Shimano SH-GF800 – MTB Gravity Flat Shoes

This shoe is your ticket to the next level: the GF800 MTB Gravity Flat shoe from Shimano

The SHIMANO ULTREAD GF rubber compound and the wide, hexagonal tread pattern are optimally matched to flat pedals and offer maximum pedal grip even in cold conditions. An optimized neoprene shaft hugs the ankle and effectively protects it from stones and dirt, while the robust toe cap provides further protection. The torsional TORBAL 2.0 midsole provides targeted flex in the outer area of the sole, which significantly increases bike control and dynamics in corners and on fast descents.

Multi-layer EVA foam cushions impacts, and water drainage channels in the outsole ensure a secure footing at all times – even when walking on muddy trails.

BOA System
The Boa® system offers infinitely variable adjustment for the perfect fit. Flying one-hand adjustment, secure tightening and quick release.

TORBAL
The human foot has just the right combination of flexibility and resilience to master movement on all types of terrain. Why shouldn’t this also apply to shoes for off-road biking? SHIMANO understands the demands of aggressive trail riding and racing and provides the right amount of protection, stability and flexibility for the really tough situations.
TORBAL (Torsional Balance) improves balance and bike control by allowing the heel a certain amount of lateral movement. At the same time, pedalling efficiency is optimized at the transition between the sole and cleat. Flexibility improves the rider-pedal connection in response to the bike’s dynamic interaction with the terrain, providing sustained comfort and maneuverability across the full range of rider movements.
