Sidi Genius (series 4 I believe, size 46.5. I purchased some Sidi Shot pro level shoes in good used shape about a month ago and have some rides on them. Right now due to the cold I am riding my Fizik Arctica winter cycling shoes. I have these leather metatarsal inserts in the both Sidi pairs (Pedag Comfort 3/4 insoles) and with the Fizik shoes I wear thicker wool socks and might use my “Strutz” arch supports that are from Wal-Mart.
The Shot’s are bling with blue patent leather. But they are very technical shoes and while the carbon sole is even stiffer than than the sole of the other 2 pair, I feel like I can adjust them for comfort.
