FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for road cycling?
While often used for MTB, the Aertis can be used for road cycling if your pedals are compatible with the two-bolt cleat pattern on the outsole.
How do I know if the rubber inserts need replacing?
Replace them when you notice significant wear that impacts your ability to walk safely or if the screw holes no longer hold the insert firmly.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Sidi Aertis are water-resistant to handle light splashes, but they are designed to be breathable and are not fully waterproof.
Can I use my own custom insoles?
Yes, the factory insoles are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics for better arch support.
What is the primary benefit of the Firmor technology?
Firmor technology provides targeted lateral support, which helps keep your foot properly aligned throughout the pedal stroke.
Troubleshooting
Cleat slipping or moving while riding
Check the cleat mounting bolts for tightness and ensure the washers are correctly placed to provide enough friction.
Foot numbness or pressure points
Loosen the closure system slightly and ensure your socks are not bunched; if the issue persists, consider a different insole.
Replaceable insert becoming loose
Remove the insert, clean any debris from the screw holes, and re-fasten it securely using a compatible screwdriver.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your Sidi Aertis shoes, ensure your cleats are aligned correctly with the pedal system of your choice. Use a standard torque wrench to secure the cleat bolts, being careful not to over-tighten. For compatibility, these shoes are designed to work with most standard mountain bike and some road pedal systems that accommodate two-bolt cleat patterns. To care for your shoes, wipe them down with a damp cloth after each ride to remove grit and sweat. If they become heavily soiled, use mild soap and water, then allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent material damage. Regularly inspect the rubber inserts for wear and replace them once the tread pattern becomes significantly flattened.
