Excellent shoes, 3rd pair I have

Excellent shoes, I have 3rd pair. Great for cycling and getting off, can take difficult steps like no other. The flex is noticeable when walking, not when riding.

Pros
  • shoes
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

My first cycling shoes and I love them so much!

These are my first pair of cycling shoes so I can't compare them to anything but I love them! Boaz is great! I can also release them very quickly during a fast race when my legs swell a bit! Insoles feel great too!

Pros
  • Athletic
Cons
  • Legacy Model

Runs very small, best in shoes

I ordered a half size up as reviews said they run small. I can confirm that they work very little. I'd say a full size up, but the other issue is the width. Very tight to the point that I had a hard time putting on a thin running sock and slipping my foot in. Will have to return. Otherwise, the build quality seems to be high.

Pros
  • Clothing, shoes and jewelry
Cons
  • Frequency

Buy recommendation. Do not order one size larger. Adjust the adjustable insole.

The Pearl Izumi X-Project is the mountain bike shoe you'll want to take with you on any outdoor cycling adventure. Quality craftsmanship, a unique BoA dial specifically placed in the center to prevent damage, a single Velcro strap for athletic comfort, and a carbon fiber sockliner for high rigidity make this shoe highly acclaimed. Finally, the PI 1:1 insole system is another welcome addition, allowing you to customize the insole for specific orthopedic needs. (I have flat feet). Note. I had toโ€ฆ
