Why We Like The Shimano RX801 Mountain Bike Shoe
The Shimano RX801 pulls the best features from Shimano’s high-end road and mountain line into a featherweight gravel racing shoe made to go fast. Featuring the stiffest carbon composite sole in Shimano’s gravel lineup, every pedal stroke is enhanced into high power output that makes us want to push the pace just a little bit harder. BOA dials give us micro-adjustments to dial in our fit with precision, while the abrasion-resistant TPU lugs offer extra grip for hike-a-bike situations.

Best shoe so far -

It was time to update my shoes, helmet and gloves. The RX801 shoe was advertised as wide and that is what sold me. Usually get a slightly larger shoe to get my wider foot into it. The shoe fits so well I could use a 44 rather than 45. Very comfortable and easy on and off. Shoes easily finds the clips. Good traction walking on variety of surfaces. Finally will get rid of some shoes that were a mistake. BTW enjoying new Kask helmet too.

Great Fit, Excellent Quality

I found the Shimano sizing chart recommends one size larger than my usual fit. The sizing chart slotted me into a 47 based on my US size 12. I’ve always fit Euro size 46 (except Sidi size 46.5) so I measured my foot according to Shimano’s method on their web site. I measured 29 cm, a size 46 which they reference as size 11-11.5 US. The RX8 fit perfectly from the first time I slipped them on. The TPU lugs deliver a solid, non-slip grip on any surface you walk on. The sole is very stiff and as promised, efficiently deliver power to the pedals. My pedals are Shimano XT and the lugs on the RX8 are designed to fit the platform perfectly. I find this integrated fit prevents cleat noise I’ve experienced with other shoes and delivers a super clean clip-in. The single ratchet BOA Li2 dial is flawless and quick to adjust. I appreciate the dual strap design that simplifies removing the shoes. These shoes are very light and comfortable, I even use them for road rides these days. Great as Cyclocross shoes in dry conditions only as they don’t have toe spike capability.

Stiff, Comfortable, Powerful

Riding now for 30+ years, these are some of the most comfortable mtb shoes with stiff soles I’ve ever owned. They are narrow so if you have a wide foot I wouldn’t recommend. On the positive side the arch support system is great. It comes with two inserts, medium and large, can be used without for low arch and you could easily have custom sizes made. Having ridden over 1500 miles in 30+ mile increments, these stand up for superior comfort and performance. A ridged sole in a cushy glove for your feet.
