Imperial II AS Cycling Shoe - Men's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I reach for these when every watt counts. The forged carbon plate feels incredibly efficient under power, and the dual BOA Li2 dials let me micro-adjust the fit mid-ride without backing off. They’re stiff, light, and surprisingly comfortable for long efforts."

When we’re lining up for fast group rides or chasing personal bests, the Imperial II Cycling Shoe delivers the kind of locked-in efficiency that makes every pedal stroke feel sharper. Giro refined this shoe from the ground up, blending elite-level stiffness with a breathable, sock-like fit that disappears once we’re up to speed.

The flat-knitted Synchwire upper maximizes airflow while the thermally bonded TPU skin adds structure where we need it most, keeping our feet secure under hard accelerations. Underfoot, the all-new forged carbon outsole boosts stiffness by 20Nm for uncompromising power transfer, while the Supernatural Fit System lets us fine-tune arch support to reduce hotspots and fatigue on long rides.
