They fit my wide feet nicely. Stiff sole.

The ratcheting device gets tall grass stuck in it. Always need to tighten it on rides.

Bike Setup:

Bottom Line:
I am surprised they have lasted as long as they did for what I put them through. The inside is starting to fall apart but the exterior is holding up well. Other than having to tighten the shoes during rides the shoe has been a solid performer.
The bottom is a little slippery on wet root and rocks but it has a nice stiff sole.

Bottom Line:
Simple shoes for people with irregular feet. I still prefer SIDI or even Specialized over this. Side support is just too weak and its cheap. There is also no side support at all so don't walk.
