How do they perform in cold weather?
About as well as you'd expect for single ply leather shoes. Covers recommended in the winter.
any chance you guys have experience comparing this to the Alp-X Summit MTB shoes?? Thanks for the review
We do not but if we ever do, we will let you know!
Nice review. Looks like a good shoe. Have to check it out next time I'm in the big city. Take care, Al
Thanks 👍
I have a problem with these shoes after only two hours of riding. The edge of the tongue puts pressure on my ankle and the tongue slips down and sideways. Any similar behavior? Thx.
Hasn't happened to us, perhaps they aren't sized properly?
@@GreenMountainGravel , thanks for your response. I usually ride Pearl Izumi in 44. I kept on doing git in this new shoe. I guess that this was not the reason. I read somewhere about this very same issue.
Tried them at the local dealer. Really nice fit. Would buy them if they had laces.
great job! Nice pain cave!
Thank you! Cheers!
I’m 58kg will flex be noticeable when riding? I like stiff shoes too.
Difficult to say, we weigh a lot more than you. Recommend trying them on at your local PI dealer!
@@GreenMountainGravel ok haha but did you notice flexing when pedaling out of saddle? Thank you
