Full details
The Sidi Tenacia is a premium cycling shoe crafted for riders who appreciate a blend of heritage design and modern performance. Ideal for enthusiasts who prefer a traditional aesthetic, these shoes provide a highly customizable fit through a classic lacing system, though riders accustomed to modern dial-retention systems may find the manual lacing process more time-consuming.

FAQs
Can I use these with SPD or Look cleats?
No, the Sidi Tenacia is designed specifically for cage-style pedals and does not feature mounting points for clipless cleats.
How do I maintain the microfiber upper?
Use a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive brushes or harsh chemical cleaners.
Are these shoes suitable for racing?
These are primarily designed for touring, commuting, and recreational riding rather than high-intensity competitive racing.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the Tenacia insoles can be removed and replaced with custom orthotics if preferred.
How should I store them between rides?
Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the microfiber from drying out or fading.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel loose after short ride
Ensure you are using a double knot and that the lacing tension is distributed evenly across all eyelets.
Foot numbness during long rides
Loosen the lacing over the arch area to accommodate natural foot swelling during exercise.
Difficulty inserting foot into cage pedal
Ensure the shoe's heel is fully seated in the pedal cage and that the strap is appropriately tensioned.
Pros and Cons
Pros

- Reinforced heel cup for increased power transfer and stability

Cons
- Laces take longer to adjust than modern dial systems

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, ensure your foot is centered before tightening the laces; start from the bottom eyelets and work your way up to balance the tension. These shoes are specifically engineered for compatibility with cage-style pedals; they are not intended for use with modern bolt-on clipless cleats. For care, wipe down the microfiber upper with a damp, soft cloth after every ride to prevent salt and road grime buildup. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to maintain the integrity of the microfiber material and the structural foam in the heel.
