A shoe designed specifically for public safety cyclists.

The Diadora Bike Patrol Police Shoe was specifically designed for Law Enforcement cyclists. These all-black, leather and synthetic cycling shoes are durable and comfortable, yet still have that professional, uniformed look. The shoe's 5/8 height provides extra ankle support and the lace closure adjusts to give a snug fit to almost any shape foot. Added features include a retaining tab with velcro to keep the laces out of the chain ring; a padded and relieved Achilles heel collar that won't slip or rub; and an internal heel reinforcement to help stabilize the heel. The black rubber outsole has an internal Diapen stiffener that allows for better control on the pedal yet has plenty of flexibility should you need to dismount and run. The shoes may be used with platform pedals or mounted with SPD-type cleats. Diadora has come up with a real winner with these shoes and IPMBA has been able to work out an awesome deal for you! The regular retail price is $90.00, but the IPMBA Product Purchase Price is only $80.00 plus shipping.
