nashbar
Strengths:
Comfy.
Weaknesses:
Surface rubber is disintegrating, and soles are cracking apart, and both have peeled half way off within 7 months use. Fabric of velcro is very ratty already too.
Similar Products Used:
Shimano spd sandals.
Bottom Line:
I didn't wear these all winter, so my warranty was up by the time they died. So far Lake is giving me BS, and hasn't warrantied them. They lasted less than 7 months!!!
My old shimanos lasted for years!
Don't buy lake, it's a mistake!!

Duration Product Used:
2 Years
Price Paid:
$60.00
Purchased At:
La Habra Cyclery
Strengths:
Cool and comfortable in warm weather. Foot is held secure no foot movement or slipping.
Weaknesses:
They dont have heaters for winter riding. Okay, Okay I no complaints about them.
Similar Products Used:
Shimano but they don't make them in my size.
Bike Setup:
Fisher Sugar 1
Bottom Line:
I love them. I only wear shoes when it is cold. I was hesitant when I rode my first trail with them. I wore socks the first time and hated it cause I looked like a old man wearing socks with sandals. What was I thinking? There is a toe guard which keeps almost everything out. If not just un-clip for a second and let gravity do the work. If you like tan and cooler feet buy them. Like I said I never wear shoes...unless it is cold out.

Favorite Trail:
50 Year Trail
Duration Product Used:
More than 3 years
Price Paid:
$65.00
Purchased At:
Nashbar, Performance, AE Bike
Strengths:
Comfortable and durable. You get a nice tan on your feet, if you want to. Saves money on socks.
Weaknesses:
Limited sizes. Our trails put the sand in sandal. ;-)
Similar Products Used:
Shimano and Exus SPD Sandals
Bike Setup:
2 bikes: a Scalpel and cheap hard tail. Love them both.
Bottom Line:
If you ride in Arizona, as I do, the warm weather makes this foot gear useful year round. The high toe guard stops the cactus spines . . . Ok, mostly stops cactus spines. These sandals are hard to beat for comfort in really warm weather. If you prefer sweaty socks and desire a white ankle tan line, you should stick to regular shoes. ;-)
