Gravel riding demands footwear that can handle everything from smooth tarmac to loose fire roads, technical trails, and hike-a-bike sections. That’s where gravel shoes shine—offering a balance of stiffness, walkability, and durability that road and MTB-specific shoes can’t match.

At BikesOnline, we stock a range of gravel cycling shoes designed to give you comfort, efficient power transfer, and confidence on unpredictable surfaces. Whether you're racing through the dust or exploring remote backroads, the right pair of gravel shoes makes all the difference.

Ride Further with Purpose-Built Gravel Cycling Shoes

Gravel shoes take the best features of road and mountain bike shoes—and blend them for all-surface versatility:

• Stiff soles for pedalling efficiency
• Grippy treads for off-bike traction on rocks, roots, or mud
• Reinforced uppers for durability against debris and abrasion
• Two-bolt cleat compatibility for use with clip-in pedals, SPD-style systems, or hybrid platforms

Some models are lightweight and performance-focused, while others are built tough with rugged outsoles and adventure-ready details—perfect for bikepacking and multi-day gravel trips.

Designed for All-Day Comfort

Because gravel rides often involve long hours in the saddle and unexpected hike-a-bike moments, comfort is key. Most gravel shoes offer a secure fit using:

• BOA® dials, Velcro straps, or lace-up closures for precision adjustment
• Breathable mesh panels or perforated uppers for ventilation
• Roomier toe boxes compared to racing shoes, ideal for swollen feet on long rides

Pair them with cycling socks designed for hot conditions or wet gravel grinds, and you'll be set for hours of riding.

Match Your Shoes with the Right Gear

To get the most from your gravel shoes, pair them with compatible gear from across our store:

• Clip-in Pedals – Lightweight, reliable two-bolt SPD systems for maximum efficiency
• Chains & Quick Links – Keep your shifting clean and crisp when the route turns dusty
• Socks – Choose breathable, moisture-wicking pairs for temperature regulation and comfort
• Bibs & Knicks – Boost endurance with proper padding and support during long gravel adventures
• Sunglasses – Protect your eyes from dust, glare, and changing light on open gravel roads

If your rides blur the line between exploration and endurance, our gravel shoes are ready to go the distance.
