Review on MTB Mountain Bike Cycling Shoes for Flat Pedals - Ideal for Free Riding, Enduro, Trails, Commuting, and BMX - Black by Ralph Banks

This shoe is thick around the ankle, stiffer than usual and flat on the bottom. It is ideal as a cycling shoe. for both pedal traction and protection if your ankle wants to hit the bike frame and have your own opinion. Stupid knuckles! However, the pair I received is too small. I wear a size 11 and depending on the brand sometimes a 10-1/2 fits. I had some chafing on my toes and an uncomfortable pinch on my sides because of this. I'd probably be better off at 11-1/2. Or maybe 12, I'm not sure. But for testing under the Vine program, you get one pair per trial, and that's it. Very durable construction, with suede and an extra stitch in the sole and a little thicker around the ankle than it appears in the photos. There is a vertical reflective white stripe on the back. Can be worn as a normal leisure shoe, but is not really recommended due to the emphasis on bike suitability and rigidity.
