Love It

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 4 stars because walk in these on a camber makes the sides dig into my ankles. Maybe that will get softer as they get worn in... I should be riding not walking anyway! Walking grip is decent though and the shoes flex a good amount to not feel like you're wearing flippers. Sizing is dead on and same as my flat freeride pro shoes. Super comfortable and the BOA is a god send. Never used boa before and want all my shoes with it. So easy to tighten them EXACTLY how I want and even easier to just pop them off with the other foot. They are very airy compared to the freeride shoes and probably best for summer riding but quick enough to dry out. I use these shoes probably a little different than most. I pair them with maglock magnetic pedals and the flat soles make grip really nice. The front pins don't touch but they arnt needed with the grip I currently have. Only draw back for anyone else who uses maglock pedals, the cleat cutouts are tapered in the back and interfere a little with the plate bolts. I may cut some of that out and see how it works to give just a little extra room but happy as is for now. Happy with the purchase!
