Duration Product Used:
Less than 1 month
Strengths:
Looks, Durability, Comfort...everything!
Weaknesses:
Cost more than most other shoes
Similar Products Used:
Adidas Minret and most other MTB shoes
Bike Setup:
1994 Klein Rascal, RockShox SID Race, Mavic Crossmax SL's, SRAM X.0/X.9, Avid SL, TruVativ Carbon, Continental Leader Pro UST, Selle Italia SLR XC, Xpedo Ti Pedals.
Bottom Line:
You truly get what you pay for. While I have not had these for very long, I can already tell just how well they are crafted. These will easily outlive nearly ever other shoe on the market; what is $300 when it will last me three+ times longer than the equivalent $250-$300 shoe? I wish I had a pair of sneakers as comfortable. Oh, and they are efficiently stiff too!
