CONTENTS

It’s 1960, and Dino Signori is unhappy. The problem is his cycling shoes—

they’re leather-soled lace-ups with nail-on cleats, a design unchanged since

the first Giro d’Italia was held in 1909, 50 years prior. As a racer, Dino Signori

is keenly aware that cycling shoes are the foundation of the whole rider/

bicycle connection. He knows how much bicycles have improved since that

first Giro. So he decides it’s time shoes followed suit, establishing his first

workshop in Maser, in Italy’s Treviso province, and names it by taking the first

two letters of his last and first names—SIDI.

As a former racer, Dino Signori is keenly aware that cycling shoes are

the foundation of the whole rider/bicycle connection. He knows how much

bicycles have improved since he stopped racing, and he decides it’s time

shoes followed suit. He’s just the man to do it, with decades of experience

crafting motorcycle boots and ski boots for Olympic athletes under his belt,

and he draws on this experience, emerging from his workshop with the first

pair of cycling shoes to feature adjustable cleat position. It’s the dawn of the

modern cycling shoe era, and SIDI was there first.

That adjustable cleat design was quickly copied by every other shoemaker

in cycling, establishing a trend that continues to this day. SIDI innovates.

Others copy. And in this way, the design of the modern cycling shoe evolves.

22 years after inventing the mono-filament line shoe closure with a rotary buckle, Mr. Dino patents it for cycling shoes. The patent shows rotary buckles located at the heel, as well as on the instep, with three different line routings: tightening across the instep, across the forefoot, and around the heel.

High Security Velcro®

In 2002 SIDI introduced High Security Velcro® (globally patented), with interlocking polymer teeth that engage when the strap is closed to provide a more secure, slip-free closure that dramatically increases the useful life of the Velcro® strap. Today High Security Velcro® remains an exclusive feature of SIDI cycling shoes.

FIVE | CARBON

Secrets of the Pros: Many of SIDI’s sponsored pros specifically request the SIDI Eleven Carbon/Composite sole because of its perfect balance of comfort, light weight and power transfer—it’s slightly less stiff, for more comfort on long days without sacrificing ultimate power. And it’s the foundation for the NEW FIVE, pairing the 11 sole with SIDI’s beloved upper technology: Caliper Buckle two-way ratchet closure, SIDI’s no-slip High Security Velcro® straps and, above all, SIDI’s trademark fit, and the comfort that comes with it—extending from perfectly formed toe box to SIDI heel cup.

And in 2012, she set out to compete in Race Across America to raise funds and attention for clean water awareness, particularly in Africa. With just a week to go she was in an accident, breaking her pelvis, but instead of hanging it up she learned how to operate a hand-cycle, and went for it anyway.

Gore certification isn’t for everyone—you have to adhere to rigorous test standards for immersion, pressure, and other parameters that add up to dry winter comfort. Our Diablo GTX and Hydro GTX boots are more than up to the task. And we have the machine to prove it.

Winter TechHydro GTX employs a four-layer upper for optimal durability, weatherproofing and winter comfort. They feature, from the outside in:• Tough exterior of Lorica panels and

breathable heavy-duty nylon inserts• Seamless inner Gore-Tex® bootie for

waterproof, breathable comfort• Light insulating layer• Soft inner linerThe gusseted upper fits snugly around the ankle, creating a waterproof barrier where ordinary shoes would allow water to enter the shoe around the tongue.

Winter TipFor optimal comfort and performance the wide neoprene-and-Velcro® strap must be snug around the ankle, with tights or rain pants tucked around the outside of the boot. The Gore-Tex® bootie is completely waterproof, so if water gets into the shoes—either from a loosely secured ankle cuff, or it’s wicked in by tights or rain pants tucked into the bootie—that water remains trapped inside the shoe. In that event your feet will probably stay warm, but they’ll be wet for the duration of the ride.

This is the unfair advantage—SIDI’s SP Carbon sole allows direct bolt-up of Speedplay cleats without the need for a base plate. That’s less rotating mass, and an even lower stack height than standard Speedplay setups. Translation: Lower saddle height, less frontal area, and a lower center of gravity that adds up to better handling and a killer aero advantage (Speedplay’s wind tunnel testing shows time savings of 33 seconds per hour, about the same as you’d see with an aero front wheel). There’s no other speed equipment in the world that lets you experience SIDI’s legendary fit and comfort, and gives you this kind of aero advantage with crushing power delivery.

