Imperial is Destined to Lead a Lightweight Revolution
To make a full-featured shoe that rivals minimalist designs in weight, Giro created the Imperial road shoe, which features their own ultralight monofilament synchwire mesh upper that fits and feels like a second skin.
Wired for Speed
The Imperial's Synchwire upper features BOA® IP1 dials and soft lace guides, which allow you to adjust your fit on the fly while reaping the benefits of the shoe's light weight. Thermal-welded Teijin® TPU adds structural support exactly where it's needed, and a high-modulus Easton® EC90 SLX2 carbon fiber plate provides ultimate stiffness-to-weight for power transfer. Our adjustable SuperNatural Fit footbed system is the final touch, allowing you to customise arch support right out of the box for luxurious comfort and optimal pedalling efficiency.
