Does anyone have experience of the fit of these shoes?
I ordered 47s, and whilst they were comfy, and roomy at the toe, the heel seemed to slip a lot when i walked. Wasnt sure whether this would happen on the bike, but didnt want to attach cleats to try in case i had to send them back. I ordered a pair of 46s to see if they were better. They are definately too small as my toes almost touch the end. However, the heel still slips as i walk. Though not quite as much as the 47s.
Before i send both pairs back and try another make, can anyone who has these shoes tell me whether they experience the 'heel slip' and dont find it an issue on the bike. Other than the heel issue they feel really comfy.
cheers

Yes i have a pair (size 45 which is larger than spech 45!) A really good fit for wider feet, but yes when you walk it does feel that the heel slips - only on my right foot which is fraction shorter than my left. However not an issue while riding, even when I lift my foot.0
