Reviewed by jpelej from Chicago, IL on Friday, July 20, 2012Great shoes but you need to buy aftermarket insoles if you have any sort of arch in your foot. Plus the stock insoles are basically plastic so there is hardly any cushion for ride comfort.
- Cons: Stock insoles are horribl

- Pros: High quality construction, Very efficient on pedals
- Sizing: Feels half size too big

Reviewed by Beaches from Oakland, CA on Saturday, June 23, 2012Love this shoe. I wear an 8.5 women's, and ordered these in 41 and they fit perfectly! They look really nice too, I normally see these in black, but the silver is a much nicer color. The strap release are the ones you have to squeeze, not the kind you pull up, which can be a little annoying. But other than that, it's great. And awesome price at STP once again!

Got wide feet? look for ones labled "mega"

Reviewed by Libby_g from Livingston, NJ on Friday, September 30, 2011I already own the Sidi 5 Pro with the cleated sole which are a great shoe for touring, but have a heavier sole and are constructed from a thicker leather. These shoes have the carbon fiber millenium III sole which improve power transfer a great deal in the hills and are noticeably lighter. Ratcheting system to control fit works well and can be adjusted mid-ride. A great value at about $165., I paid $280 for my SIDI cleated touring shoes at full retail so this represents a great value. These shoes are made in Romania, BTW.
- Best Uses: Climbing, Long-distance riding

Reviewed by Old Man from Nashville, TN on Sunday, August 14, 2011I've worn these for about two months now and after 600 miles I still love them. Very comfortable. I have heard that Sidi run narrow, so I apparently have a narrow foot as they fit me well. I like the latching mechanism. The rubber heel is replaceable and comfortable to walk in. I generally wear clip covers anyway. Best cycling shoe I've ever owned.

Reviewed by Pyscolist from Arlington, MA on Monday, August 01, 2011This shoe is awesome, and at a cheap price with the 15% discount. This my first cycling shoes and I love it. Of course, I tried it out at the store before I bought it, but this was the only place I could find this color. This fits me perfect, because I have narrow feet, so these Italian made shoes are perfect for that. You can't beat the price here[...]

Reviewed by Sesa from Bright, Australia on Friday, July 01, 2011Sidi cycling shoes are brilliant, full stop. The quality is second to none. I have a pair of MTB shoes that are identical apart from the sole, and they have out lasted any shoes I have ever had. Harsh punishment and they still look great, feel great, and show few signs of wear. I expect these road shoes will do exactly the same. The micro adjust ratchet closure is invaluable, easy to adjust mid ride as your feet warm up. The size of Sidi shoes in my experience are a little different to Shimano, maybe half a size longer, but a narrower fit. Ie I take a 39.5 Sidi but 40 Shimano.

Reviewed by Jim from Chagrin Falls OH on Monday, June 06, 2011[...] I use Sidi for my road, MTN, and motorcycle footwear. The dog happened to eat my road shoes and I found these online[...]and the shoes are great, road shoes are never meant for walking but that said, why disturb a good shoe, use them for what they're intended. I'm no Greg LeMond but I am comfortable for the long hall with great power transfer.
