Description
The Imperial™ is destined to lead a lightweight revolution in road cycling footwear. To make a full-featured shoe that rivals minimalist designs in weight, Giro created an ultralight monofilament "Synchwire" mesh upper that fits and feels like a second skin thanks to the dual Boa IP1 buckles with soft lace guides. Thermal-welded Teijin® TPU adds structural support exactly where it’s needed and a high-modulus Easton® EC90 SLX2 carbon fiber outsole provides ultimate stiffness-to-weight for power transfer. Giro's adjustable Super Natural Fit footbed system is the final touch, allowing you to customize arch support right out of the box for luxurious comfort and optimal pedaling efficiency.

Reviews
If the shoe fits ! I've used Giro shoes for several seasons. Why? Because they fit well, which will not be true for everyone. However if the last matches up with your foot profile then they are well worth considering.
The Imperial shoes are light, but rigid. They afford great ventilation and have superior transfer of energy to the pedals.
Boas are sturdy and easily adjustable on the fly. Inside of the shoe is grippy in a good way to maximize power transfer. Only ridden in Southern California winter so far and aerates feet well, never cold if wearing the right socks. Really pleased with my purchase.
