Northwave Rebel 3 MTB Shoes

With a BioMap unibody upper and Carbon XC 12 Sole unit, the Northwave Rebel 3 MTB Shoes deliver uncompromising comfort and rapid acceleration across any mountain bike trail. The dual dial system also makes adjustment incredibly quick and easy.

The Rebel 3 MTB Shoes are a high-performance shoe for all you lovers of riding fast off-road, be it XC loops, cyclocross races or gravel challenges. Featuring Northwave’s BioMap unibody construction upper, the Rebel 3s wrap your foot perfectly, making you as one with your bike. Push on the pedals and the shoe holds your foot in the ideal position for optimal efficiency and all-day comfort.

Not only comfortable, but the upper is also tough. TPU Thermo welded reinforcements feature across the whole upper, fending off bumps, abrasions and scratches that are an inevitable part of mountain biking. The smooth unibody construction also reduces areas that could chafe and cause discomfort while also giving a striking race-ready look. Copious ventilation holes also prevent your feet from overheating. 

Carbon XC 12 Sole

Getting the power down on a lung-bursting climb or kicking up the dirt on a technical downhill, with a full carbon insert across the pedal/cleat contact area, the Carbon XC 12 Sole gives you instant power transfer for speedy progress and maximum efficiency across any terrain. Meanwhile, the extra flex in the medial zone takes out the buzz from the trail, adding comfort for your longer off-road rides. 

The tread is kept to a minimum, reducing weight, but the TPU inserts are strategically placed to give optimal traction when you need it most – perfect for muddy trails and wet cyclocross races. The tough TPU inserts are also highly durable, ensuring grip is retained over the long haul. 

Dual SLW 3 Closure System

The SLW3, developed by X-Dial, builds and improves upon the previous iterations, making the fit and adjustment of your shoes quicker and easier than ever. It gives micrometric adjustment both to increase foothold and to release pressure. Twist to tighten. Press the side button to release pressure incrementally. All easily done on the go. A single button pull also makes it easy to release the laces at the end of your ride too. Quick. Simple, Durable. Precise. A no-fuss and comfortable fit every time.
