Description | Gravel adventure shoes designed for lightweight and comfortable riding, and walkability. - Surround wrap, synthetic leather upper with micro-perforation provides a comfortable sock-like fit: Surround Wrapping Upper surrounds the whole foot with a seamless tongue which creates a better fit with fewer gaps between shoes and feet - Mesh insert for breathability and comfort - BOA L6 dial and toe strap allows quick and precise micro-adjustment for a dialled-in fit - Carbon-reinforced nylon sole provides race-level rigidity for enduring pedalling performance on day-long rides - Brand new proprietary sole design with wider, lightweight and durable TPU lugs for reliable comfort and confidence off the bike - Lightweight gravel-race-inspired outsole - Shimano Dynalast - Optimised Shoe Last: The toe-spring section of a cycling shoe plays a key role in supporting efficient pedalling. Too high, and it causes increased tension in the plantar, calf and hamstring muscles. Too low, and you get a bowlegged, inefficient pedalling form. Extensive research by Shimano's R&D experts has produced a superior shoe last design with an optimised toe-spring section that promotes a smoother, more energy-efficient upstroke. Built based on feedback from pro riders, Shimano Dynalast helps reduce energy loss on long rides, letting you keep more in the tank for that final sprint to the line. - Silvadur anti-microbial treatment - Unique foil camo finish - Reflective print on heel - Weight: 274g (size 42, single shoe) - Stiffness rating: 8 Shimano RX6 shoes review, Cycling Plus magazine, May 2023: "In short, these are excellent shoes for gravel riding, rough-stuff touring, day-to-day winter riding and more. I found them comfortable, practical and versatile - and easy to clean after muddy winter rides. They're comfortable and grippy off the bike, yet I found the soles were also stiff and supportive enough when I was cycling." The Good - Very neat construction - Excellent comfort - Good grip - Well-ventilated uppers and soles - Good price The Bad - Only modest reflective details Shimano RX6 shoes review, road.cc magazine, August 2024: "The RX6 is a cracking cycling shoe. It's stiff enough for non-racing riding, comfortable enough for all-day riding and there's enough compliance to avoid discomfort when you're walking. I think it's a great contender if you're after a one-shoe-to-do-it-all. The RX6 is light and doesn't look out of place whether you're riding road, gravel or even on BMX tracks. And while Shimano has other contenders in this category, the RX6 is the cheapest of the three, and I don't think you'd need to spend more unless you need more grip in the mud or a stiffer sole." Verdict: Comfortable and stiff-enough gravel SPD shoe that works equally well on the road too |
