This pair of vintage Shimano SH-M series mountain bike shoes (EU 42 / US Men's 9 / US Women's 11) is in Excellent Used Condition (EUC), featuring a durable navy blue and grey synthetic upper, a protective brown faux-leather heel cup, a minute green alignment strip, a micro-adjust ankle ratchet, and two offset Velcro straps. Unlike modern, plastic-heavy footwear that relies on fragile dial wires, this classic era of Shimano gear is highly desirable for its "bulletproof" stitched construction and deep, grippy rubber outsole blocks that provide superior traction when walking off-bike. The shoes are structurally sound, fully functional, and clean, though the inner sizing ink has faded down to the original factory gold material stamps over time. Please note that cleats are not included and must be purchased separately to match your specific bike pedals; because the soles feature a universal recessed 2-bolt track system, you simply need to bolt on a standard set of 2-bolt cleats (such as Shimano SPD or Crankbrothers) to make them fully operational.
