Vittoria Tierra Gravel Cycling Shoes - Men's & Women's Off-Road Bike Shoes for Adventure Riding | Lightweight & Durable for Trail, Commuting & Bikepacking

Great shoe. Runs big I wear an 8 normally, bought a 7.5 and could still probably go down to a 7. Super light and comfortable. The short does break off on the lace easily. Had to replace lacesFirst off I will admit I got this purely because they are so shiny.I ordered a size 47 and they fit really well, I normally wear a 47 wide in a Shimano shoe and these arepretty close, I disagree with other reviewers who say they are narrow, at least the toe box isn't.Only reason I didn't go 5 stars is:1) Insoles are pretty cheap, just thin foam. I replaced with a pair of Shimanos much better.2) Laces where to short, I expect they use same size laces regardless of size, I had to purchase Giro laces.3) I would like to see more rubber on bottom of shoe.4) Personal preference, but I'm not really a laces type of guy, would have preferred a boa or ratchet system.Other wise they are really comfortable, not too bad to walk in, have pretty good traction.For the most part I really like these shoes. They are very narrow so if you require a wider shoe just be aware. I made a few adjustments and after they break in they feel pretty good. Awesome quality beautiful workmanship and over all nice gravel and cycling shoe.These shoes-WOW!-awesome! I don't get too excited about shoes, but these things are so beautiful and well made! I got the purple color and depending on the light it is blue or purple. So cool. I wear a 9.5 in US and that is what I ordered and it fits perfectly. One reviewer said the shoe is narrow and I agree. But over time I am sure it will loosen up.I use this shoe for allroad and gravel riding. I love the styling of the shoes, but they have a host of performance and other problems including: a flexible sole that causes mid-foot pain after about an hour of riding, laces that are too short, a lacing system that forces you to stop mid-ride and relace when your feet swell, and a sole that collects rocks and other debris if you have to walk.
