Designed with adventurous trail riding in mind, these shoes blend a lightweight yet durable hiking-friendly build with a grippy Stealth rubber outsole that provides positive traction on flat pedals. The result is a shoe that's equally at home on or off the bike, making it a great option for bikepacking trips in the desert, adventurous trail rides in unfamiliar mountain terrain, and trail building. This mid-top version adds some additional protection to the mix thanks to D3O inserts on the collar that absorb the shock from impacts, along with a neoprene cuff that keeps mud, muck, and debris from entering the shoe.
