Review on Optimized for SEO: PEARL IZUMI Men's V5 Race Road Cycling Shoe by Major Callaham

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The BOA system needs improvement.

BOA system needs improvement. The locking system does not fully tighten the entire upper. It only seems to pull in one area, causing discomfort and a lack of fit. The lacing is a bit odd in the way it's presented, and the use of fabric eyelets for the laces keeps the laces from slipping easily. If the shoes used plastic BOA lace guides and better lace alignment, these shoes would be great! For orientation: I wear men's shoes in size 7->8 (dress->sneakers) and bought size 40.

Pros
  • Synthetic sole
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors
