Choosing the right shoes

Road vs. Mountain Shoes

The first decision you'll need to make when choosing a pair of shoes is road vs. mountain. Road shoes are typically smooth and provide maximum stiffness for pedaling efficiency, but minimum traction for walking. Mountain bike shoes are usually more aggresively styled, with a slightly more flexible sole for occassional walking/hiking and lugs or spikes for grip. Casual riders, riders using their bike for errands, etc. may prefer to use a mountain bike shoe (even if the bike is never ridden offroad) for walkability.

Cleat Compatibility

Once you've decided on a shoe type, make sure that your shoe is compatible with the pedals you plan to use. Almost all road shoes offer Look style drilling, many road shoes offer SPD style drilling, and a few offer Time style drilling. On the mountain side, almost all shoes offer the SPD setup.

Sizing your new shoes

Road shoes are typically measured in European sizes, as are many mountain bike shoes. Some shoes are measured in American sizes. To choose the correct size, you'll need to convert your American shoe size into a European measurement. Please see the charts below to convert. Note that the charts are specific to the brand of shoe in question.
