No matter whether we are kicking it at the jump line or just out for a casual trail ride, having mountain biking-specific shoes makes all the difference. We love the Shimano GF600 MTB shoe to give us enhanced comfort, performance, and protection on the bike. The Shimano GF600 is a premium flat pedal mountain bike shoe with a lightweight, low-top construction. A reinforced toe cap protects against rock strikes, and a layered EVA midsole absorbs impacts, provides stiffness for power transfer, and combines with Shimano's TORBAL 2. 0 torsional midsole for excellent edge flexibility when cornering. A lace closure system makes for a simple and secure closure, and Shimano's Ultread GF rubber compound provides exceptional grip both on and off the bike.
