XC C4 MTB Shoes EKOI Racing White
THE HIGH-PERFORMANCE MTB & GRAVEL SHOE
Developed in collaboration with Julien Absalon, the XC C4 combines the stiffness of a 100% carbon sole with even support, with no pressure points.
It meets the demands of off-road riding whether you ride Cross Country, Gravel, or Ultra.
SOLE:
• Rigid full carbon outsole.
• Standard SPD-type MTB clipless pedal fittings.
• Graduations = easier cleat positioning.
• Perforated insole = moisture wicking.
• Internal elastic for stable tongue positioning and optimal foot entry into the shoe ("slipper" side).
UPPER:
• Mesh = regulated foot temperature.
• Non-stretch material = maximized power on the pull stroke.
• Wraparound asymmetric construction = optimal support.
• High-loop placement = helps avoid exposure and wear.
• Padded tongue = increased comfort.
• Textile cable guides = zero pressure points.
• Textured toe guards = front-of-foot protection
HEEL:
• Reinforced shock-resistant heel + durability
• Non-slip silicone print on the heel.
• Weight: 335 g (size 42).
• 8 sizes: 39-46.

Fabio P. 07/12/2024 Age: 35-44 Level: Expert Convenient: MTB, Road, Running, TriathlonFantastic shoe
My very first ride on this shoe was 6 hours on a road bike, and it was extremely comfortable. My foot measures 27.8cm, I went with a 45, and it is a bit on the large side (as expected based on sizing chart) . I did not want to risk a tight fit because returning it was not an option. 44 would probably work as well, but I'm happy with the 45, especially since it's a narrow shoe and I prefer room in the toe box. I'm coming from a Recon S-Works lace (also 45, which I really enjoy), and I highly recommend the XC C4. To top it off, the shoe looks amazing. Can't comment on durability, but for now 5 stars.

Ariniello A. 07/12/2024 Age: 25-34 Level: Expert Convenient: TriathlonPretty good overall, but pinched in one spot
Comfortable for the most part, the fastening works very smoothly, light and stiff, but the edges of the shoe where it meets your ankle are very stiff. On one of my feet, that stuff edge rubbed on the small bone below the ankle bone. Maybe my feet are just oddly shaped - maybe if yours are normal these shoes will be perfect!

Mark Q. 05/12/2024 Age: 45-54 Level: Advanced Convenient: MTBXc racing shoe.
I used them once and will use them a few more times before I give final input. First impression was they look good, are light weight, and are super stiff. A bit difficult to put on and not very comfortable, but I assume that improves as they wear in a bit. My only real concern is that the boa placement on the top caused a lot of numbness in my feet. If this continues I will return them.
