Great price better than Sidi Dominators

I've worn Sidi Dominators for years and am tired of paying $250 for shoes that don't last. I bought these shoes as a test run and after many months of hard riding and lots of sweat they feel like new. I'm a big sweater and my shoes get soaked with moisture (i.e. drip) after every summer ride, the sole on the Sidi eventually came off the shoe, but no sign of it from the physicists so far. stiffer sole and slightly lighter than Sidis which is what I wanted. I also like the single BOA closure, it works well for me in combination with the single velcro closure with lots of micro adjustments that you didn't get with Sidis. Hot spots are rare and it's easy to drop BOA while riding. I paid $113 but in my opinion it cost $150.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Easy repairability
