Details
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.
