SH-RC502 Road Cycling Shoe

Treat yourself to the shoe designed for the trials and tribulations of the open road. No matter if you like a long and challenging ride or take an adventure through the city, these shoes are for you. Taking inspiration from the top-of-the-range Shimano RC9 road shoe, the Men's SH-RC502 road shoe brings many of the same features you know and love at a more wallet-friendly price.

This high-quality shoe comes with many of the highly-rated S-PHYRE RC9 features, including a wrap-around upper with a glove-like fit. A carbon sole is reinforced for extra durability on the pedals without wearing down. The single BOA® dial closure system allows for micro-adjustments for the best fit, making this shoe podium-worthy. The seamless, wrap-around construction of the uppers is integrated with the sole for lower stack height.

The eye-catching blue colorway of the Shimano RC502 road shoe delivers style and excellence in one hard-to-miss package. With all the features for a fantastic fit and ultimate comfort without sacrificing power, you won't want to miss this unbeatable shoe at an economical price point.

Features:

  • High-quality S-PHYRE technology boosts performance
  • Wrap-around upper delivers a fit like never before
  • Reinforced carbon sole adds durability without extra weight
  • BOA® dial tunes in for micro-adjustments
  • Upper integrates with the sole for a low stack height
  • Stylish black, white, or lairy blue colorway

This is a powerful bike shoe.

Until I bought these I rode with a more casual type of bicycle shoes. These new shoes have definitely made my pedal power transfer more directly from my legs to the wheels. One thing different about this type of shoe is that they do not loosen up after a few rides, so be sure that the size you order is exactly what fits you when you first put them on.

So far, so good.

I have only had three rides on this shoe so far, but all good thus far.

Pros:

Very light

Easy to put on

Strong BOA design

Seems like durable material on the outer

Cons:

A bit tight in the tow box but probably need to get a few more rides in to stretch them

The medial sidewall seems a bit soft when out of the saddle

A great value

I have been using these shoes for the last few years. I find them to work as well as some more expensive ones.

Shimano RC502 has a stiff sole and is light weight.

I have worn Shimano cycling shoes for years. The RC502 is lightweight and stiff. In the past Shimano offered half sizes (i.e. 45.5) but it seems as if they are only making full sizes now. Great price at BTD.
