Review by AnonymousReviewed 8/15/2023by AnonymousMontanaGood Gravel ShoeIt's not the stiffest shoe, but it's a comfortable all day shoe for long gravel rides. The BOA system snugs the shoe down nicely. There is a fair bit of arch in this shoe. It's a good value shoe.

Review by Erick J.Reviewed 8/11/2023by Erick J.Colorado Springs, COExcellent and versatile MTB shoeBought this to replace a high-end model from another manufacturer and have been pleasantly surprised at the function, fit, and style. Love the sage green color which is a nice change from black. Highly recommended.

Review by Joel_CAReviewed 3/16/2023by Joel_CACycling EnthusiastNorcal1 of 2 customers found this review helpful.Fits well and look great! Due to the weather, I haven't had the ability to ride with these shoes outdoors - but I have been using them on my indoor trainer and they fit well and hold my feet tightly even as I pull up on the pedals. I simply slide my feet in and tighten the BOA dial a bit, move my feet around inside the shoe and retighten the BOA dial to its perfect setting. They look very nice , feel light on my feet, and were available at an excellent price point as well.

Review by AnonymousReviewed 5/19/2022by AnonymousCycling EnthusiastSouthern Maine6 of 6 customers found this review helpful.MTB shoe works for road as wellEven though these are listed as MTB shoes (anything with a two-hole cleat seems to be), I find them great for use on the road with some light gravel mixed in. I like to have the recessed cleat and tread to be able to walk easily when needed, but these shoes otherwise seem fairly minimal and lightweight compared to some "chunkier" MTB shoes. Good stiffness as well for smooth pedaling. I don't feel any need to change cleat style to get a shoe labeled for road use.
I also love the BOA closure system--makes it super easy to get in and out of these shoes and make small adjustments to the fit. The only upgrade I might look for in a future version is a double closure. In order to get the top of the foot tight enough I sometimes feel that the ankle closure is tighter than I would prefer. I've generally been able to find a good middle ground, but it would be nice to have the flexibility of two BOAs to dial in the fit even better.
For the price, I don't know if there's a better option for a two-hole cleat shoe that's used for road riding.

Review by MatthewReviewed 1/7/2023by MatthewCycling EnthusiastSouthern California, CA2 of 2 customers found this review helpful.Solid Shoe - Great for Mountain Bike Riding I have had these Fizik Terra Atlas shoes for just over 3 months now and am very pleased with everything about them. They are solid for riding with excellent power transfer (I slam my cleats all the way back - same as my road bike). The soles grip really well on the dirt of steep hills when the bike has to be walked. The shoes are easy to clean, and are very comfortable when simply walking in them.

Review by rdimpactReviewed 8/15/2022by rdimpactSC6 of 6 customers found this review helpful.GREAT SHOELove the shoe. I wear 11.5 US in everything. I went 45.5 but could have gone 45. A little loose but good when feet swell on long rides. Shoe has rubber dots in the heel but still have a little slippage. The way it is designed, I think I would have slippage even in a smaller size. Added a small heel pad and fine. Would recommend especially med to wide foot. Narrow maybe not.

Review by AnonymousReviewed 6/7/2022by AnonymousCycling EnthusiastPotomac, MD2 of 2 customers found this review helpful.No complaints, solid shoeIve used the Sidi Genius based shoe, both road and mtb for the past 25 years and nervous to change to something new. Glad I did. This shoe fits well out of the box. The single BOA tension devise works well. The shoe has good toe box space for wider feet. Off the bike, the shoe instils confidence walking.
Overall a good shoe for both road and trail. Only question is durability. After 1month, so far so good.

Review by RandyORReviewed 6/2/2022by RandyORCycling EnthusiastOregon1 of 1 customers found this review helpful.Quality shoe.Comfortable fit. Sized accurately. Construction quality appears good. Single BOA works well. Pointy shoes became unnecessary when toe clips went away. This lugged sole shoe would be improved with a square box toe.

Review by AnonymousReviewed 5/5/2022by AnonymousPortlandBest Iteration of Terra I�ve tried the Powerstrap and this model. This model is by far the best fitting. The shoe is comfortable sole is a good stiffness. They�re great to walk in, too. Unfortunately the heel does not grip well to my foot. The slippage doesn�t inspire confidence on rough terrain or when putting down power. I recommend trying them out. They might fit great for you. I decided to go with a Shimano shoe, as those tend to have a nice fitting heel.

Review by Wild in UTReviewed 4/13/2022by Wild in UTCycling EnthusiastUtah4 of 4 customers found this review helpful.Great for XC ridesThese are awesome XC shoes. The arches are really high when you first put them on (I have extremely flat feet). But after a few rides, the arches have adapted to my feet to create a perfect fit. The boa system allows for a perfect fit. The soles provide enough grip and protection for walking around while still being crazy light. High quality shoe all around!

Review by AnonymousReviewed 11/29/2022by AnonymousDeland, FL2 of 2 customers found this review helpful.Really good, but not greatSolid shoe. The cleat position can be set so much further back than my Shimano RX8 or Fizik X2 shoes, so way more adjustable. I wanted more walkability than my RX8 and firmer sole than my X2 and these areexactly what i was looking for. BOA is lower level and rhere is more movement in the heel than I would prefer, but hard to beat for the money. Shoe dries reasonably well but not as good as the X2. Comfy walker. Longestride is 200 miles. Typical ride is about 50... Would buy again. Hope this helps.
