Giro Blaze MTB Cycling ShoesWhen the weather is doing its best to keep you indoors, just pull on the Giro Blaze MTB Cycling Shoes and enjoy laughing in the face of cold temperatures and wet, sleety, snowy trails. Mountain biking through winter takes commitment, motivation and the right kit. And with the feet often the first to feel the bite of cold, wet weather, the Giro Blaze MTB Cycling Shoes should be central to your winter cycling kit choice. The aim of Giro’s designers with the Blaze was to maximise warmth and weather protection while minimising bulk. Weatherproof and WarmThe core of the Blaze is a high-performance MTB shoe that gives you the fit and feel you’ll be used to with your summer shoes. This is then covered by a smooth ‘overshoe’ that is rated 10K for both waterproofing and breathability while also being fully windproof. Pull up the water-resistant YKK® zipper, with an inner storm flap, and your foot is securely sealed against the elements. This outer sheath also benefits from a lining in a channelled, high-loft Primaloft® insulation. Despite its low bulk, it gives impressive warmth - Giro rate it down to -7 degrees C - letting you pedal comfortably through the worst of winter conditions. A heat-reflecting insole with a soft fleece face also boosts warmth and comfort.Grippy OutsoleThe sole unit uses a Nylon composite construction, balancing pedalling efficiency and tuned flex for comfort. A dual-injected ‘ice grip rubber tread provides all the traction you need if you have to hop off your bike and push across slippery surfaces. Easy AdjustmentUnderneath the outer you’ll find Giro’s single-pull Quicklace system. This lets you get the fit just right with a quick and simple pull of the lace cords. No fuss, just simplicity and low weight. Winter DetailsWith winter signalling shorter days and riding through the darkness commonplace, the inclusion of reflective details to the back and sides will catch the attention of other road users. Fully seam-sealed stitching also prevents water from seeping inside on your longer rides. Padded ankle zones and reinforced toe and heels ensure slippery trails and lack of grip don’t leave you battered and bruised.
