The Shimano SH-XC502 bicycle shoes are designed for riders who demand efficient power transfer, secure fit, and reliable performance on every off-road ride. Built around a stiff yet comfortable sole, these shoes help you convert more of your pedaling effort directly into forward motion, whether you are racing cross-country, tackling technical singletrack, or enjoying fast gravel loops. A durable upper with strategically placed reinforcement offers protection against rocks, roots, and trail debris, while still remaining breathable enough for long days in the saddle.
Featuring a modern, low-profile closure system, the SH-XC502 shoes allow for precise adjustment and an even wrap around the foot, reducing pressure points and improving comfort. The outsole is optimized for use with 2-bolt SPD-style cleats, giving you a secure connection to your pedals and confident control on rough terrain. Aggressive tread and grippy lugs provide reliable traction when you need to dismount and run or hike, making these shoes a versatile choice for cross-country, cyclocross, and gravel riders who want a balance of race-ready efficiency and all-day comfort.
