Review on πŸ‘Ÿ Giro Empire Knit Women's Cycling Shoes: Optimal Comfort and Style by Joshua Mccall

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ideal for wide feet and offers a softer feel

So happy I bought them! I was looking for my first pair of Peloton cycling shoes. After trying another type that I felt was too stiff and narrow and really digging into the bones on the sides of my legs (because I have wide feet) I thought maybe I could adjust the width by doing try it with a lacing. They're also great because the sides and upper are made of fully flexible fabric (similar to sneakers) but still provide enough support. Much more comfortable and conforms to my feet than the stiffer ones I've tried with velcro straps before! I think this is a great option for women with wider feet looking for a three-bolt compatible shoe, or for those looking for a little more comfort and less hard plastic. I wear size 9 Asics women's shoes and bought them size 42. They are not too big for me, but offer enough space and I feel very comfortable in length and width when cycling. I tie them fairly tightly and they provide good structure and support when in use. Highly recommended!

Pros
  • SUPERIOR ADJUSTABLE FEATURE: The Empire laces offer unrivaled fit customization, keep the knot secure and are the lightest closure system on the market
Cons
  • Unsure
