Key Features of Premium Triathlon Shoes
If you’re after premium quality triathlon bike shoes, look out for the following features:
- Adjustable straps so you can get the shoes on and off quickly. Some triathletes like to have their shoes cleated into their bike, awaiting their arrival into T1. An easy-adjustable shoe makes transitioning to the bike effortless.
- A wide heel loop is a great feature for throwing a shoe on and off as quickly as possible.
- Lightweight construction is paramount. Every gram can count when you’re pushing the mega watts in a sprint triathlon or gruelling it out during an Ironman.
- Comfort is key. Lots of triathletes opt to cycle barefoot so they have time to dry off properly from the swim. Regardless of whether or not you’re wearing cycling socks, the fit needs to be snug and comfortable. We mentioned adjustable straps above – this feature comes in handy for long-distance and endurance triathlons, when the foot is prone to swelling (and the shoe can expand to offer continued comfort and relief).
- Ventilation and water drainage is ideal, especially given most athletes will still be soaking wet from coming out of the swim.
