Just got delivery of my Bont Vaypors. Initial try felt great bar a slight pressure point in a couple of places on the heel and near arch which seems a common complaint. Am certain the heat moulding will aleviate this. Simply putting them on brought a smile to my face and I know once heat moulded I will have found my perfect fit shoes.
Build quality not up there with Sidi or even Shimano, but treat them well and they should last. Decent amount of replaceable parts too.
Their sizing guide was pretty spot on for my feet could perhaps gone half size more but dont do half sizes in odd numbers.
Id suggest anyone that has the wider foot to seriously consider the Bonts. They definitely better shaped for people with larger big toes than the rest of the foot. Not so for the longer middle toes and narrower feet (going by the Weight Weenie Bont thread).
