Rincon Cycling Shoe
Giro inspires performance out of every shoe in their line-up, and the new, mid-level Rincon is destined to become a favorite for off-road riders who don’t need dual-dials and full-carbon outsoles. In a body and design that is essentially the Sector-lite, the Rincon receives the trickle-down of the Synchwire upper for enhanced strength and reinforced toe and heel cups to protect against harder trail hits. However, differing from the upper-tier Sector is the single BOA L6 dial at the upper collar, compared to dual on the Sector, and a less stiff nylon-composite outsole. While these might seem like sacrifices, the Rincon affords toe box compression with a hook-and-loop strap for manual adjustments. And the nylon sole will still see you powerfully over trail obstacles with ease, without leaving you longing for a higher-priced carbon sole.
The inner compartment of the Rincon supports with a medium arch mold and 3D footbed for excellent fatigue resistance for a long day on the bike. An Aegis anti-odor treatment works to fight odor build-up as the Ricon is meant to be an explorer’s go-to shoe for creek crossings and long alpine climbs in the summer heat. And the durable rubber sole provides sure-footing when off the bike and won’t delaminate or splinter under regular use. The Ricon is compatible with 2-bolt cleats and toe spikes for extra muddy adventures.

Nice shoe but too wide
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
I wanted to love these shoes, but they're just too wide&almost as wide as a men's shoe. I thought they would be OK so wore them on a few rides but find that my foot actually twists inside the shoe because I can't tighten them enough around the ankle. When I tighten the Velcro the shoe actually puckers and it's still too wide in the toe box. My feet are a bit narrow but not so much that I have to buy narrow shoes. I'm so sad these didn't work as I love my previous Giro shoes which fit perfectly, but are wearing out after three years of riding. I normally wear US size 9 and ordered these in 41 and the length is right, but the width&.ugh. If you have wide feet, these might be a great shoe but they just don't work for me.
