About Giro
Giro was founded in 1985 by Jim Gentes, with obsession for design and answering unmet needs. That obsession led him to start making his own products and ultimately resulted in a company committed to serving the rider through personal expression and advanced performance.
Details
Combine iconic minimalist style with maximal performance. The Empire SLX II delivers power from an all-new forged carbon fibre outsole plate and comfort from a completely new flat-woven Synchwire upper, all in a 221g featherweight (Size 43), laced package.
The Empire SLX II brings an even sleeker shape to the Giro icon, with all-new flat knitted Synchwire upper combining the lowest weight paired with the highest levels of comfort and breathability. The unique knitted mesh construction builds the venting into the upper with durability reinforced by a thermally bonded TPU skin. 7 classically-positioned lace eyelets provide unmatched comfort and conformity, while power is delivered by an all-new forged carbon fibre outsole plate which improves the stiffness by 20Nm, all in a featherweight 221gm package (Size 43). The Empire SLX II is simply the best iteration of the shoe that redefined laces.
Features
- TPU Monofilament Mesh - One-piece woven TPU monofilament mesh upper locks in power with the highest levels of comfort and breathability, eliminating seams and enhancing performance
- Unidirectional Forged Carbon Plate - Originally developed for motorsports, forged carbon can be molded into much more complex geometries than traditional carbon fibre composites, and better suited to details such as thickness transitions, cleat bolt holes, and compound curvature. The Empire SLX II plate is 20Nm stiffer than the previous version
- Supernatural Fit System - Giro's Supernatural Fit System includes footbed and adjustable arch support with Low, Medium, and High arch support chips. Adjust arch support to enhance fit and pedaling efficiency while reducing the chances of common foot discomforts like numbness, hotspots, and cramping
