I had Lake shoes/Giro/Louis Garneau/nortwave and time. All getting my under feet after a couples hours very hurting… i bought the EKOÏ R8 LIGHT and they are the more comfortable shoes I have ever had!!! My feet never hurt even after an 6 to 8 hours😀
-
I find most far too narrow. Finally got some Lakes that are wide. And what a difference! Had a pait of shimanos and needed them almost two sizes larger to get my wide feet into.
-
I recently got the Boardman's after trying several shoes including Specialized, Bont, Fizik, Shimano and Sidi. The Boardman's felt the most comfortable, by a good margin and equal to shoes that were up to three times the price. I'm delighted I put the brand snobbery aside
-
I have a broad foot. Tried a few manufacturers. I now use Lake, they have different width fittings and I love them, so comfortable. I went to a local supplier and tried on before buying. It’s the only way. I used RXM custom north of Derby. Great personal service.
-
Best brand and shoes for me are Lake brilliant I own a few pairs all excellent. . 😊🚴🏻😃🥇Pete
-
Do like the S Works. They’re very “non-Italian” in the width department 😃
-
You mention the s works boa dial doesn't pop out to release. Good as it's clockwise/anticlockwise movement makes micro adjustment possible whilst riding. Best mechanism yet. Doing away with the useless velcro front strap is another. Well done Specialized.
-
I have the fiziks and have found them very comfortable except for the tongue, which is very stiff and has no padding creating hot spots on the tops of my feet. I stuck some sticky foam to the inside of the tongue which helps but only stays on for a few months. Does anyone else have this issue? Does anyone have a more permanent solution?
-
I’ve been using sidi wire 2 it’s good for racing , sidi qenius 10 good for endurance , but my rc7 shimano does it all 😮
-
My favorite shoes are my Giro Empires - got a new pair to replace the previous model, tried Fizik's and didnt get on with the fit, would like to try the shimano's one day
-
Lake!
-
Love the channel but the video quality needs to step up big time. appreciate the review on multiple footwear options, thanks!
-
Sidi only for me, made in Italy quality. I have black Wire 2 and Fluo Yellow Genius 10’s White is WAY too trendy.
-
I've Fizik Stabilita Carbon, in size 8 uk... Love them but they are so narrow... 🥺🥺🥺 Cant seem to break them in.
-
Just bought the bont riot + for $140. Absolutely by far the best designed shoe that I've tried yet especially if you need a wide toe box
-
Interesting but I won’t fit brands like Fizik, Sidi due to my wider feet. I found Shimano a really good fit across most of their range and wonder why more brands don’t do more but also wonder why the Sphyres aren’t on your list. Also Velokicks have some really good offerings from a price vs performance perspective.
-
Have you done a review of best shoes for wide feet?
-
If someone is looking for a low budget but quality shoes, Shimano rc5 is a good option. Can find them under 100€ if lucky. They are stiff but comfy. They also have great ventilation. BUT if you have wide feet don't bother.
-
Love my Giro Empires
-
I am leaning toward specialized because the front boia doesn’t tighten the entire toe box. My wife shamino. Pinched my toe.