SIDI’s trademark last and supple, conforming upper give you the best foot support for the cycling leg, with engineered stiffness to power through and just enough flex in the toe to relieve plantar tendon strain on long TTs, so you don’t sap your legs for the run. Hit T1, step into some T2s, and get ready to shatter your PR bike split.

SIDI, MTB and Cyclocross: A Historical NoteIn 1985—more than 15 years before the first MTB-specific clipless pedals appeared in the early 1990s—SIDI introduced the first lugged-sole cycling shoe suitable for mountain biking and cyclocross. Twenty-five years later, SIDI continues to dominate MTB Cross Country Olympic and World Championships.

CaliperBuckleBy 1988, clipless road pedals had become the norm, and this presented a new problem—shoe closures were put under tremendous strain, as a pedal stroke’s upward pull had to be entirely absorbed by the shoe without the additional support of a toe strap.Dino Signori’s solution was as revolutionary as it was genius: In 1989, he introduced the first ratcheting buckle closure for cycling shoes, combining the robust holding power and on-the-fly adjustability of toe straps with the strength to withstand the powerful, repetitive pedal stroke of professional racers. It was the SIDI Micro Lock, the first micro-ratcheting buckle.The current Caliper Buckle is the latest incarnation of SIDI’s famed ratcheting shoe closure. It ratchets in both directions, allowing for precise, incremental tightening and loosening of the closure, for easy on-the-fly microadjustment. Pulling upward on the lower lever tightens the strap, click by click; pressing down on the upper lever loosens it a step at a time; an outward pull on both side levers completely releases the buckle. Caliper buckles may be retrofitted to older SIDIs, as long as the ratcheting strap is also replaced by the matching Caliper Strap (which fits older versions of the Soft Instep Closure System).

If you’re in for a wet winter, you’ll want a pair of Diablo GTX boots for those long wintertime rides and commuting runs. An insulated, fully waterproof Gore-Tex® upper keeps your feet warm; the Competition MTB Sole and optional toe spikes gives your feet traction when you have to hoof it. Keep your feet happy racking up miles on those lonely winter training missions, the ones that separate the hard riders from the fair weather cyclists. Make wintertime your fun time, and keep your hard-earned fitness from fall to spring.

Geoff Proctor has been on SIDIs since 1986—basically the start of his competitive cycling career. And when it comes to American cyclocross, he is Da Man. He’s the U.S. National/U23 cyclocross coach; he runs EuroCrossCamp, helping prepare American juniors for racing in Europe; and he’s the only American on the UCI cyclocross commission. Plus he’s a high school English teacher whose new book, Behind the Stare, follows today’s cyclocross heroes to show what it takes to be on top in one of cycling’s toughest disciplines. Pretty amazing chops. Pretty amazing guy.

Winter TechDiablo GTX employs a four-layer upper for optimal durability, weatherproofing and winter comfort. They feature, from the outside in:• Tough exterior of Lorica panels and

breathable heavy-duty nylon inserts• Seamless inner Gore-Tex® bootie for

waterproof, breathable comfort• Light insulating layer• Soft inner linerThe gusseted upper fits snugly around the ankle, creating a waterproof barrier where ordinary shoes would allow water to enter the shoe around the tongue.

Winter TipFor optimal comfort and performance the wide neoprene-and-Velcro® strap must be snug around the ankle, with tights or rain pants tucked around the outside of the boot. The Gore-Tex® bootie is completely waterproof, so if water gets into the shoes—either from a loosely secured ankle cuff, or it’s wicked in by tights or rain pants tucked into the bootie—that water remains trapped inside the shoe. In that event your feet will probably stay warm, but they’ll be wet for the duration of the ride.

VENT CARBON SP CARBONThe 2013 Vent Carbon Sole is an engineering marvel—stiffer and lighter than SIDI’s all-conquering Carbon Lite Sole, with integrated vents and air channels for heat dissipation and improved comfort. The 2013 Vent Carbon Sole now features a NEW ultra-light heelpad and a NEW replaceable integrated toe pad/vent cover. It is specifically engineered for high-performance, high-mileage cyclists.

Like all of SIDI’s hand-lay-up carbon soles, the Vent Carbon Sole is constructed in an Italian contract facility that specializes in carbon fiber fabrication, and includes speed merchants Ferrari and Ducati on its client list. It is handmade exclusively of T700 carbon fiber in a 3k weave pattern (competitors’ carbon soles have little carbon fiber content, or use cheaper, lower-modulus T300 carbon fiber), oriented at opposing angles that maximize stiffness while allowing for a small degree of controlled flex in the toe area that biomechanically relieves stress on the plantar tendon and helps promote circulation. The sole is heat- and compression-molded with longitudinal corrugations that improve mechanical stiffness without added material or weight.

