The Empire SLX II is the latest evolution of Giro's laced road shoe. A flat-knitted Synchwire upper keeps weight down while maximising breathability, with thermally bonded TPU reinforcement for durability, and seven lace eyelets allow precise fit customisation and superior foot conformity.

The forged carbon-fibre outsole plate increases stiffness by 20 Nm to optimise power transfer, and at just 195 g the shoe balances featherweight construction with the rigidity serious road cyclists want.
