Shoes - Advise Me?

El Capitano · May 2007

XC, SPD, Budget œ100.

Don't bother mentioning Specialized Body Geometry ones as they don't fit my feet comfortably (I'm currently using a pair).

I'm looking for something I can ride in all day (and night).

Shimano do quite a lot that look fairly normal if you want to wear them somewhere after a ride, But then I'm guessing your just gonna nud 'em up so no need to worrie too much about looks?

I personaly think the 661's look like good shoes, but haven't tried any yet.

I did look for some titanium studs, but couldn't find anything.

The thermo shoes are nearer the 300 squid range.

Dunno about riding in all day but im in love with diadora shoes. i have a set of the new addistar shoes aswell and they are really good to.

What price do you put on your feet though ? There the last pair you'll ever get.

MTB:
Specialized Comp MTB Shoe (the original one from circa 1998) not the new ones which now don't fit nicely.

Gotta be diadora cap! You know it.......

I currently have these and they fit me more or less perfectly, though they may be alittle narrow for some people.

Where as these have been recommended to me a fair few times and are apparently really comfy.

Was about to say they are narrow shoes but note that they now do wide versions which is a good idea. I had trouble finding some to fit my fat toes and ended up with a pair of specialised BG ones which are ok but slightly loose over the top of my foot and im not convinced that my knee's like the way they bend them out to apparently improve your position/comfort

I had thought of having the cleats bolted straight into the bottom of my foot, to save weight. [:D]

Seriously, spd racing shoes look garbage. Mine are better and you know it.
