DZR Zurich women’s boots blend function & style

DZR’s latest urban cycling shoe is a limited edition zip-up boot designed for women. Mixing the look of a stylish tall boot with a cycling specific SPD-compatible construction, DZR’s owner & designer Shane Rattazzi calls the Zurich 2.0 boots “just about the only clipless shoes you would want to wear with a skirt, ’cause we can mash on our pedals and still wear a dress.”

Available in limited quantities, she wanted a minimalist design to transition from bike to around town. The Zurich 2.0 is made of a mix of a nubuck leather/textile upper with a full-length zipper, and an SPD-ready natural gum sole. It gets a leather lining to fit closely to the foot, and features a Variable Flex Shank that balances pedaling efficiency & walkability. The $230 shoes are available in this steel blue or burgundy and sizes from 37-40 (although only 39 & 40 look to be in stock now.)

Sidi Matt Line, more subtle matte finish cycling shoes

New to the Italian shoemaker’s 2018 line-up are matte finishes for their top Shot road & Tiger mountain bike shoes. Adding on to the array of standard colors & gloss finishes, the matte shoes aim to be a tiny bit less flashy.

They are still Italian cycling shoes though. So while the majority of the new black or white synthetic Techpro uppers get a matte finish, the still get combined with showy red, blue, or yellow primary colors.
