Picked up a pair of these yesterday, arrived today.
Really impressed, I'm generally a UK8.5 with fairly wide feet, and they actually fit really well. I had read that they come up narrow, but not sure I believe that. Seem well made, grey is inoffensive, pretty light considering they have dual boas etc.
Currently at £95.99 but I made the order up to £100.94 (x5 expander plugs @99p that I'm going to eBay) then used OUTLET20 to get the whole lot for £80.94
Can't think of anything that comes close for the money, even the new Decathlon RCR pro shoe is almost £100 more.

Wow, they've come down £25 since I ordered them!
I've actually sent mine back today sadly.
I have a degree of arthritis in my left big toe, and unfortunately, the exact point the lower Boa/ wire crosses over the top above the 1st metatarsal was causing pressure/ pain even when just trying on slipper-style on the carpet. Not the fault of the shoes at all (right foot was fine).
Very well made shoe, and bit gutted they're not going to work out for me. Absolute steal at this price! I'd agree, they're not too bad for an Italian shoe- marginally narrower in the toe-box than my S-Works 7's but not much.
Just bought a pair of these which seemed good value for the Italians top-end shoe

If they have your size, might be worth a poke....
