Sidi Genius 4 Carbon Shoes

Average Rating: 4.5/5
MSRP: $ 350.00
# of Reviews: 2

Sidi has utilized the stiff yet comfortable carbon sole from the Ergo-1 and morphed it with the Genius 4 to create a new classic. Wide Arch Compression Strap and two Velcro closures make this one of the best-fitting shoes available. Lorica and mesh upper. Compatible with all three-hole mount pedals. 39-47, including half sizes 39.5–45.5

Strengths:    The carbon sole, the FIT, availabilty of replacement parts and the price.

Weaknesses:    none

Bottom Line:

I bought these shoes as New Old Inventory from CBikeOutlet (eBay). The uppers are beautifully stitched & the carbon soles looks FREAKY great. The carbon soles are light & stiff compared to the Millenuim 2 soles. Be sure to tighten all screws on the shoes (heel pads & SL buckles)

Strengths:    Light, high quality, good fit for American feet, look really nice

Weaknesses:    The retail price ($350) is super high for any pair of shoes, regardless of the quality.

Bottom Line:

OK, first of all, these shoes were sent to me accidentally. I didn't order the carbon model, but I'm certainly not going to return them for the price I paid.
These are really comfortable shoes. They are very light and the sole is super stiff. They fit my size 9 1/2, American width feet just fine. The ventilation is real nice. The buckles are high quality and really easy to use.
