Have you ever heard of Giro? This pillar of American cycling equipment. In any case, we will quickly revisit its history. It was 1985 in California when Jim Gentes, a local industrialist, decided to embark on designing innovative sports protection. Like many stories, there is a trigger element, and for Giro, it was a helmet. Pre-ordered for $100,000 during its first public presentation, the story of Giro was launched. Subsequently, the brand diversified by offering various equipment, all more high-performing than the last. In 2010, it was the year of the launch of the first Giro Cycling Shoes.