The Vent Carbon Sole is not only light but remarkably stiff, deflecting only 1.4 mm in SIDI’s rigidity test, in which a 50 kg (110 lb) weight is suspended from one end of the sole.

The vent features a sliding cover for four-season comfort, and leads to two longitudinal airflow channels molded into the carbon sole that direct air underneath the forefoot area’s perforated footbed (SIDI’s Comfort-Fit insoles have matching perforations for unimpeded airflow).

The Vent Carbon Sole features a standard 3-hole drilling pattern, printed 10 mm lateral and fore/aft cleat alignment scale as well as the Look Memory Eyelet for easy cleat alignment and replacement.

For triathlon, the vent also serves as a water drain, dramatically improving foot comfort after a wet transition.Available on• WIRE Vent Carbon• WIRE Vent Carbon Women’s• Genius 6.6 Vent Carbon• T3.6 Vent Carbon

The SP Carbon Sole provides Speedplay pedal users dramatically improved ergonomics and simplified set-up, lowering stack height by eliminating the need for 3-hole base plates.• The SP Carbon Sole is SPEEDPLAY APPROVED for superior ergonomics, power transfer, light weight and simplified set-up. • Ergonomics: Direct interface between the Speedplay cleat and SP Carbon Sole reduces sole-to-spindle height by 4 mm and allows 6 mm more rearward cleat placement• Power Transfer: Direct interface between the Speedplay cleat and SP Carbon Sole improves lateral rigidity• Light Weight: Eliminating 3-hole base plates reduces set-up weight by 54 grams per pair. (Sole weight is also reduced by 8 grams vs Carbon Lite Sole)• Easy Set-Up: The SP Carbon Sole eliminates the need for 3-bolt base plates and features a printed fore/aft alignment scale

In SIDI’s rigidity test, in which a 50 kg (110 lb) weight is suspended from one end of the sole, it deflected only 2.4 mm—54% stiffer than the Millennium 3 sole’s 3.7 mm deflection.The Eleven Carbon/Composite Sole is constructed from layered 3k weave carbon fiber and injected carbon fiber in a matrix of Nylon 12, a mechanically stable material that is completely non-absorbent to water, so it won’t change rigidity from exposure to heat, humidity or from aging. It is an exceptionally light, stiff, durable sole.An anti-slip insert in the toe and replaceable polyurethane heel pad help get you navigate through transitions.The Eleven Carbon/Composite Sole uses a standard 3-hole drilling pattern for compatibility with the best pedal systems available, and includes a printed 10 mm lateral and fore/aft cleat alignment scale on the sole as well as the Look Memory Eyelet for easy cleat alignment and replacement.Available on:• FIVE Carbon• FIVE Carbon Women’s• T3 Carbon• T3 Carbon Women’s

DRAKO SRSDrako Carbon SRS Sole In 1999, SIDI revolutionized mountain bike shoe design with the Sole Replacement System (SRS), allowing mountain bikers to replace the most wear-prone part of the shoe—the sole.The NEW Drako Carbon SRS Sole takes comfort and efficiency one step further by dramatically reducing weight (overall shoe weight savings of 100 grams per pair) without sacrificing performance. The Drako Carbon SRS Sole is a pure carbon sole with SIDI’s replaceable tread blocks in the toe and heel. The carbon lay-up provides a slight amount of flex in the toe for a smoother, more natural running gait without compromising the shoe’s excellent stiffness and power transfer while pedaling. As it does in the Vent Carbon and other SIDI soles, this small amount of engineered flex also improves pedaling comfort and biomechanical efficiency by relieving plantar tendon strain. The sole is engineered for the high-performance, high-mileage cyclist who requires a sole that is rigid but does not compromise the foot’s blood circulation, guaranteeing excellent comfort and great power transfer. The Dragon SRS Sole tread are easily removable and replaceable. The Dragon SRS Sole® is toe spike compatible.* Most Dual-Retention Bar type MTB Pedals (such as Crank Brothers and LOOK) recommend using a reinforcement plate between the cleat and the shoe in order to prevent damage to the sole. The Drako cleat wear plate can be replaced in case of damage from the pedal system, so a reinforcement plate is optional.

