Closest Replacement for Mavic Avenir Shoes?

I've had a pair of Mavic Avenir shoes for about 10 years. They fit me really well but they've finally given up and are beyond repair.
I bought a pair of MAVIC Cosmic Elite SL hoping the fit would be the same or very similar but the fir is a lot different, they are not very comfortable.

Do any of the existing Mavic shoe range (or other brands) have a very similar fit to the Avenir?

    Mavic have pulled out of clothes and shoes so it's a case of sourcing stuff while you can. They renamed the range, so you are probably looking for the Ksyrium shoes, which I think we're either three velcro straps or two straps with the top ratchet strap. I think the Cosmic range used the Boa type fasteners. I thought they were all the same shape but maybe the Cosmic are slimmer and more racy?

    I was trying to replace a pair of mine recently and settled on some Fizik, but even they have different fit for the same size across their range.
