FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for both road and mountain biking?
Yes, the Aertis series is built for versatility and performs exceptionally well across various cycling disciplines.
How do I choose the correct size?
Sidi sizing follows European standards; please consult the size guide to match your UK foot size to the appropriate EU size.
Can I replace the parts on these shoes?
Yes, Sidi offers various replacement parts, including dials and heel pads, to help you maintain the shoes for many seasons.
Is the material waterproof?
The Politex upper is durable and water-resistant, but it is not fully waterproof; it will dry relatively quickly if splashed.
Does the carbon sole make the shoe too stiff?
The nylon and carbon blend provides an optimal balance, ensuring high power transfer while retaining enough flex for comfort.
Troubleshooting
Dial system feels tight or sticks
Clear any mud or grit from the dial mechanism using compressed air or a soft brush, then ensure the lace is fully seated in the guide.
Heel slipping during climbs
Adjust the dial system for a tighter fit and check that the heel counter is not obstructed; ensure you are wearing cycling-specific socks for best grip.
Sole feels slippery on non-cycling surfaces
The carbon-nylon sole is designed for power; be cautious when walking on smooth floors and consider installing aftermarket cleat covers if walking is necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your Sidi Aertis shoes, ensure your cleats are aligned correctly with the mounting holes on the carbon-reinforced sole using the manufacturer's recommended torque settings. These shoes are compatible with most standard clipless pedal systems. When cleaning, avoid using harsh chemicals. Use a soft brush or a damp cloth with mild soap to remove dirt from the suede-effect upper. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the materials. To ensure the longest possible service life, check the dial closure periodically to ensure it is free of debris.
