What are the benefits and features of cycling shoes in general?
You might think your feet are taking it easy on the bike given they’re not pounding the pavement like they would if you were running, for example. However, it is no picnic! Your feet are doing a tremendous amount of work transferring all that power through to the bike. As such, cycling shoes need to deliver a number of features and benefits to make your ride smoother, more comfortable and as efficient as possible.
When it comes to great cycling shoes like Northwave, expect features and benefits including:
- Rigid sole - this reduces the risk of injury and increases pedalling efficiency, given there’s no wasted energy that comes with flexing the shoe.
- Seamless integration with pedals - whether clipless or not, good riding shoes need to connect easily and quickly to the pedal for maximum power transfer.
- Lightweight - the feet are doing enough work as it is. Pushing weights shouldn’t add to their load, which is why material such as carbon is ideal.
- Adjustments - whether it is for the position of the cleat or the snugness of the fit, to minimise injury and maximise comfort, a good riding shoe provides plenty of adjustable options.
- Ventilation - allowing the feet to ‘breathe’ as much as possible helps to maintain comfort.
