I know shoes are very personal but I have never had shimano shoes before. I am normally a lake shoe person but prices are pretty high on Lake these days.
thanks
shimmys r7 are OK at best , good enough to race on , but hard on my feet they dont conform and i get numb spots on centuries , maybe i just need some better insoles , i tried a few but nothing can make them comfy over 3 hours , YET , is say at this point it worth it to just learn to mold carbon and make your own show that fit your feet perfect , instead of rely on all these damn companies to sell a shoe that can actually be useful , i tried bont riot+ and they cracked after less than 2 months of winter riding , if their carbon shoes are that bad i figure if i took the time to learn to lay carbon i could easily just mold my feet and lay some carbon , and cover it with some fabric , add a few boas ot laces and never need these over priced POS shoes again < LOL !!!!