Sole Replacement System (SRS) In 1999, SIDI revolutionized mountain bike shoe design with the Sole Replacement System (SRS), allowing mountain bikers to replace the most wear-heavy part of the shoe—the sole. Today, versions of the SRS sole are found on the Drako and the Spider. Since the tread is replaceable, SIDI can use an aggressive, softer durometer in the tread for increased traction in slippery conditions. Like most SIDI small parts, the SRS tread panels and screws are available as spare parts. The SRS sole on the Spider models features a more generously sized polyurethane anti-slip insert beneath the instep, which helps during less-than-perfect cyclocross remounts, making it ideal for cyclocross racers. For 2013, the Spider SRS sole is produced in a firmer durometer than previous years to increase tread life for cyclecross racers and MTBers in “push” situations.Available on:• Spider SRS Lorica• Spider SRS Lorica/Mesh

FIT PERFECT FIT

Fitting Sidi Shoes Shoe fitting is best conducted at the end of the day, as feet swell throughout the day.• Length and width of feet should be measured,

while standing, and customers should be open-minded about the results. Measure both feet—most people have one foot larger than the other—and size for the larger-size foot.

• Customers switching to SIDI, or from SIDIs more than 5 years old, may not wear the size they think (this is especially true for women’s shoes).

• All SIDIs, with the exception of winter shoes, are built on the same last, but different models may not fit identically due to differences in patterns and materials (Wire has a narrower, lower-volume fit than Genius 6.6, for example)—so bear this in mind when switching between different SIDI models.

• In many instances, customers with wider feet may be using regular-width shoes that are too long in order to get a wide-enough shoe. Switching to a Mega model in the correct length will improve fit and performance dramatically.

• Customers should be fitted wearing the same type of socks they ride in, and any orthotics they typically employ.

• Have customers spend enough time in the shoes for the Lorica to warm up and conform to their feet (see Lorica, page 21).

• Properly center the Soft Instep Closure System over the instep, and adjust the heel retention device, on those shoes so equipped.

• It’s a good idea to try a half size up and down, for comparison. If caught between sizes, it helps to remind customers that feet typically swell while riding.

American vs European Sizing

SIDI SHOE SIZING: STANDARD, MEGA AND NARROW• Standard-size SIDIs are C to E width.• Mega lasts are EE to EEE width*, 4 mm wider across the ball of the foot—with

more volume, a high instep and wider heel cup.• Narrow models are considered B to C width.* Some cyclists, who may not have exceptionally wide feet but use high-volume orthotics and/or have very high insteps, will be more comfortable in a Mega shoe.

SIDI HALF SIZESSIDI shoes employ a very conforming “pro fit,” for optimized comfort and pedaling efficiency.Full sizes step up 6 mm (.23 inches) in length, which is a big jump. SIDI’s commitment to the availability of half sizes, built on lasts 3 mm longer and with proportionate volume, is a tremendous sizing advantage that helps achieve that perfect pro fit.

WOMEN’S SIZINGSIDI builds its women’s shoes on an anatomically correct woman-specific last:• Tapered last mimics a woman’s more dramatically tapered foot shape*.• Proportionately wider forefoot, but with lower volume.• Narrower heel.* Women with consistently wide or narrow feet, from the heel to the forefoot—

may experience better fit in SIDI Men’s or Narrow widths.

HIGH INSTEPS, LOW ARCHES AND SIDI’S SOFT INSTEP CLOSURE SYSTEMSIDI’s Soft Instep Closure System provides extra sizing latitude, accommodating high insteps and low arches.The crank arm-side anchor point of SIDI’s Soft Instep Closure System should be adjusted to center the EVA pad over the instep. Pull the Soft Instep Closure System slightly away from the shoe to disengage the ratchet teeth on the anchor’s underside while repositioning the pad (you may need to firmly tug back and forth, or wiggle it side to side, while pushing firmly). Trim any excess strap extending towards the crank arm side of the shoe.

In rare cases, people with larger feet or very high insteps (usually larger than a size-50 Mega) may need the High Instep Adapter strap extender.

WHAT SIZE ARE MY CURRENT SIDI SHOES?Every SIDI shoe (except triathlon models) from 2002 onward is stamped with its size and last type (Mega, Narrow or Women’s), usually on the tongue. For example, a size 40.5 Woman’s model would be marked “40.5 W,” the W indicating Women’s model (older shoes may use an L, for Ladies). An M indicates Mega, an S (which stands for “slim”) indicates Narrow.

Size marking on the sole does not properly identify size, as it only indicates the nearest whole size and does not identify the last used (a sole marked “42,” for instance, could be a straight size 42, a 42.5 women’s, 42 or 42.5 Mega or Narrow).
