I purposely found Pearl Izumi cycling shoes because they feel a size smaller for most people...which works out perfect for me, since I have small feet (5 or 5-1/2, size 35 - which they don't make). So, size 36 Pearls that fit smaller were perfect.
I agree with the previous comments about the smell - though it's not that bad, it does have a funny plastic-like odor. I also have to agree with someone who said the ankles rub a bit; not too bad for me though.
I love the stiffness, and obviously, they are not as well-padded (comfortable) as the mountain-bike-style shoes that Giro makes. But they are excellent for what I need, and I'm very happy with the colors. Unfortunately, I don't have the luxury of being too choosy - I have to go with a size 36 Pearl Izumi no matter what...

The shoe is decently comfortable, especially with good riding socks. The front is a bit looser that I'd have liked, but it doesn't negatively impact my pedaling. The only big problem is the smell - it is very strong, and will fill the whole room. I had to leave it outside on the porch for a few days to let it air out.

This is a great shoe, well ventilated and extremely light weight. HOWEVER, it runs VERY small. I would suggest ordering at least 1 full size up. It also has a very strong odor about it. I have been wearing them for a couple of weeks and the odor shows little signs of going away. I hope it will eventually because I do really like the shoe.
