. Boa supplied the IP1 system which allows you to quickly and easily adjust the fit. Michelin offered their extensive knowledge on rubber compounds when Shimano developed the sole. The compound used ensures you have an enormous amount of grip, while the sole is also very light and durable. The upper is made using synthetic leather, while the insole is carbon fiber. Because of all this, the Shimano XC7 is a race-ready mountain bike or cyclocross shoe comfortable enough to use every day.

Extensive explanation size in cm
The size denoted in cm tells you how long the shoe is. This size was taken on the inside of the shoe measuring from the heel to the toes. In order to determine what size you’ll need, you can measure your own foot. Do this by placing a piece of paper on the floor tucked against the wall. Stand on the paper with your heel against the wall. Draw a line at your big toe. Measure the distance between that and the wall, and add approximately 5 mm. The number of centimeters is the size in centimeters found on our website. Which specific EU/UK size you need can differ between brands. This is because each brand uses their own boot tree, causing the shoe to be bigger or smaller than the size would suggest. This is why we’ve added the size in centimeters for all of our shoes. We’ve also categorised our shoes in three different groups: narrow, medium, and wide. In order to determine the width of your foot, you can use this table. Read all about it on our blog!
