I have a pair of the 2010 shoes. Good comfort, very light weight, price reasonable.
Caution regarding sizing though; The 'Alpine' type i needed to get was size 11.5 / EU46, instead of my usual cycle shoe size of 10.5/EU4 (wearing my usual thin or medium socks -so my toes wouldn't pinch)
I have found through trial & error, that i need to get size 10.5 in cycling shoes, instead of my general shoe size of 10 ! -most cycling shoes seem to made slightly smaller than standard shoes...don't know why, but i have noticed this with Shimano, Mavic & Diadora cycling shoes -road & MTB type. Other cycling shoe brands like this ?
i've had a pair of these shoes since 2010, and they've been worn and ridden most days since then. very well made, flexible enough for hike a bike episodes (the cleat is recessed), well vented, and good looking too. through autumn i use sealskins socks and in the winter i use endura mt500 overshoes for when its really chill- thats the price you pay for good venting. excellent shoes- i can't recommend them enough.
excelente zapato para la practica de todo el mountain bike,su agarre al caminar en la montaña es increible,y es muy transpirable y la calidad alta.muy comodo y bonita esteticamente,recomiendo su compra.
