Shimano has redesigned the mid-level XC5 and XCW5 (SH-XC501) women’s cross-country mountain bike shoes for 2020 to deliver more comfort, stability, and grip. The Shimano SH-XC501 has a low stack height improving comfort and stability. The grippy Michelin rubber outsole that is exclusively made for Shimano has been introduced into the SH-XC501 providing optimal grip and traction in all conditions. Featuring perforated venting to keep you cool and lightweight glass fiber reinforced insoles stiffen your shoe without excessive weight; the SH-XC501 bike shoes are highly adaptive to assorted terrain. Reinforced spike mounts are there for you when you need to ride in more extreme conditions.
