Cycling Style, Part I

May 30th, 2012 • BY

These ruby slippers were made for pedaling. Really.

A performance-oriented, style-centric cycling heel crafted of lush leather? Hmmm. We didn’t believe it either, until we strapped ’em on and hopped on the cruiser for a spin ’round town.

The Merrell Women’s Evera MJ ($110) really does deliver serious power to the pedal. Forget this shoe’s demure good looks; it’s the inside that counts when it comes to performance. A stability shank encourages efficient pedal pushing power and Merrell’s CycleTread™ Technology delivers rigid mid-foot pedal power—and “flexible forefoot hiking performance,” according to Merrell, just in case you’d like to hoof it up the trail after your ride. Well, only if you don’t mind scuffing your luxurious ruby red leather and Lycra® upper.

Truly, the Evera MJ is made for walking just as much as it is for putting the sticky Evera sole to the pedal. Supremely comfortable, this shoe literally puts, for lack of a better term, a spring in your step. A compression-molded footframe offers stability and the Evera’s pigskin-covered memory foam footbed is super comfy. Comfort padding is strategically placed to eliminate rubbing and blisters—we wore these right out of the box to the bike and experienced no discomfort. The Evera MJ also happens to be treated with Aegis® antimicrobial solution so your world will be odor-free, even after a sweat-inducing spin to work.

BONUS: These fab kicks also sport reflective detailing for those evening rides.
