For casual cyclists, the arrival of the rainy season heralds a period of hibernation for bicycles that are promptly secured in basements, balconies and storage rooms, but those who are far too stubborn to allow torrential downpours, treacherous puddles and soaked city streets to interfere with their cycling can count on the DZR H20 shoes to keep their feet dry.
The DZR H20 shoes are crafted from full-grain sheepskin leather, which doesn't just provide a strong and confident look but also ensures optimum sturdiness, comfort and dryness while pedaling in wet weather. The sandwiching of waterproof membrane between two layers of moisture-wicking mesh ensures that one's feet remain absolutely dry whether roaring through puddles on side streets or getting splashed by rude motorists.
However, these shoes are for the demands of cycling rather than for just strolling around, which is why they come with an array of thoughtful design features including a geometric tread outsole that's perfectly compatible with bike pedals and a reflective heel badge that ensures that wearers safely stand out in gloomy wintry environs.
DZR also understands that cyclists who drop $179 on leather cycling shoes will want to use them season after season, which is why these shoes come with a complimentary tin of mink oil that can be used to keep the shoes shiny and gorgeously supple, prompting envy from wet-toed cyclists for years to come.
