    Updated for this season, the Giro Empire SLX Road Shoes get a boost to ventilation thanks to the new thermal-welded Teijin® TPU upper, allowing Giro to keep cool air flowing without sacrificing support for powerful pedalling.

    Description

    Lightweight shoes can often suffer from a lack of support but not here, the thermal-welded Teijin® TPU upper, lace up design and stiff carbon sole of the Empire SLX Road Shoes combine to give you an incredible feeling of stability and power-transfer as you ramp up the power.

    One-piece Synchwire™ Seamless Upper

    While the Empire SLX has the traditional lace-up design, don't be fooled, it's packed with the very latest technology. The eye-catching and innovative upper uses ultralight monofilament mesh, reinforced with thermal-welded Teijin® TPU to provide an incredible level of support for your foot, minimal weight, enhanced durability where you need it most and incredible ventilation around the whole foot. This design hits the sweet spot between low weight, support for fluid pedalling and a high degree of breathability for those scorchingly hot days where even the road surface starts to melt.

    The Heart and Sole of the Empire

    Then comes the heart of any performance cycling shoe - the outsole. Here you'll find Giro's high-modulus Easton® EC90 SLX2 carbon unit, delivering perfect stiffness-to-weight so you enjoy optimal power transfer to the pedals and minimal flex. While it's not the lightest sole unit Giro make it has the durability to stand up to your daily training and hard riding weekend races. Inside the shoe, the adjustable Super Natural Fit footbed system provides optimal pedalling efficiency with customizable arch support for performance and luxurious comfort.

    Designed for racing and training, the Empire SLX Road Shoes deliver the ideal balance of lightweight support, incredible ventilation and the stiffness needed for podium-topping performance. With their lace-up design they also perfectly blend tradition with cutting edge technology. 

    Cleat Guidance

    These Road Shoes are compatible with road bike pedal systems that use cleats with 3-bolt standards, such as: Look Delta and Keo, Shimano SPD-SL, Speedplay Light Action, Zero, X-Series (via 3-hole adapter plate), Campagnolo Pro-Fit, Mavic Zxellium, Time Iclic/Xpresso and Time Impact.

    Customer Reviews

    Giro Empire SLX Road Shoes (2020) is rated 5.0 out of 5 by 5.
    Rated 5 out of 5 by SABGla from Very comfortable and very light Bought these a little while back but hadnt been able to ride them due to lots of snow and then rain. But it was sunny today so they had their first outing (2.5 hrs). They replaced a previous pair i had a couple of years back where the carbon sole split. They are super comfortable. first ride and i hardly noticed i was wearing them. I have narrow feet and the laces work like a charm for me. The are very light too. I love these shoes! Just hope these are a little more durable than the last ones. I would highly recommend them. Pricey but the best shoes i have worn.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by Smeegle from Brilliant Shoes Struggled to get a shoe that fit and was comfortable. I have one foot larger than the other so these shoes did the job. Fitted me superbly, and no more corns on my little toes. the uppers are really soft Result!

    Q & A

    How robust?

    Hi like the look of these but the early model was known for not being very robust. The newer materials seem to be tougher, any idea if they are now likely to be a little more robust?
    Asked by: Daviesc34
    The newer SLX Giro shoes are lighter, stiffer and have an improved fit. They will be more robust.
