The rubber is insanely grippy and they are super comfortable. The soul has vents too so the shoes don't smell really bad after a while. They seam really durable too. Overall a very good shoe

Sizing is excellent, lots of room in the toe box, and a very stiff sole….which I prefer

Good shoes but upper is quite stiff making them difficult to put on/take off. By coincidence I found a new pair of 2FO Clip shoes with BOA -- they're still stiff but the BOA closures make it easy to use!

Feels good when standing up, Velcro strap over shoe string would be nice

I have these mated to some crankbros mallet e pedals. These feel quite burly. I’d say they’re supportive under pedal, but they’ve shown me that I prefer a little bit more pedal-feel. I feel they’re just too stiff for my liking. They breathe adequately, only during pauses under the AZ Sun do I feel like my feet are melting but this goes away as I start moving again. Fit was a bit alarming at first as they only felt okay while pedaling. I toyed with different lacing patterns and tension. After a while they “broke in” and was able to get back to a tension that I liked under heavy pedaling. Nary a mark to the exterior of these which is saying something considering all the rock AZ has. Sole has some decent marks on it from clambering over said rocks and clipping in and out. I wish the cleat tracks would go further back but these are some of the better shoes I’ve had in that regard.

Good fit but really needs a velcro strap over the top like other shoe models and brands.

First time in a Specialized shoe and I’m very happy with the fit. Stiffness is good. Make sure to use the shoe size guide. The appearance of the shoes is weird from all angles but the side profile but the performance is there.

These shoes are great, especially for the sales price.

Awesome shoes

Good side shoes
