    Pearl Izumi has combined an airy sport upper with the award-winning outsole to produce the women's X-Alp Drift II, a summer biking shoe you can use in or out of the pedals.

    • Stiff nylon plates provide toe spring, flexibility and rigidity for pedaling and enhance off-the-bike comfort
    • Lightweight, soft EVA midsoles absorb shock, return energy and provide cushioning; additional support in heel pad supplies cushioning off the bike
    • Quick drying, highly breathable mesh and synthetic uppers offer protection and durability; low-cut construction reduces overall weight
    • Linings feature a barefoot construction that provides a comfortable fit with or without socks
    • The women's Pearl Izumi X-Alp Drift II features a quick lacing closure system that takes just 1 pull for an exact fit
    • Rugged carbon rubber lugged outsoles supply superior traction
    • SPD compatible (cleats sold separately)

    Please note: Pearl Izumi products cannot be shipped to Canadian addresses.

          I bought these after reading other great reviews about this shoe. They are a very good fit with good ventilation. A few more choices of color might be nice. I have no problems walking around town or hiking up hills in the woods.

                Comments about Pearl Izumi X-Alp Drift II Mountain Bike Shoes - Women's:

                I bought this shoe to wear on my road bike. I usually go between 15 and 30 miles with friends and we like to stop for food or drinks often times. I thought this shoe would allow me to use my clipless pedals as well as be comfortable for short walks off the bike. It doesn't look to odd to wear, far more functional than a road shoe, so I chose this one. Another plus I didn't realize when purchasing it, the front is ventilated, so it doesn't get too hot. I was deciding between this one and another pearl izumi shoe, but went with this because of the unique elastic easy on easy off laces. Way better than bows that can easily catch or untie!

                    This shoe has all the features I was looking for, but the toe box is tight. Sending back to try size larger. Definitely has the sole I was looking for and plenty of ventilation. Hope larger size does the trick.
