dhb Dorica MTB ShoeThe dhb Dorica MTB Shoe offers outstanding comfort and impressive off-road performance and with their lace-up design offers a classic finish to your dirt-riding kit. FIT: We recommend you buy these shoes one size smaller than your usual size.Laces have been used since the beginning of the bicycle, offering riders the opportunity to gain the right balance between a secure and a comfortable fit. For MTB and Cyclocross riders, they have the added bonus of working no matter how clogged up with mud they get. Due to the traditional ‘oxford style’ opening, these shoes allow lots of flexibility in obtaining the correct fit- open or close them depending on your foot shape. The shoe has an elastic lace retainer mid-way down the shoe to keep things secure, tidy, and to ensure they don’t get caught up in your chain rings.The nylon sole offers the right balance between pedal efficiency and compliance for performance and all-day comfort.Perforated holes on the top of the shoe increase breathability for warmer weather riding, or more intense session. The sides of the shoe are more robust, protecting against contact with the terrain or bike. The perforated tongue also helps to increase airflow and shapes over the top of the foot for added comfort when you close the laces. The toe-box width has been increased to accommodate a slightly wider forefoot or a thicker pair of socks for those cooler weather rides. The black inner mesh fabric looks crisp no matter what you ride through.
