Sidi refined all of its cycling shoe technology and condensed it into the Men's Level Carbon Shoes. With an adjustable fit that lets you dial in the perfect shape for your foot, the Level Carbons are durable, stiff, and high performing lightweight shoes you can afford without a sponsor. Sidi engineers used their proven ratcheting buckle to keep the Level Carbons in place on your feet.
The ratchets micro-adjustability lets you change the strap pressure to find your best fit. Ready to race or ride a century, the Millennium 4 Carbon Composite outsoles are nylon matrix shot through with carbon fiber that resists warping from humidity, heat, and age. All the fastening hardware on the shoes is replaceable, so a lost buckle in a crash won't mean a new pair of shoes.
The Level Carbons use synthetic material for water-repellant, quick-drying, and highly breathable uppers that are abrasion and mildew resistant. These shoes are designed to stay the same shape over time resisting the undesirable stretching and warping you get with lesser quality shoes.

Technology
- Politex Material
-
The “politex” material is constructed of several overlapping layers with different physical-mechanical properties, the compacted PVC is then coupled to two fabrics (knitted fabric felt) that is then is film dyed for long-lasting color retention. “Politex” offers strong resistance to ripping, laceration, stretching and fading. “Politex” is made in strict compliance with European regulations and is a totally “green” product.
- Caliper Buckle
- The micrometric closure called “CALIPER BUCKLE” is adjustable by lifting the central buckle. In order to completely open, lift together both side buckles, or push the center button to slightly loosen one tooth at the time. The system is also adjustable during a race.
- Sidi Heal
- The reinforced heel keeps the foot in an optimal position and avoids the shoe being deformed by extreme performance or prolonged pressure.
- Walkability
- For walkability, Sidi cycling shoes include a replaceable polyurethane heel pad.
- Millennium 4 Carbon Composite
- The MILLENNIUM 4 CARBON COMPOSITE SOLE features injected carbon fiber in a matrix of Nylon, providing more rigidity than a standard nylon sole. The MILLENNIUM 4 CARBON COMPOSITE SOLE is also more durable, completely non water-absorbent and mechanically stable, meaning it’s less susceptible to changes in stiffness resulting from aging, prolonged usage, and changes in temperature or humidity. An anti-slip toe insert and replaceable polyurethane heel pad are incorporated into the MILLENNIUM 4 CARBON COMPOSITE SOLE, for walkability. The MILLENNIUM 4 CARBON COMPOSITE SOLE uses a standard 3-hole drilling pattern for compatibility with the best pedal systems available, and includes a printed 10 mm lateral and fore/aft cleat alignment scale on the sole as well as the Look Memory Eyelet for easy cleat alignment and replacement.
