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

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Three rides and no hot spots or numbness!

I've only ridden three 20 mile rides so far which isn't much of an ordeal. But - I bought them because my custom made specialty shoes were causing hot spots, toe numbness and broken toenails. I definitely have numb toes after riding 20 miles in them so I'm hopeful! I wish the Giros had longer laces because I put in my orthotics for arch support. I'll try riding without insoles and decide if I need them or not, and if so I'll buy longer laces to accommodate that extra padding in the shoe. I am very happy with this shoe so far. Fingers crossed that you gave me a pain free ride! πŸš΄β€β™€οΈ Ride!

Pros

Works with all 3 bolt pedal/cleat systems including Look, Shimano SPD-SL etc. Other systems may require the adapter
