Pearl Izumi X-Alp Summit Shoes Men’s

Named “Best Bikepacking MTB Shoe” by Gear Patrol

When adventure calls, the X-Alp Summit Shoes answer with confidence, control, and all-day comfort. Built for riders who tackle rugged terrain and unpredictable conditions, these shoes blend efficient power transfer with off-the-bike versatility, making them the ultimate choice for mountain biking, gravel grinding, and bikepacking.

A stiff yet walkable composite sole ensures optimal pedaling efficiency without compromising mobility. The Vibram ECOSTEP outsole delivers exceptional grip on rocky hike-a-bike sections, while a reinforced toe cap protects against unexpected trail debris.

The seamless, lightweight upper balances durability with breathability, keeping your feet cool and comfortable on long climbs and fast descents. A BOA Fit System with a micro-adjustable dial and Velcro forefoot strap creates a precise, locked-in fit that eliminates pressure points and enhances control.

With a water-resistant upper to fend off mud and moisture, the X-Alp Summit Shoes are built for riders who refuse to let terrain, weather, or distance hold them back. Pair them with our mountain bike shorts for a complete off-road setup, or explore our full range of cycling shoes to find the perfect fit for your next adventure.
