Shimano's RP2 is an affordable performance women's road shoe that combines quality and comfort. The high-density yet supple synthetic leather is lighter, stronger and more durable than natural leathers. It also improves the fit and breathability. The nylon outsole is lighweight and the midsole was reinforced with glass fiber which allows great power transfer. The outsole has a medium stiffness of 6 for more comfort and ease of use when walking.

The RP2 integrated Shimano Dynalast technology that helps reduce the braking loss thanks to the optimized toe-section that provides a smoother, more energy-efficient upstroke. It features 3 durable velcro straps spread tightening force across the top of the foot. The off-set Strap relieves pressure points. The women's specific design provides natural and comfortable fit.
