FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the Nucleus Air Low Shoes feature a full mesh construction for maximum breathability and are not waterproof. They are designed for dry conditions and ventilation.
Can I walk comfortably in these shoes off the bike?
Yes, the Materiis compound sole is specifically designed for optimal grip, comfort, and walkability on various terrains, making them suitable for use off the bike.
What is D3O® protection?
D3O® inserts are made from a smart material that is soft and flexible in its natural state, but locks together and stiffens instantly on impact to absorb and dissipate energy, providing effective protection.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to the Sidi size chart and measure your foot length. The shoes feature an anatomical profile and ergonomic last designed for comfort and control across a wide range of foot types.
What is the main intended use for these shoes?
These shoes are primarily intended for urban riding, commuting, and light adventure, offering a balance of protection, comfort, and versatility.
Do these shoes offer ankle support?
The Nucleus Air Low Shoes incorporate D3O® inserts for impact protection and the Fortex® system for stability. While they offer more support than standard casual shoes, they are low-cut and provide less rigid ankle support than full motorcycle boots.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel loose during ride
Re-tighten the extended lacing system and ensure laces are securely knotted or tucked.
Feet feel too warm on long rides
Ensure the full mesh construction is not obstructed and consider using moisture-wicking socks.
Sole seems slippery on wet surfaces
Clean the Materiis sole with water and allow it to dry. Note that all soles have reduced grip on extremely slick surfaces.
Stiffness around the ankle
Ensure the lacing system is not overtightened and the D3O® inserts are properly seated. Break-in period may be required.
