Empire SLX II Road Shoes

The Empire SLX II brings an even sleeker shape to a Giro icon, with an all-new flat-knitted Synchwire upper that combines very low weight with the highest levels of comfort and breathability. The knitted mesh construction builds venting into the upper, reinforced for durability by a thermally bonded TPU skin. Seven classically positioned lace eyelets provide unmatched comfort and conformity, while power is delivered by an all-new forged carbon fibre outsole plate, all in a featherweight 195g package.

Features
