At just 185g per shoe, with pro-level performance and unrivaled comfort, the Empire SLX lets you fly in first-class style.
To make a minimalist shoe that retains the supportive structure of the legendary Empire while advancing the style, we started with a one-piece ultralight monofilament “Synchwire” mesh upper designed around a classic laced closure to fit and feel like a second skin. Thermal-welded Teijin® TPU adds structural support exactly where it’s needed, and a high-modulus Easton® EC90™ SLX2 carbon fiber plate provides the ultimate stiffness-to-weight ratio for power transfer. Our adjustable SuperNatural Fit footbed system is the final touch, allowing you to customize arch support right out of the box for luxurious comfort and optimal pedaling efficiency.
