Sidi Dominator 5 Mesh Woman's MTB Cycling Shoe has an upper shoe that is made with Lorica and nylon mesh. Lorica is a Hi-tech leather which is water-repellent, permeable to water vapor, and resistant to tearing, splitting, scratching and atmospheric agent
Strengths: I'm on my 3rd pair of Sidi shoes now, and I won't even try any thing else. I got a deal at velo swap, but these puppies are worth every penny of the usually expensive price. They are durable, fit is secure and comfortable, and over time they seem to mold to my foot. I like the ratcheting buckle, and the multiple adjustments of the straps. The sole is stiff and provides great power transfer, especially when cranking uphill. These shoes are also relatively light, which is good when it comes to counting grams for races.
Weaknesses: Sometimes in snow, mud, or wet conditions, the velcro straps come undone.
Bottom Line:
These are the best bike shoes on the planet! Hands down.
