I've had them for a few months now and I have to say I'm pleasantly surprised. I've worn Sidi for many years but can no longer afford to spend over $350 on a pair of cycling shoes. It was a bitter pill to swallow, but they fit well, the boots seem fine, they're comfortable, like mold on the foot. I can't say how they will hold up over time, but my first impression is that they offer good value for money.
