Going clipless and which shoes?

I would always recommend these:

I've had 3 pairs and prefer them to shoes with a ratchet system.

When my Sidis go I'll go back to some velcro Shimanos, stay tight for longer and are a more relaxed fit

Shimano R107 shoes are interesting; can run SPD-SL and SPD/ATAC on the same shoe with a crabon plate under the cleat area keeping things stiff and velcro/ratchet upper and all for £80

I tried these on - the fit is peculiar with a really wide/square toe box and a massive arch/overall curve that keeps going past the ball of any human's foot.

Got a friend who has wide feet (a G in old Clarks shoes money, whereas most peoples were a C) and is looking for shoes which are known to work well for those wide of foot..

Quick scan above seems to be Northwave are a goer, anymore for anymore?

Mavic in their wide sizes, I have a 10 wide in the rush/razor and I love them.

Some Giro shoes come in HV (High Volume) which equates to a larger toe box and wider sole across the ball of the foot.

Most people were an F (80%), and E was the next most common. I was a D, and it was hard to find stuff in stock at times. I'm talking 1970s here.

BMMF, my friend must have remembered wrongly.
Gonna send him over to Sigma Sport so he can try on some Mavic/Northwave and Giro wide foot shoes.

My work here is done..

Carnac used to be popular with the wide foot brigade.

Try Fizik too. Big toe boxes (oo-er)

In the market for some new shoes, anyone got any recommendations for some MTB shoes with a rachet and preferably a Fluro colour way? I wear a tonne of black so I quite fancy some contrast whilst on the bike.

Thinking of getting these. Anyone have them?

I'd recommend http://www.wiggle.co.uk/dhb-m20c-carbon-mountain-bike-cycling-shoe/

Carbon MTB stiff soles for a less than £100 which is nice. I tried them out and I should've bought them. Ended up getting Shimano's which are decent. No major complaints. A few niggling things like ratcheting system is not as tough as I would've liked and the position of the cleat is not as far forward as I would've liked. But hey that's what road shoes are for.

Next purchase are a pair of some road shoes with keo pedals. They give a much greater power transfer but as we all know walking in road shoes is impossible but riding is more efficient and I prefer it when I put the foot down.

Go to a shop and try some on.

DREDGE. I'm looking for shoes to use with time atac pedals. I've only used SPD-SL before and they're terrible to walk in. Would something more casual like chrome kursk be easier to walk in etc than "proper" shoes like giro privateers?

Even MTB shoes is easier to walk than road clipless, go to a shop and try out the selection.

If you're comfortable with your current shoes, worth finding an MTB version of it.

I've just bought a pair of chrome midway pro , comfy to walk in too !

Picked up some giro empires on ebay for an absolute bargain,

my lord are they comfy

Alright team - My Sidi's are great, but they are just a little tight and after 170km yesterday I find myself looking for a better fit. I know Northwaves are pretty wide, how to Giro and Specialised size up in comparison to Sidis?

I've got wide, flat feet, but not quite wide enough for wide-fit shoes. I have some Mega Dominators and they're slightly too high-volume...

Tempted by either the Factors or the S-Works Road. It's annoying because I ride in Speedplays, and my current Sidi's are Speedplay specific, but comfort trumps stack height...

Also, annoyingly, my feet have a variation in size which is quite noticeable after a lot of riding. I'll have to pass it by Scherrit, who did a lot of work to get my insoles right, but does the hivemind think that custom moulded insoles will be useful in accommodating that difference?

My Giro in 44 fit similar to my Sidi in 45.

Spes is quite narrow, found it uncomfortable (44)
