Northwave Shield MTB Cycling Shoes - SPD (For Men)
 
Excellent foot protection
By Wyoman from Colorado Springs, CO on 07/21/2009
Pros:
Durable Sole
Cons:
Finicky Closures

Everyday riding
Describe Yourself:
Competitive Cyclist
Sizing:
Feels half size too small
Width:
Feels true to width
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments:
The closure system failed after one year's use. It is not as reliable as a traditional ratched buckle system. However, this is not a major concern because a traditional buckle can replace the wheel system. The best part of this shoe is the excellent toe protection when ridding among rocks.

Got the them in the Yellow/Red combo, but what it didn't say was that one shoe is yellow and the other one red... Very stiff, and well ventilated. Do not fit as well as my Sidi, but so far very happy

Good looking and extremely well ventilated. As per other posters, it's best to use the Eoropean sizing chart rather than the American sizing chart.

everything I expected

Pros:
Durable Sole
Best Uses:
Everyday riding
Describe Yourself:
Avid Cyclist
Sizing:
Feels true to size
Width:
Feels true to width
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments:
My experience with Northwave shoes has always been positive. That's why I have 4 different pairs.Granted the Red/Yellow Aerators aren't for everybody but the Aerator shoes are some of the best out there and I would know since I have 11 other pairs of shoes to wear. For me it's all about simplicity the shoe must fit, look great, and be reasonably priced. Any high end shoe will have a stiff sole but you have to wait for the outrageous prices to come down. That's where companies like Sierra Trading Post come in. Thank you

Comfortable, Conforming, Durable Sole, Good for Walking, Weatherproof
Cons:
No overstrap
Best Uses:
Cold wet cycling

Sizing:
Feels true to size
Width:
Feels true to width
Bottom Line:

Comments:
Entry is OK and the tie inner closure takes some practice but overall a nice shoe for bad weather. Don't expect extreme cold capability, there is little insulation. I recommend buying a 1/2 size larger to accommodate heavier socks if you want to go below freezing temps. Surprisingly waterproof and excellent stiff sole but walkable.

Northwave Revenge Road Cycling Shoes - 3-Hole (For Men)
 
Well Made, But Difficult to Figure Size
By BillVerified Reviewer from Richmond, VA on 04/04/2009
Best Uses:
Everyday riding, Long-distance riding
Describe Yourself:
Avid Cyclist
Sizing:
Feels full size too small
Width:
Feels true to width
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments:
I placed different orders for two styles of Northwave Cycling Road Shoes. I am returning both pairs due to the size being too small. I normally wear a size 45. (USA sizing 10.5). I followed the Northwave sizing chart, which is different from some other companies and ordered size 43 or USA size 10.5. The shoes were too small. I reordered the Northwave Revenge Road Cycling Shoe, because the other style that I had originally ordered was not available in a larger size. This time I followed the sizing chart, but ordered size 44 or USA size 11. The shoes are still a little too short. The width does seem to be comparable to a size D width. My suggestion for anyone ordering Northwave cycling road shoes is to go one size up from the chart listed with the shoes.
