Strengths:    Good looks. Mine's brown and it looks pretty good.

Weaknesses:    Haven't found any yet. These are my first clipless shoes.

Bottom Line:   
Good first clipless shoes. Cheap and cheerful. Hopefully they'll prove to be durable. Bit cold for winter rides though.

Date Reviewed: September 15, 2009

Strengths:    Doesn't scream "biking shoe."

Weaknesses:    The insole is very thin. This is my first clipless shoe and maybe that's how they're supposed to be, but I have sensitive nerves on the bottom of my feet and the padding wasn't enough. A new insole from the local sporting goods store took care of the issue.

Bottom Line:   
I was looking for my first clipless shoe that fit right, looked casual, and didn't cost a fortune. This shoe fit the bill. I like a little bit wider shoe and this one fit me right.

I've only ridden in these shoes a few times now (50 miles), so I can't comment on the durability like the previous poster did. So far, so good though.

Submitted by tomak13 a Weekend Warrior from marseille

Date Reviewed: July 1, 2009

Strengths:    Good looking

Weaknesses:    The sole (vibram) cracked, the front of the shoes was ripped wery quickly

Bottom Line:   
I bought those shoes follwoing a nice experience with earlier Northwave shoes, that I kept for 5 years. Unfortunately those ones did not resist more than 7 rides!!! First the front of the shoes cracked, the leather is really bad! Second the Vibram sole just snapped, and now the cleat is no longer stable. These are the worst shoes you can find. I won't buy again shoes from Northwave, where has gone quality in 5 years???
