ShimanoSH-RP3 Road Shoe(Return to Product Page)

shoes fits well and provides ample support. They are comfortable even on long rides. I have a wide foot with a high arch and they do not pinch or feel too snug. Overall, this shoe is well made and the adjustable straps allow it to be easily molded to my foot. As a road cyclist who averages 30-50 miles of riding per week, this shoe fits the bill.

Good for summer riding, when it gets cool I put tape over the holes, when it gets cold I put booties over them.

I had an earlier version of this shoe (the R107) and decided to finally replace them with what I thought was a good deal on a pair of Sidi's. At similar price points the Shimano's are much more comfortable and lighter. I also find the strap mechanism much easier to use with the Shimano shoes. The shoes also offer much more flexibility with clip mounting as the screw position within the shoe itself can be moved. On colder rides I would put some masking tape on the soles to block off the vents. The same vents will also let in a lot of water during really wet rides.

I have moderately wide feet and these were the best fitting and comfortable ones out of the ones I tried on. No foot pain at all, even after strenuous riding. One of the few bike items I own that I don't desire to upgrade unless I want different colors

I use the Shimano road shoes for a daily commute and recreational riding.

These shoes are very well deigned and and are very cool (they have ventilated soles). They clip beautifully and are quite comfortable.
