Giant, the world leader in cycling technology, introduced an all-new, wide-ranging collection of performance shoes aimed at road, gravel, XC and trail riders. The Surge road series, Charge XC/gravel series, and Shuttle trail series have all been completely updated with new designs, technologies and features.
Every new model across these three ranges achieves greater efficiency, comfort and control by using advanced materials, biomechanical design, and real-world testing.
Developed using science-based ergonomic shaping and extensive rider feedback, the Surge, Charge and Shuttle series all feature wider fit platforms, tunable arch support systems and precision closure technologies to improve stability, reduce pressure, and optimize power transfer across a wide range of riding conditions.
“Surge, Charge and Shuttle represent a new approach for the Giant shoe program, built around advanced ergonomic design and data-driven fit,” said Joshua Rebol, Giant global category manager for rider gear. “From wider platforms and tunable arch support to precision closure systems, every detail is engineered to improve comfort, stability and efficiency for better performance on every ride.”
SURGE: ROAD EFFICIENCY REFINED
Designed for riders seeking maximum power transfer and precision on the road, the Surge collection delivers a race-tuned balance of stiffness, stability and long-ride comfort.
A science-driven ergonomic platform—featuring a wider base plate, roomy toe box and tunable arch support—stabilizes the foot under load to promote consistent pedaling efficiency. Advanced BOA® closure systems provide micro-adjustable, evenly distributed retention, while lightweight, breathable uppers maintain comfort during high-intensity efforts.
Purpose-engineered carbon and composite outsoles are tuned for road performance, delivering efficient power transfer and responsive feel for everything from race-day efforts to sustained training miles.
CHARGE: XC AND GRAVEL VERSATILITY
Made for versatile performance across gravel roads, XC terrain and mixed conditions, the Charge collection combines efficient pedaling performance with traction and walkability.
An ergonomic fit platform with integrated arch support and a wider base stabilizes the foot and maintains alignment over long distances. BOA® closure systems enable fast, precise adjustment, adapting to changing terrain and ride intensity.
Carbon and composite outsole designs balance stiffness with engineered flex, while exclusive rubber lug patterns provide confident traction and durability for off-the-bike sections. The result is a versatile system built for hard, technical riding, long adventures and varied terrain.
SHUTTLE: TRAIL RIDING COMFORT & CONTROL
Engineered for modern trail and gravity riding, the Shuttle collection prioritizes grip, durability and pedal control in demanding conditions.
Vibram® rubber outsoles deliver dependable traction across wet roots, loose rock and technical terrain, while trail-tuned nylon base plates balance pedaling support with responsive flex for precise bike handling.
A wide, supportive platform with a roomy toe box and tunable arch support allows riders to fine-tune fit and stability. Multiple configurations—including BOA® and lace closures in clip or flat pedal options—gives riders the flexibility to match their setup to their riding style.
Durable, breathable and quick-drying uppers are built to withstand aggressive riding and changing conditions, ensuring long-lasting performance on and off the bike.
UNIFIED DESIGN
Across all three collections, Giant applies a consistent approach centered on rider ergonomics and real-world performance. Wider platforms, refined fit shaping and integrated support systems work together to enhance comfort, reduce fatigue and improve efficiency.
By combining advanced closure systems, discipline-specific outsole construction, and data-driven design, Surge, Charge and Shuttle deliver complete footwear solutions for every type of rider.
