Six of the best cycling shoes - Knitted, fitted and kitted out tech
There’s never a bad time to buy a new pair of shoes, and if you’re in the market for some new footwear, you might be interested to know there are some interesting advances being made at the high end.
At the recent Eurobike show we got a first look at some of the latest shoes, featuring such innovations as liquid metal, knitted uppers, pressure reducing cutouts and more Boa dials than you can shake a stick at.
Here are the shoes featured in the video above:
- Giro Xnetic Knit
- Bont Helix
- Louis Garneau Course Airlite II
- Scott RC SL
- Pearl Izumi Pro Leader IV
- Shimano RP9
- Northwave Extreme RR

David worked on the road.cc tech team from 2012-2020. Previously he was editor of Bikemagic.com and before that staff writer at RCUK. He's a seasoned cyclist of all disciplines, from road to mountain biking, touring to cyclo-cross, he only wishes he had time to ride them all. He's mildly competitive, though he'll never admit it, and is a frequent road racer but is too lazy to do really well. He currently resides in the Cotswolds, and you can now find him over on his own YouTube channel David Arthur - Just Ride Bikes.

Agreed - but with a bit more set-back from roundabout. Also how well respected is this in practice?...

I think they did, from memory back in the 70s/80s... haven't seen one for years though, our current milkman uses a standard van, albeit hybrid.

Yes, sleep apnea produces more CO... I'm not aware of any doping effect but what do I know....

That's true enough. But doesn't address my point that the chainset you get as a replacement will not physically fit chainrings from the chain set...

In all fairness, it almost certainly NEVER happened…

Anyone want to chip in to crowdfund my goldfish breasts project?
Liz Hurley is the best shag ever. Of course, I've never tried her, but I'll put her in my list of "six of the best".
There exist knitted cycling shoes? What a world we live in.
