SIDI cycling shoes – European craftsmanship for road, MTB & gravel

For more than 60 years, SIDI has been building cycling shoes around three essentials: efficient power transfer, lasting comfort, and a fit that still feels right hours into the ride. Development takes place in Maser in Italy's Veneto region, while the majority of manufacturing remains in Europe. Whether you're chasing personal bests, tackling technical trails, or planning your next gravel adventure, SIDI has the right shoe for the job. Road bike shoes like the Shot 3 and Wire 3 are built for maximum efficiency on the road, while SIDI MTB shoes from the Dominator lineup deliver reliable performance in rough terrain. Explore the SIDI range at BIKE24 and find the shoe that matches your setup.

Dino Signori founded SIDI in 1960 in Maser, a town in Italy's Veneto region long known for its shoemaking heritage. The brand name comes directly from his initials: SIgnori, DIno. What began as a small workshop grew into one of cycling's most enduring brands, not through marketing promises, but through an unwavering commitment to durability and repairability. Development and high-end manufacturing remain in Italy, while large-scale production takes place elsewhere in Europe. The philosophy has stayed the same from the beginning: build a shoe that can be repaired, adjusted, and worn season after season.

Five reasons riders keep choosing SIDI:

• European manufacturing: Developed in Italy with the majority of manufacturing taking place in Europe.
• Built to be repaired: Closures, soles, and fit components can all be replaced individually.
• Shot 3, Wire 3 & Dominator X: Flagship models with full carbon soles for maximum power transfer.
• Five years of spare parts support: Closures, soles, and heel pads remain available long after production ends.
• Multiple fit options: Standard, MEGA, and WOMEN lasts to accommodate different foot shapes.

From road racing to technical trail riding and gravel adventures, the SIDI lineup at BIKE24 covers every discipline. Road riders can choose from the approachable Prima to flagship models like the Shot 3 and Wire 3, both built around full carbon soles for maximum power transfer. For MTB riding, the Dominator lineup ranges from the versatile Dominator X to the trail-ready Aeron, with the grip and walkability you need on and off the bike. Gravel shoes like the Coffee Grinder combine road-inspired efficiency with the walkability needed for mixed-surface riding. We also carry original SIDI spare parts to help extend the life of your shoes.

• SIDI road shoes – From the Prima to the Wire 3 and Shot 3: stiff carbon soles, precision closure systems, and a modern Millennium Fit for road riding and racing.
• SIDI MTB shoes – From the Dominator X to the Aeron: grippy outsoles, supportive midsoles, and enough walkability for technical trails and bike park laps.
• SIDI gravel shoes & spare parts – The Coffee Grinder for gravel riding, plus original closures and replacement soles to keep your shoes performing for years

SIDI develops its core technologies in Maser and continues to refine them rather than replacing them with cheaper alternatives. The result is a technical system built around carbon soles, patented closure mechanisms, and anatomically shaped lasts that have evolved over decades. Underpinning it all is a clear philosophy: every component can be replaced individually, from closures and soles to heel pads. When you buy a pair of SIDI cycling shoes, you're investing in a system that can be repaired, upgraded, and adapted over time rather than replaced.

Carbon soles are at the heart of SIDI road bike shoes. Their high stiffness ensures efficient power transfer with minimal energy loss through flex. SIDI clearly differentiates between its models, with full carbon soles featured on flagship shoes such as the Wire 3 and Shot 3, while more accessible models use carbon-composite constructions. 

SIDI uses two generations of dial-based closure systems. The proven Tecno 3 Push system is found on mid-range models such as the Ergo 6 and Dominator X. Pressing the dial fully releases the closure, while turning it allows precise micro-adjustments. Flagship models such as the Wire 3 and Shot 3 feature the newer NUUN 001C system, an aluminum dial with an aerodynamic shape and integrated lever mechanism for increased tightening force. Both systems are available as replacement parts and can be swapped without specialized tools.

SIDI's microfiber uppers are breathable, skin-friendly, and designed to maintain their shape over long rides. Just as important is the anatomical last design, with a secure heel, defined midfoot support, and sufficient room in the toe box. Newer models such as the Shot 3 and Wire 3 use the Millennium Fit, which offers a slightly wider forefoot area to accommodate a broader range of foot shapes. 

SIDI MTB shoes, including the Dominator X and Aeron, use the SR17 sole. Its rubber tread provides grip on loose surfaces while maintaining enough walkability for technical sections where you need to push or carry your bike. The raised tread geometry around the cleat pocket protects SPD cleats from wear and helps ensure precise engagement even after many miles of use. The result is dependable traction whether you're clipped in or off the bike.

The dial tightens, the Caliper Buckle clicks into place, the cleat engages – everything feels right. That's why we carry the complete SIDI bike shoes lineup, including road bike shoes, SIDI mountain bike shoes, gravel shoes, and spare parts. We ship fast so there's your first ride doesn't have to wait. Discover the SIDI range at BIKE24 and build the setup that matches your riding style.
