DETAILS

AT JUST 185G PER SHOE, WITH PRO-LEVEL PERFORMANCE AND UNRIVALED COMFORT, THE EMPIRE SLX LETS YOU FLY IN FIRST-CLASS STYLE.

To make a minimalist shoe that retains the supportive structure of the legendary Empire while advancing the style, we started with a one-piece ultralight monofilament "Synchwire" mesh upper designed around a classic laced closure to fit and feel like a second skin. Thermal-welded Teijin® TPU adds structural support exactly where it's needed, and a high-modulus Easton® EC90™ SLX2 carbon fiber plate provides the ultimate stiffness-to-weight ratio for power transfer. Our adjustable SuperNatural Fit footbed system is the final touch, allowing you to customize arch support right out of the box for luxurious comfort and optimal pedaling efficiency.

Features

Synchwire

Synchwire construction is a stitch-less upper thats vented and reinforced to create a lightweight cycling shoe with incredible airflow and structural integrity. Synchwire is an advanced composite of thermo-bonded film that provides overall durability, a non-woven internal sheet for distributing the force from the BOA® system to the upper for direct power transfer, and mono-filament mesh for ventilation.

Easton EC90 SLX2 carbon sole

Giro is working closely with the engineering staff at Easton to develop proprietary outsoles that provide the most direct, powerful connection to the pedals without compromising comfort. Using advanced modeling and proprietary fixturing in their extensive test lab, every outsole is engineered to provide ideal stiffness in 3 zones: Toe, Arch, and Heel, while maintaining the lowest possible weight and stack-height (as low as 6.5mm). Additionally, the flatter edges of Giro outsoles allow the shoe upper material to conform to larger or wider feet (what Giro calls the spillover effect) without uncomfortable pinching or binding.

Supernatural fit kit w/adjustable arch support

The Giro SuperNatural Fit System combines a cycling-specific footbed with an adjustable arch support kit. By simply choosing from any of the Low, Medium and High arch supports included in the kit, riders and fitters can independently adjust arch support to enhance fit and pedaling efficiency while reducing or eliminating common discomforts like hotspots, numbness and cramping. The system is available in mens and womens sizes, and incorporates X-Static® fibers in the footbed to fight odors and other bacteria.
