Shimano SH-GF800 Gravity Flat MTB Shoes Gore-Tex®

Product Description Shimano SH-GF800 with GORE-TEX® - high-performance all-weather shoes for flat pedals The Shimano SH-GF800, GF8 for short, are waterproof platform pedal shoes for gravity use in wet, cold conditions. The built-in GORE-TEX membrane and a sock-like insert with elasticated ankle cuff keep your feet warm and dry. Equipped with a slightly harder Ultread GF outsole with water drainage channels, these shoes offer secure grip in low temperatures and thus support the control of the bike. A TORBAL 2.0 midsole plate, which is stiff in the centre and flexible on the sides, additionally improves feedback in high-speed descents and corners. The BOA L6 dial system is easily adjustable and secured with a plastic guard so that it does not loosen unintentionally when in contact with obstacles. The SH-GF800 are generously dimensioned in the toe and heel area, but close-fitting at the ball of the foot, which benefits power transmission. A multi-layer foam insole cushions impacts and contributes to more stability downhill with its flexibility. To protect your toes, a robust toe cap is used.
