Types of Shoes
Mountain bike: added traction for rugged trails; options for clipless or flat pedals
Road cycling: stiffest soles for efficient pedaling; cleats connect to clipless pedals for maximum pedaling efficiency.
City biking: comfortable, everyday; good for recreational riding or commuting
Find the Right Fit
Choose shoes that feel comfortable from the start.
Make sure your toes have enough room to wiggle slightly.
Your arches should feel snug and supported; your heel should stay in place.
Shoe Closure
Lace-up: most customizable fit, can get wet or dirty in bad weather
Strap: quick to adjust and more likely to stay secure
Dial lace: delivers an adjustable fit with a quick-release cable system
Single-pull lace: easy on and off with a single lace toggle
Clipless vs. Flat Pedals
Clipless: Offers a high level of control while riding fast or technical moves like hopping up onto curbs or over logs. Despite the name, you do clip in and out of them with special cleated shoes.
Flat (platform): Don’t require clipping in and out, so it's easier to bail in a crash. No special shoes required.
What kind of riding will you be doing?
Mountain biking: Flat pedals paired with grippy bike shoes allow easy dismounts; clipless options offer more pedal efficiency, control and power while climbing, and feature 2-hole cleats.
Road cycling: Clipless pedals offer the greatest power and efficiency; often feature cleats with a 3-hole design.
Recreational riding: Flat pedals or 2-hole cleats make it easier to walk, mount and dismount.
Bike commuting: Clipless pedals boost efficiency over long distances; flat pedals let you wear regular shoes instead of cleats.
