Ride Concepts men”s ACCOMPLICE off shoes (white)

The Accomplice has your back wherever your ride takes you. They were made with comfort and versatility in mind. A model designed for trail use. The sole stiffness is not so much intended for World Enduro Series tracks, but rather for everyday trails and the odd bike park. In short, for riders looking for comfortable shoes with lifestyle elements.

The construction of the Accomplice model features an original integrated tongue that turns the shoe into a kind of sock that you slip into. The tongue flows seamlessly around the ankle into the heel and vice versa. This ensures a really high level of comfort and complete elimination of dirt getting inside.

Unlike its competitors in this price range, the Accomplice uses welded construction rather than stitching the sole to the upper. The Accomplice is still based on the higher-end enduro models, which consist of three layers rather than two: sole, midsole with EVA foam, and upper. All with a minimum of seams and a predominance of welding for durability and integrity.

Tightening with anti-slip laces. The tongue has a loop on it for stowing the laces so that they do not move around freely and cannot come into contact with the bike or catch on an obstacle.

RCs top models use D3O protection in the insole, which no other manufacturer has. But the Accomplice does not come up short either. The insole has EVA foam panels in the heel and footstrike area. They protect against impacts or an under-jumped double and the resulting heel stomp. Thanks to the EVA foam, the foot is less tired and less prone to bruising.

Max Grip sole offers the perfect balance between grip and durability. The grippiest sole compound, designed for flat pedals. RC could have made a sole that sticks literally like glue, but would it last long? Max Grip is the result of development with Rubber Kinetics (Good Year). Perfect grip with every platform on the market. The stiffness is just right to transfer power to the pedal.
