comfortable, super cute and excellent quality , I love the material, the beauty of the designs, and I already want them in all the colors.
I ride recreationally ~20 miles at a time on a gravel cycle, mix of roads, as well as commuting to work ~12mi round trip. I’m a small build ~ 5’4 120#. I have narrow feet and a high arch; I replaced the original foot bed insert with a custom insert. To me these shoes seems super stiff, adding a lot of efficiency and comfort. They seem to lock my foot in without being too hot. Even with clips I can walk a little way in them as needed. The sizing seems to be standard US men’s sizing. I normally wear a US Men’s 7 or EU 40 in everyday shoes; 7.5/8 or 41 in running shoes. The 7 in these fit great
They are great for indoor cycling, but they are MENS SIZES and RUN BIG. Ladies definitely size down a full size and maybe even 1 1/2 sizes down. They also have a heel slip when walking, even in my proper size, but they’re great on the bike. They are hard and take about a month to break in. I’ve bought several pairs, but the sizing was challenging at first. I have wide feet, they were not too narrow.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It looks really good, comfortable for walking, but please pick the terrain nicely! Maybe the velour part is a bit tricky to keep clean.
Great casual shoe for bike commuting. Stiff enough for added power transfer but flexible enough to walk in. Looks great too
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are stiff enough to feel great riding and the cleat is actually recessed enough that you can walk in them without everyone hearing you coming. I agree with what others have said about this not being the shoe for a ton of walking because there is really limited flex, but if you’re looking for something you can feel good about when going out or working in a casual office, these are a great choice. I do wish they had some kind of textured heel because they’re a little more prone to slipping there than I like in a cycling shoe. Overall I’m really happy with them.
The color is perfect! The material makes it look so elegant and elevated. I’m definitely buying this in other colors.
Love the venting, the lines to help with clip installation, plus they are super stylish.
A bit heavy than I wanted But good quality and colour is great
I do like the look of them. Have only used them once so far but found they were very loose around my foot. I need to aggressively tie the laces and try them again. They do look nice though I'm just not used to this style of cleat, but that's what the gym use. So I've got this with the hope of improving the spin class experience . I could tell they weren't tight enough because I was able to slip my foot out, and when I was really putting the power down I could feel them slapping up and down
