The new Nimbl Urano arrive as the lightest gravel shoes of the moment

The exclusive Italian brand Nimbl has just presented the first off-road model in its catalog. But far from describing it as a versatile shoe, it has made it clear that its design is specific for gravel. The selected high-quality materials, Italian craftsmanship, excellence in its process, and its price of 549€ make it clear that the Nimbl Urano are very exclusive shoes.

Nimbl Urano, shoes as specific as they are exclusive for gravel

Like the rest of Nimbl's models, the Urano is handmade in Italy and its materials, low weight (508g per shoe in size 43), and price make it clear that it is footwear intended for those who want the best.

Its weight alone may position it as the lightest Off-Road model on the market with around 100g less than any top-of-the-line mountain bike model.

And it achieves this, in part, with the monocoque carbon sole that Nimbl uses in its road shoes, to which they have added 2mm TPU studs strategically placed so that the shoes allow walking if necessary. In that sense, the brand is clear: "these shoes are intended for riding, not for walking long distances."

On the upper part, the Nimbl Urano are covered with resistant and easy-to-clean microfiber. And they are adjusted with two robust BOA Li2 precision dials.

If everything that the Nimbl Urano offer has convinced you and their price of 550€ is not a problem for you, you still need to know that there will only be 300 pairs available in this first edition so they may sell out quickly.

The Nimbl Urano are available from size 41 to 46 and can be purchased directly on the brand's website.
