Shimano XC7 SH-XC703 Wide MTB shoes

The Shimano XC7 SH-XC703 Wide are performance-oriented cross-country shoes, designed for competitors and demanding cyclists. They feature a low-stack-height midsole made from carbon-fibre-reinforced nylon (stiffness rating 9/12), which stabilises the foot and optimises power transfer.

The Wide version (approximately 5 per cent wider) utilises the DYNALAST Wide last to provide generous space in the forefoot whilst maintaining precise support. The upper, made from supple synthetic leather and TPU mesh, combined with the ‘surround wrap’ construction (full coverage with minimal overlap), hugs the foot evenly and minimises pressure points.

The dual BOA L6 lacing system allows for quick, independent micrometric adjustment (forefoot and midfoot). The ULTREAD XC rubber outsole offers excellent grip on technical, muddy or rocky terrain, and is compatible with removable studs to adapt traction to conditions. Breathable, lightweight and robust, these shoes are ideal for cross-country, marathons and demanding trail runs.
