Giro making shoes?

It looks like Giro the helmet maker is now making some cool shoes:

I likw several of those. Cool colors.

Are they meant for cycling? It doesn't look as if any of them are SPD-compatible, unless I'm missing something.

I looked at the pdf catalog. Though it shows cycling pix, there's no mention of cleats and the pictures of soles don't appear to have a removable section. So I would say no.

I'm with you. Looks like they are for flat pedals. Look more like skateboarding shoes to me...

Still, cool shoes to wear if you're driving somewhere to go riding.

this is not Giro, the american helmet company. different company.

Are you sure? It sure looks like the same Giro logo. If it isn't them, I would think that Giro wouldn't let them use the logo. I think it is Giro or at least they are affiliated with them. Check out this link

It is the same Giro. Giro is having a St. Louis company manufacture them. It is being marketed to bike shops.

I like the Kouro http://www.giroshoesonline.com/showStyle.asp?idStyle=8
