Ordered a 46 but it was really small. On the box it said US 10.5. Way off!

i bought these shoes in april of 2021. excellent on the bike and decent when hike-a-biking off the bike. my only complaint is that the velcro has continuously gotten less sticky and now just mostly flaps around. ive tried cleaning the velcro and it didnt seem to help. im trying to figure out a way to fix this... i may just permanently seal the flap. would be 5 stars if it wasn't for the velcro.

One big flaw with this shoe

There’s one big flaw with this shoe: the top buckle strap stretches and loosens with use. I found that I have to stop every 20 min or so to retighten the strap. Very frustrating. Also, after only 3 months of use the strap has permanently stretched and even when I tighten the buckle all the way it still feels loose. Given the price point, I expected more from Shimano. They need to fix this because it’s a great shoe otherwise.

Great service,good product.

I ordered a width size too small and needed to exchange it. My request was handled quickly and shipped out the next day. I have had foot surgery and the replacement pair of Shimano ME702s are better fitting but not perfect. That's ok. I can handle the fit so much better than the original order size. Thanks!

Ordered these Shimano MTB shoes for wet weather riding with a bit of hesitation due to price. Turns out these things are great for all types of conditions. Fit is great, comfortable and keep feet dry . Love the ratchet system as it is simple and quick.Ankle gaiter keeps dirt out of shoe which is an added bonus. You won?t regret spending the extra cash for these bad boys!

No shoe is perfect. And when I boughty first pair of these last year I removed to lace cover and gaiter just to improve the ventilation. But after a year on them and trying other things in similar style, I can say these outshine the competition by far. First and foremost the cleat mounts directly to the shoe and doesn't have that weird recess channel like everyone else is doing. Gives you a low stack, no need to shim anything and a very good pedal feel. Second the cleat placement is centered unlike others that seem to move it inboard and give you make you feel like you're standing on the outside of your pedals. This year Shimano didn't do half sizes and I was disappointed but with the right insoles the 46 works well for me (previously had a 45.5, 11-11.5 street shoe). If you use a flatter or the stock insoles your feet spread out more in the shoe. A more arched insole and you can fit a little smaller shoe. I've ridden the previous version everywhere from DH park to Moab. They are incredibly durable and the soles look great after a year. But the thing I like most is the balance between flexibility and stiffness. They pedal excellent but give you some flexibility to twist your feet during bike control. They don't have that dead stiff feel....just right. These new ones have a little better ventilation. And while I thought I'd want a boa, I have broken a boa on the trail. Something that won't happen with these. A great shoe for everything! Thank you Shimano!
