Awesome Shoe!!!
By WangDanger
I own 3 pair of PI shoes, x-road, enduro 2 and these. Out of all 3, these are definitely my favorite. I don't even want to wear the others anymore and they are still in excellent condition. I think it has to do with the new mid-sole on the shoe. Instead of the plastic nylon mid-sole like on the older models, this sole is really more like a tennis shoe all the way through. So now when I need to ride unclipped on my Time Atac Alums, I can because the mid-sole gives me grip now.Another positive thing about this shoe is that it seems a lot more stiff than the older PI shoes. With thee stiffer sole and nylon band that keeps your heal down, I get a lot more power out of these shoes than I do with my other two.The only thing I had trouble with was the tread thickness is really aggressive around cleat area. The cleat sits really recessed and makes it hard to unclip. I put CB shields under my cleats and it has help a lot...so an easy fix if you run into this.Overall, the shoes are great and they seem true to size. I normally wear a 10-10.5 in US and I ordered a 45, and they fit perfect. When off the bike, these feel just like regular shoes and have no issues with the cleat clacking on the ground, even with the CB Shields in.

Good shoe, watch sizing
By C. E. Lyon
Shoe is very comfortable until I attack standing up, then my toes jam into the front. All of my cycle shoes are size 47 and in European sizing I wear a 47 so, silly me, I ordered a 47, got a shoe with a "47" label in it but it actually fits like a 46. The fit was close enough that I can tell this will be an awesome shoe, extremely stiff all down the sole, just the right amount of flex in the toe, and excellent support and retention inside. I am now just in the middle of sending the 47's back and waiting for my 48's. Kind of a bummer having to wait again.

By Brigette Keeney
I dreaded going clipless- walking around like a penguin after getting off my bike. Not so with these beautiful shoes- they're as comfy to walk in as they are to ride. I've worn them for 12 hours and was more comfortable than my boots or shoes. There is one, and only one catch with these shoes: they are probably not as stiff as more direct cycling shoes you're used to. Great product - I wear a 10.5 and 45s were perfect.
