Product Information
Full details
The Sidi Polvere is designed for gravel enthusiasts and adventure riders who prioritize a natural, secure fit and rugged durability. Featuring a classic lace-up design and a performance-oriented Ergo-feel sole, these shoes offer excellent power transfer on long climbs while remaining comfortable enough for off-bike navigation; however, those accustomed to micro-adjusting dial systems may find the laces require more effort to fine-tune during a ride.

FAQs
Are these shoes compatible with SPD cleats?
Yes, the Sidi Polvere is designed with a standard mounting pattern compatible with most common 2-bolt MTB/Gravel pedal systems.
Can I replace the laces if they break?
Yes, the Polvere uses standard athletic-style laces, which can be easily replaced if they become frayed or worn.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The lace-up design provides a more forgiving fit than dial-based shoes, making it a good choice for various foot shapes, though fit is personal and trying them on is recommended.
Do I need to buy a specific size compared to regular trainers?
Cycling shoes often have a more performance-oriented, snug fit. It is generally advised to follow the provided size guide or choose the same size as your other high-performance cycling footwear.
How do I ensure the shoes last a long time?
Regularly wipe away dirt after rides and avoid storing them in direct sunlight or humid environments to preserve the synthetic upper.
What does the 'Ergo-feel' sole provide?
It provides a balance of pedaling efficiency and off-bike walking comfort, essential for gravel and adventure cycling.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure on the top of the foot
Loosen the laces across the specific area causing discomfort and re-lace with a slightly wider gap to alleviate pressure.
Heel slipping during pedaling
Tighten the laces specifically around the ankle and instep area to ensure the heel counter is firmly engaged against your heel.
Excessive dirt build-up in the laces
Remove the laces and soak them in warm soapy water, then air dry before re-lacing the shoes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For optimal performance, ensure your cleats are properly aligned with your pedal system before heading out on your first ride. The nylon construction of the Polvere is designed for resilience; to maintain the integrity of the material, clean your shoes after muddy rides using a soft-bristled brush and mild soapy water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or machine washing, as this can degrade the synthetic upper and internal reinforcements. Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally in a cool, shaded area—do not place them directly on radiators or use high-heat dryers, as this can cause the materials to warp or stiffen.
