Republic Road Cycling Shoes

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"This is my go-to for commuting and gravel rides where I want a shoe that performs on the bike but still looks normal when I stop at a shop or head into work. The outsole has great stiffness, and I never slip walking thanks to the grippy pads."

Designed for cyclists who demand performance without compromising everyday style, the Republic Road Cycling Shoe offers a street-inspired silhouette with real on-bike capability. The upper blends breathable canvas with a minimalist lace design that wears comfortably on the bike and transitions smoothly to off-the-bike life.

Underneath, a reinforced nylon outsole delivers the stiffness needed for efficient pedaling, while integrated high-traction rubber pads ensure sure footing when dismounting on gravel, pavement, or hardpack. Perfectly compatible with 2-bolt SPD cleats, the Republic balances walkability and ride efficiency—ideal for urban rides, multi-surface touring, or relaxed training sessions.

Whether rolling through city streets or jumping onto light gravel loops, the Republic Shoe delivers the versatility and comfort we need, all without sacrificing clean, understated aesthetics.
