Tips for Finding the Right Fit

• Consider your foot shape: Shimano shoes come in three widths: narrow, standard, and wide. Determine the width of your foot and choose the corresponding shoe.
• Measure your foot twice: To ensure accuracy, measure your foot at the end of the day when it is slightly expanded.
• Add some wiggle room: Leave about 5mm of space between your toes and the end of the shoe to allow for movement.
• Try on multiple pairs: If possible, try on multiple sizes and widths to find the best fit.
• Walk around: Wear the shoes around for a few minutes to ensure they feel comfortable and provide adequate support.
