About Giro Latch Womens Shoes
Created to give you the best connection, the Women's Latch mountain bike shoe is a benchmark in flat-pedal performance, especially when the trail gets fast and rowdy.
For the Women's Latch mountain bike shoe, Giro started with a new fit that brings the foot closer to the pedal and flattens the sole profile, optimizing the contact patch between sole and pedal. Giro then collaborated with a team of rubber engineers to formulate Tack Rubber, a highly elastic compound that matches grip with durability in their new Gamma tread design. And at the heart of the shoe is a revelation in performance called Mute Foam, a midsole foam that's specially engineered with a slow-rebound action that cuts chatter and vibration to help keep you connected to the pedal, regardless of ruts, roots, and rocks. The unique combination of fit, a fast-drying microfiber upper, the grip of Tack Rubber, and the damping of Mute Foam makes Latch a new benchmark in flat-pedal performance.

Laced Closure: In addition to infinite adjustability and the ability to conform to each zone of the foot, laces offer easy replacement and customization, a more natural feel across the foot and reliability in even the most adverse conditions. Giro's tubular woven laces are designed to be highly durable, light and to hold a knot securely without slipping.
Mute Foam: Mute Foam is a proprietary nanofoam with slow rebound characteristics that help to damp chatter, bumps, and vibration. When formed into a shoe's midsole, it acts like suspension to help keep feet comfortably planted on the pedals.
