[Closed] new stiff mtb shoes

I'm a massive fan of my shimano XC7's - they are good and stiff, comfortable, they have grippy michelin rubber on the soles and the upper has a slight plasticcy coating so water/mud runs off to a certain extent. Would buy again in an instant.

Giro VR90s - stiffer than a stiff thing

ace, thanks. i will check them out

I use S-Works XC for that.  Comfy, stiff, light.

I have some bontrqnger xxx in the classified . Bontragers lightest and stiffest shoe. Size 44

Another vote for Shimano XC7 here

I have some no fear jobs from sports direct. They are great. They were £15. There are lots in there with very stiff soles for not much money.

S-works XC. Comfy as a slipper, stiffer than an Amsterdam window cleaner

I’m another happy xc7 owner  🙂

Bont shoes. Heat mouldable so comfortable but super stiff and good prices available if you look around

Possible wrong end of the stick there chap.

I know that Sidi are not cheap, but they are light, stiff, tough as old boots and comfortable - I wore a pair for over 30 days and did loads of hike a bike  too. If you can still get a pair of Eagle 6's with velcro tabs and the push through ratchet rather than the twisty buckle, they will last ages. I've still got a pair form 2011 TD race - these are only ride to the pub shoes now, but they are still alive!

How have I got the wrong end of the stick?  Is the stick over priced and condescending?

And another for XC7 too. Stiff enough but still comfortable 🙂

I bet I could bend the soles with my hands. Can't do that with a proper pair of shoes.
