Strengths:
Review is actually for 631 which has a buckle.
Very good quality material, looks like it will last forever. Good velcro and attachment. Stiff and light. Retro blue plastic color.
Weaknesses:
Size is slightly big compared to my old shoes (nike and specialized).
Rubs across the top of the foot.
Retro blue plastic color.

Bottom Line:
Very impressive quality. Fit is slightly big, but I can still use them.
For the first few rides it rubbed or pressed across the top of my foot, from on side of ankle to the other. But it more or less went away, I've been using for 6 months and it doesnt bother me anymore. But last week I put in 4 stright days (almost 100 miles total) and i noticed a little blistering on that spot.

Alafia River State Park
Duration Product Used:
Less than 1 month
Price Paid:
$50.00
Purchased At:
Nashbar.com
Strengths:
Seem to be well constructed. Removable front cleats. Fit snugly and are somewhat comfortable for a cycling shoe...
Weaknesses:
UGLY! I actually have the SM-631 and they are very blue and very shiny.
Similar Products Used:

Bike Setup:
Trek 3900 with Shimano M-520 pedals
Bottom Line:
I haven't used them that much to date, but so far so good. Very good for the price anyways. If you just want a shoe that isn't fancy and gets the job done, this is a good way to go.
