How is the women’s version different?

The women’s models are built on Shimano’s women’s-specific last, which Shimano says is tuned for the smaller volume and narrower proportions of women’s feet; the sole, closure and materials are those of the men’s shoe. We stock them in EU 36–42, and the size guide uses Shimano’s women’s chart. If you prefer a unisex model, Shimano says the Narrow fit of its DYNALAST 2.0 shoes, such as the RX710, is the closest equivalent to its women’s-specific models.

Both are Shimano SPD gravel shoes. The RX600 is the bikepacking and adventure shoe: a carbon-reinforced sole at stiffness index 8, a wider outsole with TPU lugs for walking or pushing the bike, and a BOA L6 dial with a strap. The RX710 is the race shoe: stiffness index 9, a low stack height, the Pontoon cleat system, two BOA L6 dials and the new DYNALAST 2.0 last in Standard, Wide and Narrow. For long mixed days with hike-a-bike, the RX600; for gravel racing and fast events, the RX710.

Gravel or MTB: should I pick an RX or an XC shoe?

Both families use SPD cleats, so either works on a gravel bike or a mountain bike. The difference is the sole. Shimano’s RX gravel shoes (RX600, RX710) use TPU outsoles tuned for pedalling efficiency and walking on mixed surfaces. Its XC shoes (XC503, XC703) use ULTREAD XC rubber with spike mounts for grip in mud and on technical ground off the bike. If you mostly ride gravel and walk on hard surfaces, choose RX; for mountain biking, muddy terrain or cyclocross-style running, choose XC.

Which pedals and cleats do these shoes need?

SPD, Shimano’s two-bolt off-road system: the shoes take SPD cleats and work with SPD pedals, not with three-bolt road pedals such as SPD-SL. Shimano’s recommended pairing for these models is the DEORE XT PD-M8100 pedal. The recessed cleat sits inside the sole, so you can walk normally off the bike.

BOA L6 dial and surround upper

A BOA L6 dial that Shimano says cinches in seconds for a micro-adjustable, precise fit, on the same surround-wrapping upper as its RX8 gravel shoe. A forefoot strap completes the closure.

Carbon-reinforced midsole

A carbon-reinforced nylon midsole at stiffness index 8 that Shimano says balances pedalling stiffness and walkability for efficient all-day events, sending your effort straight to the pedal.

Wide, walkable block pattern

A wider outsole pattern with TPU lugs for comfort and confidence off the bike; Shimano says it adds stability when walking or pushing the bike.

Women’s-specific design

Built on a women’s-specific last for a natural, comfortable fit; Shimano made it for women gravel grinders and gran fondo riders.

DYNALAST: optimal energy transfer

Shimano’s DYNALAST last holds the foot in place to reduce power loss at the pedal and fatigue on long rides, and its optimised toe spring reduces tension in the feet, calves and hamstrings.

Breathable upper

A synthetic leather upper with micro-perforations and a mesh insert that Shimano says improves ventilation and temperature regulation when you’re working hard.

Shimano: cycling shoes are meant to be form-fitting and on the snug side — if between sizes, size up. Wide sizes keep the same length but add about 9–10 mm of circumference around the ball of the foot.

How to measure

Stand on a sheet of paper with your heel against a wall, mark the tip of your longest toe and measure the distance in centimetres. Measure both feet and go by the longer one.
