PRODUCT DETAILS
GIRO Empire VR70 Knit MTB Shoes - Lime/Black
Go ahead, take a second look. With the engineered Xnetic knit upper, the Empire VR70 Knit™ is a new approach to off-road footwear and unlike any other mountain bike shoe.
THE EMPIRE VR70 KNIT MOUNTAIN BIKE SHOE FEATURES OUR NEW ENGINEERED XNETIC KNIT UPPER, WHICH OFFERS UNPARALLELED COMFORT AND BREATHABILITY, WITH A BONDED TPU EXOSKELETAL SYSTEM TO PROVIDE SUPPORT WHERE YOU NEED IT.
The upper is DWR-treated for water repellency and easy cleaning, while a rubber toe guard and bonded TPU heel increase durability and abrasion resistance. A closed stretch-knit ankle cuff provides superior comfort, additional support and protection from scree out on the trail. All of this is built on top of a stout Easton EC70 carbon fiber sole that offers pro-level stiffness, and a tough, molded Vibram rubber outsole that provides protection and grip when you’re off the bike.

And Megagrip - a high performance sticky compound with significantly more durability and only a minimal decrease in friction compared to IdroGrip. All Vibram soles are produced with 3 objectives: to guarantee the best performance, the maximum level of comfort and quality over time.

Xnetic Knit features a TPU skeletal system bonded to a knit material, providing support where you need it while the knit offers suppleness and breathability, for sock-like comfort and superb ventilation. Xnetic Knit is also DWR-treated for water repellancy and easy cleaning, and reinforced with rubber or TPU toe/heel guards to enhance abrasion resistance and durability.
