Shimano SH-RP5 Cycling Shoe - Women's reviews and deals for sale

If you are looking for your first pair of clipless road shoes—or an upgrade from you existing ones—the Shimano Women's SH-RP5 Cycling Shoes are certainty worth a look. Shimano constructs the SH-RP5s with some features that are a step above entry-level models so they can progress with you, but it does so at a price point that doesn't induce sticker shock. The shoes accommodate all 3-bolt road cleats, so if you're going road clipless for the first time, make sure you look for this in the pedals.

A synthetic leather one-piece upper is constructed on a women-specific last that maps narrower feet allowing for a secure fit. The lower hook-and-loop strap pairs with a Boa dial, providing micro adjustments typically reserved for pricier models. The light carbon fiber reinforced nylon sole offers excellent pedaling efficiency and scores an 8 out of 12 on Shimano's stiffness index. This translate to responsive power transfer for climbing and sprinting, yet it stays comfortable enough for all-day spins.

Runs small

These seemed great other than the fact that they run very small. I am normally a size 10, I ordered 10.5 (Euro 43) and my toes were jammed in the end pretty bad.

Run small

I'm normally a size 5.5 or 6, and in these, I found the 37 was too small. Not expected, and returning. Otherwise, they are well-built and good-looking shoes!

Sizing Changed?

All my bike shoes (5 pairs) are Shimano. I have small and wide feet, and women's size 36 always worked for me. Naturally, I ordered this model in size 36, but ended up discovering that my big toes touched the toe box. I had to return. Footbed arch, width, and heel cup felt right. Price point is good for Boa dial adjustment. I would have kept them if I didn't experience the read more toe box issues :(
