Pearl Izumi X-Alp Mesa Cycling Shoe - Unisex

Sleek trail shoes that go with drop bars and flat bars. If you like riding dirt on skinny tires and fat tires, the X-Alp Mesa shoes will go with your whole stable of trail bikes. Pearl Izumi has created a shoe that feels as good on your afterwork laps as they do on day two of your bikepacking trip. Combining a Boa and lower strap lets you set your perfect forefoot tension and forget it, then just use the dial lock-in every time you head out for a ride. Securing your foot this way much more natural feeling than putting the strap at the top and the Boa lower down.

• Stiff nylon/composite shank is 3/4 length, providing efficient power transfer on bike and flexibility off bike
• Lugged sole keeps you planted during those hike-a-bike sections
