Description of Experience the Superior Performance of ๐Ÿšด Pearl Izumi Men's X-Project 1.0 Cycling Shoe

100% Synthetic. Imported. Synthetic sole. Seamless 9mm second skin upper: the thinnest upper on the market, it adapts comfortably to your unique foot shape to eliminate hot spots and offers superior breathability. Power web: a non-stretch web that easily conforms to your foot, but keeps you bolted to the pedal. Seamless construction in the toe area for no-seam comfort in the flex zone. Bi-Directional closure: delivers a semi-custom fit by gathering equally from both sides for even foot retention, with the precision of a micro-adjustable BOA reel. Run shoe ethylene vinyl acetate foam heel absorbs impact for off-the-bike comfort. Full-length tapered carbon fiber plate (patent-pending) gives on-the bike power transfer and off-the-bike hike-ability. Co-Molded rubber tips on hollow tpu lugs provide traction on an extremely lightweight bottom unit.

Disappointing Cycling Apparel, Avoid this.

My analysis of this product showed that it does not live up to the high standards of Pearl IZUMi, or the expectations of any cyclists who rely on their gear for enhanced performance. The materials are cheap and the design is unflattering. The only positive note is that it fits true to size. Save your money for better Sports and Outdoors gear.

Pros
  • Fits true to size
Cons
  • Cheap materials, unflattering design

Great shoe, hope the BOA closure system lasts.

I usually wear size 42.5, but size 44 fits perfectly here. The dual BOA buckle system works well, allowing me to quickly adjust the tension to the right level. The tongue stays in place well. I have a high instep and many other brands, for example, are too tight and don't fit me at all. Normally I don't have to adjust anything while driving. So far just over 60 km on it and no complaints. I love the insoles that come with these shoes, with interchangeable inserts to customize the sole to yourโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Athletic
Cons
  • Many items

Great but another better option for me at a much lower price

I tried 10 clip on shoes to rate them for aggressive mountain biking - cross country with aggressive descents (didn't ride them just tried on fit/feel) these were my best 2 or 3 after trying 9 (all other options are $75-$250 LESS, first 3 were like this, gyro cam (great but heavy was just an issue), mavic anything or other elite) but I was having a very hard time deciding, tried on one last pair - Shimano M200 - the second when I put them on, my decision was simple - most comfortable, lightest,

Pros
  • Cycling
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
