Overall great gravel and off-rd shoe

The first Fizik shoe for me and seems to have the quality needed to withstand the conditions at a lower cost than what I usually buy. The fit is good with the only issue has been the thin instep tongue causing some chafing. Wearing thicker socks solved the issue. I would recommend these for riding.

Thank you for your feedback.

These shoes are amazing

A big upgrade for me. Wanted a non-heavy MTB shoe, loved the BOA dials. Fit is great, no pinch spots. Put it through the paces in mud and gravel. Even slid out one time and really didn't scuff. zero guilt about this buying this one.

Thank you for your feedback.

Excellent fit, ventilation and stiffness at a great price.

Use these on a road bike with SPD pedals. The light-weight design and good ventilation make these a great road shoe for those who prefer shoes they can walk in. The boa provides and easy custom fit and the carbon reinforced sole offers excellent power transfer. A great shoe at a great price.

Thank you for your feedback.

excellent mtb shoe, very comfortable

I flip between this shoe and my Bontrager road shoes when riding. Usually using these shoes when I have to walk inside since the cleats are recessed.

The shoes are very comfortable and fit quite well. I have used them on 50 mile road rides, long gravel rides.

Thank you for your feedback.

Stick to Their Saddles

Not much for me to like here.

- Shoe is narrow. (I have a normal width foot.) Not very breathable. Sole too sticky - doesn't allow me to use float on pedals. Sole grips too long, so harder to clip in. (I use Candy pedals.) With only one Boa, binds at top of foot. I regret not spending the money to buy another pair of Sidi's. Live and learn.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great shoe except for pressure on big toe.

I have the green. If I had a do over, I would get the black. I wear a 10.5 shoe and my foot is rather narrow. The 44 fits me well, however, there seem to be a pressure point on the bottom of my big toe - not present in any of my other shoes. Boa system works well. I hope it stands the test of time.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great shoe at a great price

Got these shoes for Zwifting. Easy on and off, plus they are easy to walk in safely without slipping. The close snugly but the Boa closures are adjustable.

Thank you for your feedback.

Very pleased

The shoes fit very well as the boa system snugs the shoe nicely. I like that I can adjust the fit quickly during a ride.

Reviewers mention that they slip off the pedal when clipping in if the pedal isnt hit just right. I experience that too. I guess thats the penalty for a stiff shoe. However the power transfer is excellent.

Fit is true to size.

Thank you for your feedback.

Not comfortable for me

Shoes fit well, look nice, decent price, but extremely uncomfortable for me. I started getting hot spots on my feet even during short rides(1 hour) when wearing them. I am going to replace the insoles and see if that helps.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great shoe and Great Service from Bikes Tires Direct!

I use these shoes for both road and trail riding. Easy enough to walk in, snug fit, they run about a size large based on my fit. The first pair was too big so reordered and exchanged without any hassle. I was leary of the Boa system but after a few weeks of hard trail riding, I would be hard-pressed to go back to triple strap systems. At this point, I wouldn't hesitate to buy them again.

Thank you for your feedback.

Extremely comfortable shoe. Fits well, power on every stroke. Love the lace attachment

I always had foot issues in cycling. I was told to try fibe rcarbon shoes. I have an old pair of fiber carbon shoes another type. They work well, expensive. I need another pair for my recumbent trike. Price was the factor on these shoes. They fit well. Love the lace attachment. No hot spots, no virbrations, perfect for narrow thin feet.

My feet are happy. I'm happy also.

Thank you for your feedback.

Comfortable shoe for long gravel rides but needed to add insoles with the metatarsal bump.

Awesome show

Fizik shoes fit great due to their supple uppers and boa lacing. Feel light on the feet and not clunky. Great shoe for cyclocross and they have a better footbed than other mountain bike shoes. Get a pair & you wont be sorry.

Thank you for your feedback.

Sleek and comfortable

I use these for spinning and am very happy with them. My feet are slightly narrower than average with a high arch, and these fit perfectly. The dial tightening system is effective and super easy to use. However the velcro strap on the toe is mostly ornamental. The shoes are stiff and reasonably light. I like them most because of the fit, the dial closure system, and the sleek, simple styling.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great price and fit, US13.

Use this shoe for Mountain Biking in all types of terrain and conditions. Very comfortable and provides secure fit when traversing rock, roots. Considering also using this shoe on road bike to eliminate multiple shoes and pedals.
