Review on Shimano Unisex BMT301L44: A Comprehensive Guide to Standard Parts by Michael Keegan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Light shoe for click pedal

First of all, riding with clipless pedals and the right shoes is so much better than without - no comparison! To the Shukhen; Fit is fine, tragedy is normal 42/43 and ordered the 44s. Length fits, the width could be a little smaller, but it's not annoying. However, what really annoys me is that after an hour I get "burning soles". If I then take off the shoes after 5 hours, I have pain for the next 5 minutes. I still have to see if I can do that with thin insoles. I suspect this is because the soles of the shoes are very stiff - whenever they are. But otherwise pleasant to drive in spring/summer. Pretty airy. Even when it rains - the shoes are not waterproof, but they dry quite quickly!

Pros
  • the product meets the expectations. a good product to buy as a first cycling shoe instead of buying expensive ones.
Cons
  • The price of SHIMANO parts for men's single bikes may be too high for some budget consumers.
