The Sore Foot Solution

If your feet hurt on long/hot rides, these shoes are a must! Knitted fabric conforms to your feet and swells with your feet. The only downside is that the insoles are useless, so be prepared to buy an aftermarket kit.

Pros
  • COMFORTABLE AND SUPPORTIVE FIT: One-piece Xnetic knit upper with laces for a flexible yet supportive fit and excellent breathability
Cons
  • There are more interesting options.

These shoes are great for the price.

These shoes represent excellent value for money. They are stiff and quite comfortable for cycling shoes as the mesh upper is quite soft. However, they do hurt a bit if you over-tighten the laces before a hot ride. However, durability is a bit questionable. After only two weeks of riding with it (approx. 800 km), the material on the heel is already worn out. Part of this is because my feet aren't following the correct path of the pedal and my heel is rubbing on the grip as a result, but I've had

Pros
  • CUSTOM MOUNT & 3-BOLT STIKE COMPATIBILITY: Includes a SuperNatural Fit Kit sockliner with adjustable arch support for improved pedaling comfort and efficiency, and an XT2 fiber upper for odor control. Works with all 3 bolt pedal/cleat systems including Look, Shimano SPD-SL etc. Other systems may require adapters
Cons
  • For older
