SidiDominator 7 MTB Shoe(Return to Product Page)

I bought these after owning a pair a few years back. This time around I got the sizing right and have been impressed with the newer ratchet strap that's more adjustable. The only knock I can find on them is that the heel could be a little more secure (I have narrower feet) but they fit perfectly everywhere else.

I've waited a long time to upgrade my cycling shoes. I only ride road, but always wear MB shoes so I can walk around. My foot is just slightly over a US size 13. I tried the 48, which all my other cycling shoes are, but my toes just touched the end. So I was forced to go to a 49 which is clearly too big. Still, what can I do? I kept them and cinch them up the max amount. As expected, the SIDIs are quality shoes. I think the are a tad cooler than my previous Specialized, but frankly, probably not worth double the money. These were a gift for my 70th birthday and I'm happy to have them.

It was time to get new shoes and decided to try a pair of Sidi's because I was told they were the best shoes you could get. Them have many of the same features of shoes both higher and lower priced. These were the best I tried on. They preformed flawlessly in a 50 mile race just three weeks after I got them!

I bought these shoes for strictly road bike use. They are plenty stiff enough for road riding. I have been riding since 1973 and started with nail on cleats and about 12 years ago decided that mountain bike shoes made more sense than road shoes. I did change the Sidi insole for my trusty Peterson insole. I have always been impressed by Side shoes and this is my first pair, I shouldn't have waited so long.

This shoe is replacing a pair of the same shoe that I had for years. Very reliable shoe that is very comfortable and fits like a glove. This shoe withstands all conditions and many parts on the shoe is easily replaceable if needed.

This pair was bought primarily for the spin classes I do when the weather isn't cooperating. They are perfect for the one hour classes (adjustments are easy to make without unclipping).

Another awesome SIDI shoe. I hail from roadtriathlon riding so was missing the adjustable heel cup from other models. Once I sorted out the best fit for my slightly narrow feet it was game on! Others like me might want to 1-ensure toe box comfort (length) 2-make strap ratchet adjustments (width) and 3-maybe explore insoles (footbed) to find that sweet ratchet click' that makes it feel all like a glove.

I've been long time Sidi shoe fan. This is the first non road shoe I've purchased from Sidi. Same quality and fit I've come to expect from Sidi road shoes. Fit comfort was perfect on first ride. Little to no break-in. Foot is snug and excellent sole stiffness.

My third pair of sidi shoes, but the main reason I continue buying them is they're one of the only manufactures that make a size 15. The ratching system is great in cinching them up but sucks in loosining.

I needed something wider than my previous Bontrager MTB shoe, and this definitely is. I really like the shoe, but had to get a Brooks insole for them, as the very racey insoles that came with the shoes were very light but paper thin.

So good I had to buy them again. My first pair lasted 14 years. So, when they finally looked to worse for wear I had to buy them again. Just as happy with the new ones as the first pair. Buckle and Velcro have always worked flawlessly. And they are really easy to adjust while riding.

My first pair fit so well I often wore them with out socks and never had a blister. Probably a bit of a triathlon carryover in to my mountain biking, because it did cause for a painful surprise whenever a small pebble found it way in there. But the stream crossings didn't leave me with a wet foot for as long either, so both have there advantages.

You won't be disappointed.

Quite simply this Sidi shoe is the most comfortable shoe I own and it's a mountain bike shoe. Every other shoe I've worn in the same price range is complete trash in comparison. I will never own another mountain bike shoe and I'll be switching to their road shoes next. Thanks Sidi for actually knowing how to make shoes.

Quality shoe with comfortable fit. Really love the upper ratchet strap.

I've been wearing Sidi on my bikes, road and MTB, for years. I wear a sz 50 medium-narrow. If you have long feet like me, then you know you have few options. While more expensive than many other shoes out there, you get quality in the Dominator MTB shoe. I have had some of my Sidi Genius and Dominator shoes for well over 8 years - they may show their age but are perfectly functional. The ratcheting strap works well for precise fit, and the velcro straps do the job too.

Overall recommended highly!

I love Sidi Dominators. I'm on my third pair of these shoes. I wear them every day, and they last for 3-4 years. And the fit is absolutely perfect for me. They seem expensive up front, but once you have them, you'll never buy another shoe.

This is my second pair of Sidi Dominators' The first pair lasted 10 years of riding 2-3 times per week. The old pair was a size 44 and were feeling tight so I ordered 44.5 which ended up way to big. I did exchange them for 44 which fit perfectly and feel larger than the old 44's. The new Dominators also have more mesh which keep the feet cooler in hot temps.

I wear a size 16 shoe. I had been wearing 50's from Lake and others. The fit was ok with one thin pair of socks. When I saw these Sidi's in 51 and 52s' I decided to give them a try. The 51's were a better fit but the 52's were perfect. Now I can wear multiple socks and chem packs comfortably. Ok, now onto the shoe itself. These shoes are comfortable and light with great construction quality. The soles are very stiff. Your feet feel as one with the pedal. The padded tongue is very comfortable. The heel cup is solid. The velcro straps provide a secure fit. The ratchet mechanism works great.

I use spd cleats but the shoe will accept other formats. All in all this is a tremendous MTB shoe.

The Sidi Denominators are the most durable cycling shoes that I've ever owned.
