Shimano America SH-R099W Road Cycling Shoe - Women's

Rating for this product: 2 May 8, 2008

I would recommend the SH-WR80 (which costs 2x), or the SH-R0DW over this one. Tried all three, bought the SH-WR80. Oddly, I got all in the same size, and this one was too small. The ratcheting device on the other two allows for a more precise fit, not sure why this one doesn't have it. It also didn't feel as comfortable as the other two.

High Price, High Comfort

Shimano America SH-WR80 Road Cycling Shoe - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 May 4, 2008

I have problem feet (over pronate, low arches, bunions, etc.), so properly fitting shoe is critical. So far so good - have ridden a 68 mi and an 85 mi ride, along w/ shorter rides, and have found these to be very comfortable. The wide toe box is a big plus for me - other brands (esp Sidi) are too narrow. Plus they look great. Price is high, but so far I am pleased. The guys at my local bike shop don't think Shimanos last long, but maybe it's because they're using the cheap shoe (they don't carry the higher end models). I haven't yet done the custom heat molding, which should make things even better.
