PEARL iZUMi

Expedition Mountain Bike Shoe - Women's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I've put the Expedition through long gravel days and XC race efforts, and the BOA L6E closure makes it easy to get a snug, pressure-free fit right from the start. The perforated upper keeps things noticeably cool when the pace picks up, and the nylon composite sole gives me solid pedaling efficiency without making the shoe feel punishing during hike-a-bike sections."

All-day rides have a way of testing every piece of gear, and the PEARL iZUMi Expedition Mountain Bike Shoe is built to hold up from the opening miles to the final descent. When the route stretches long and the terrain keeps changing, this shoe stays comfortable and efficient without asking for anything in return.

PEARL iZUMi designed the Expedition around the demands of gravel grinding and cross-country riding, where pedaling efficiency and walkable comfort both matter. The perforated synthetic leather upper keeps airflow moving across the foot during sustained efforts, and soft TX lace guides reduce hotspots so pressure stays even mile after mile. The BOA® L6E reel paired with a hook-and-loop strap lets riders dial in fit across two adjustment points for a secure, customized feel. Underfoot, the 1:1 Next Step Nylon composite sole balances stiffness for power transfer with enough compliance to walk comfortably between sections, while the EVA heel insert adds vibration damping and stability when feet hit the ground.
