Gauge Cycling Shoe - Men's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I reach for the Gauge when I want something that feels like a trail runner but still gives me solid power transfer. The injected-nylon shank is stiff enough for efficient pedaling, but the rubber outsole grips really well when I’m off the bike. The Synchwire upper breathes better than most lace-up shoes I’ve ridden, and the laces stay put even on long, rough rides."

We love the Giro Gauge Cycling Shoe because it blends the agility of a trail runner with the efficiency of a dedicated mountain bike shoe. When we’re navigating rocky trailheads, scouting new lines, or running post-ride errands, the breathable Synchwire upper keeps airflow steady and comfort high.

On the bike, the injected-nylon shank brings a noticeable boost in power transfer, while the aggressively lugged rubber outsole keeps us planted on loose, off-camber terrain. Reinforced toe and heel zones add durability where it counts, and the secure laces let us dial in a precise, natural-feeling fit. The Gauge is built for riders who want a confident, clipped-in feel without sacrificing walkability or all-day comfort.
