Comments about Pearl Izumi X-Alp Seek V Bike Shoes - Women's:
At the suggestion of my Spin instructor I purchased this product. The laces -vs- the solid velcro closures provide better ventilation in an indoor environment. The soles are a bit stiff for walking so I'll only use these primarily for spinning. I believe the quality shoe will last through many classes.

Comments about Pearl Izumi X-Alp Seek V Bike Shoes - Women's:
Easy to use. Cleats are just a bit to thick for walking around town. I was specificaly told this shoe was good for that as I live in an area where bike trails go thru the local town and you can get off and walk around, but the cleats are pretty loud. Now I've never had biking shoes before so this may just be normal. The shoes are very comfortable and look great! Easy to clip in and out!

Comments about Pearl Izumi X-Alp Seek V Bike Shoes - Women's:
I bought these shoes as they seemed like they wouldbe suited for my needs. I needed biking shoes with hard soles, but that I could also walk in when I was off my bike. I do not use clipless pedals yet, but I have these now for when I am ready to make that change. I wore these the entire trek from PGH to DC and they felt great the entire time. I sometimes wished that they were velcro straps, but the tongue of the shoe has this handy little flap on it where you shove the laces once they are tied so that they stay out of the way. Nice feature! Not to mention these are super cute!

Comments about Pearl Izumi X-Alp Seek V Bike Shoes - Women's:
I really love these shoes. They are super comfortable, easy to walk in and stylish to boot. I had a an older version of the same shoe for over 5 years but they finally wore out so I needed a new pair. Now I'm looking forward to many miles with the new ones.

Comments about Pearl Izumi X-Alp Seek V Bike Shoes - Women's:
I planned to wear this shoe on randonneur rides, 200km and up. It is well ventilated, but the sole plate is much too short and soft for rides of these distances. I can't stand on the pedals, and my forefoot gets really sore.

Comments about Pearl Izumi X-Alp Seek V Bike Shoes - Women's:
I was looking for a biking shoe that was not such a tight fit as others I tried, so I can comfortably take short hikes from the bike. This shoe meets that criteria. For casual biking this shoe is great. For persons into agressive up and down hills, this might not be the best option.

Comments about Pearl Izumi X-Alp Seek V Bike Shoes - Women's:
I got these shoes for my wife as her first set of bike shoes. They are good mix of fairly stif soles and still walk like normal shoes. She does not clip in yet but with the full tread bottoms she can use them with flat peadles and has improve your times and cofort form eliminating the felx in your shoes. We should be adding spd cleats to these here shortly and get her using clippless peadles.

Comments about Pearl Izumi X-Alp Seek V Bike Shoes - Women's:
These are my first pair of bike shoes. Clipless pedals are something to get used to but I found these shoes to be comfortable and easy to wear while riding and walking. Depending on how you place your clips on the bottom of your shoe, you don't really feel the clip while walking around.
