FAQs
Are these shoes compatible with SPD cleats?
Yes, the Sidi Aertis is designed for standard 2-bolt MTB cleat systems such as Shimano SPD.
Can I replace the rubber inserts on the sole?
Yes, the rubber inserts on the Aertis sole are replaceable to extend the lifespan of your shoes.
Is the suede waterproof?
While the suede is durable, it is not waterproof. It is recommended to use a suede-safe water repellent spray if riding in wet conditions.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Sidi generally follows a European sizing standard. It is recommended to verify your size based on the provided UK size conversion.
How should I clean the suede upper?
Brush off dry dirt gently. Avoid submerging the shoes in water; use a damp cloth with mild soap only if absolutely necessary.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty engaging with pedals
Check your cleat position to ensure it is not obstructed by the rubber sole inserts and verify that your pedal tension is set correctly.
Suede looks dull after riding
Use a specialized suede brush to restore the nap and remove fine dust particles after every ride.
Closure system feels loose
Clean any debris or grit from the closure mechanism and ensure the cable is routed correctly through the retention guides.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, install your mountain bike cleats using a high-quality torque wrench to prevent over-tightening. These shoes are compatible with standard 2-bolt mountain bike cleat systems. For care, avoid using harsh detergents on the suede upper. Instead, allow mud to dry naturally and brush it away with a soft-bristled brush. If the shoe becomes soaked, remove the insole and stuff the interior with newspaper to draw out moisture slowly, avoiding direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the material.
