The Specialized Recon 3.0 MTB Shoe is built for riders who refuse to compromise between race-day performance and real-world versatility. Whether you’re chasing KOMs, pushing for podium spots, or just want the most efficient mountain bike shoe you can find, the Recon 3.0 delivers scientifically proven Body Geometry benefits in a package that’s lighter, more comfortable, and more capable than ever before.

The innovative STRIDE technology is what sets this shoe apart, featuring a flexible toe area that moves naturally when you’re walking or hiking but maintains maximum stiffness through the cleat area for efficient power transfer on the bike. The dual BOA Li2 dial system provides precise, on-the-fly adjustments in multiple directions, while the carbon plate keeps weight low and stiffness high with a 10.0 rating for serious performance.

The fully-welded upper eliminates pressure points and hot spots, making these shoes as comfortable for long trail adventures as they are efficient for racing. SlipNot rubber with removable toe studs gives you confident traction on everything from wet rocks to loose dirt, while the proven Body Geometry design optimizes your biomechanics for better power transfer and reduced injury risk. At just 345g per shoe, the Recon 3.0 brings S-Works level technology to a more accessible price point.
