Nike Cycling Shoes Endorsed By The Cycling King

With an endorsement from cycling king Lance Armstrong, it seems Nike can do cyclists no wrong.

Nike is synonymous with sports. It doesn't matter whether you are a basketball player, a golfer or anything in between, their products find appeal. It isn't any different with Nike cycling shoes. Whether you handle a road or mountain bike, Nike has a shoe for all your needs. Although there are other brands available to the everyday cyclist such as Sidi and Carnac, only Nike is used by Lance Armstrong. That's a narrow trail to follow.

One of Nike's most beloved biking shoes has got to be the poggio II. It is the lightest shoe for cycling made by the company and comes with three adjustable velcro straps. Being carbon-soled, these shoes provide the stiffness needed by any cyclist. Surrounded in mesh, they provide maximum breath ability for your foot. Retailing for around $200, they provide cyclists with maximum comfort and efficiency when cycling.

As popular as Nike is, it isn't wise for cyclists to buy their shoes based solely on endorsements and advertisements. Obviously personal preference has to come into play at some point. Just because Lance Armstrong loves a product, doesn't mean you will. You might, but it's not a guarantee. Therefore, it is always best to try a wide variety of shoes before making your choice. Do your research and read reviews before heading to the store. Ask other cyclists what they enjoy using and try to test out different brands if at all possible. Go shoe shopping with an open mind and give your shoes the same rigorous testing you give to all your cycling apparel regardless of its name brand.
