SHIMANOSH-XC300 High Value XC Mountain Bike Shoe

Light weightSupportiveEasy adjustment

This being my first pair of clipless shoes I had no idea what to expect, but based on the brand and reviews I read here I went ahead and purchased these. I've since put about 200 miles on them in the last 2 weeks and can say that I love these shoes! Easy on, easy off, and stable on the pedals.One small issue however, I wear a men's size 13 and ordered a men's size 13 and have found that these shoes narrow at the toes more than my other regular shoes and can get uncomfortable after the first hour on the bike. Perhaps next time I will size up, or maybe I just need to "break these in" somehow. Time will tell!

These were my first clipless shoes. I didn’t want to spend a lot of money because I wasn’t sure if I was going to stay with clipless. In experienced rider in general. Use it for my gravel bike. I’ve climbed hills off my bike, walked through streams several times and pedaled about 150 miles. The material is quite good, the flex is fine and I don’t notice any gaps or movement while riding. The grip is REALLY good on dirt uphill and down. This was really impressive and I haven’t slipped at all with these on dirt.One of the downsides, due to this bein budget minded model, is the BOA being in the middle along the “lace” section. So you cannot customize the tightness by your toes and on top of your foot. While this doesn’t feel like it affects my foot clipped in, I do plan to move to a dual adjust system on my next pair.Recommend sizing up 1 size if you have a normal to higher width foot. I usually wear 10.5, went with the size 46(11-11.5).Great shoes for getting started and will get it done for you and get miles in.

Great fit for a guy that wears a 15 plus shoe! Easy to put on and take off! Just nervous if the tightening strings break! What happens! Shimano hasn’t responded to my email 🤦‍♂️

Muy cómodos, y ligeros

As someone with a US 10.5'ish size, I've tried multiple sizes of this, including wide (I never order wide) and none of them really fit. Either too big or too small, but always very narrow. The hunt continues.

Great quality

Nice design and color and very good quality

This pair of SH-XC300 is my 4th pair of SPD shoes from Shimano among my RX8, 301M and XC7. Unlike the XC7 and RX8, XC300 has no option of Narrow/Wide but my usual size "45" (one size up) from Shimano is a prefect fit to me. The design and the shape of XC300 is quit similar to XC7 except using one Boa L6 dial that is very easy to use. XC300 is not too good for long walks (similar to XC7) but it is still way better than the RX8. I'll wear 301M or my Giro Rumble*VR when "walking" is needed. Lastly, the XC300 can use with my pair of Shimano XTR SPD pedals very well but it may need to "hunt" a bit when using my Shimano PD-M8120 pedals on the move. It may due to the extended platform of the PD-M8120. Overall, I like the XC300. It's pattern is quite unique too.
