Now if these could be offered as Mountain Bike shoes, they would be sweet!

Agree, those are pretty cool looking.
They look like old school cross country ski boots.

They look like hiking boots. Do the come in black? I do love some simple leather aesthetic.

its the Giro Empire.
It's $275 and uses a "radical new closure system" which we used to call shoelaces back in the day.

The brown you are looking at is a show prototype I think, I have only seen news of silver with neon green, white and glossy black appearing in stores this coming season.

They showed a lot of colors at Interbike. Bikerumor shows the 10 - 12 colorways they showed in Vegas. Supposedly a web vote is coming to decide color 3. Vote for BROWN!
From velonews:
The Empire will come in black and silver/gray, as well as a third color to be chosen on Giro's Facebook page.
neon green with neon orange radical closure system will be cool
