FAQs
Are these shoes compatible with SPD cleats?
Yes, the Sidi MTB Aertis is compatible with standard 2-bolt SPD style mountain bike cleats.
Can I replace the heel pads if they wear out?
The sole features a replaceable rubber insert, which helps maintain grip and longevity as the tread wears.
How do I adjust the Firmor support?
The Firmor system is integrated into the closure; tightening the dial automatically engages the lateral support structure for a secure fit.
Are these shoes suitable for gravel cycling?
While designed for MTB, their efficiency and comfort make them a great option for gravel riders who prefer a more robust shoe.
What is the best way to clean the suede-effect upper?
Use a soft brush to remove debris, and wipe with a damp, soft cloth. Do not use harsh detergents or a washing machine.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The shoes are water-resistant, but they are not fully waterproof and may allow water in during heavy rain or creek crossings.
Troubleshooting
Dial tension is inconsistent
Ensure the cable is not snagged and clean the dial mechanism of any grit or trail debris.
Sole grip is wearing down
The rubber inserts are replaceable; check with an authorized Sidi retailer to source compatible replacement kits.
Shoe feels too tight during long rides
Loosen the dial system slightly to accommodate natural foot swelling that occurs during endurance activities.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your Sidi MTB Aertis, install your preferred 2-bolt mountain bike cleats on the sole. Ensure the bolts are tightened to the manufacturer's torque specifications. For care, avoid submerging the shoes in water; instead, use a soft, damp brush to remove dried mud and trail dust. If the suede-effect material becomes soiled, wipe it gently with a non-abrasive cloth and mild soap. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent material damage or deformation of the heel counter.
