Strengths: I've only had Sidi for the past 15 years.... genius 5. The last pair were Mega for wider feet. After only 5 years the inner lining behind the heel wore through. The rest of the shoe is perfect. The other side fine. My 10 year old Sidi never did this. The rep said sorry. I should buy a new pair. Materials flaw for me. Fit great and no other complaints.Weaknesses: Poor materialsBottom Line: I'm looking for a new brand to try after 15 years as a loyal Sidi customer. I don't think that spending this kind of money is worth the risk to see if they have used better materials on their next shoe.

Strengths: Excellent PerformanceWeaknesses: Poor QualityBottom Line: While this shoes performs excellently, I cannot recommend it due to a quality flaw. After 2 years, the heel reflector has cracked and peeled and looks horrible. In a pace line this is the only part of the shoe anyone really sees. In my discussions with the Sidi rep, I was told "The shield that covers the reflector can become brittle over time and even something as simple as you stepping on it when putting the shoe on can cause it to split open." And since the shoe is outside the one year factory warranty they will not fix it. I am sorry, but if I am going to spend $250 on a pair of cycling shoes I expect them to last longer than 2 years regardless of the factory warranty. This is obviously a design flaw and I would not recommend this shoe because of it.

Strengths: Feels great, adjustable, so they improved my performanceWeaknesses: While the price was higher than my previous shoes, it really is worth the cost to by Sidi'sBottom Line: Wow, after one weekend Sidi's are the best. The fit is fantastic and feels like a fine Italian shoe, which it is. I even noticed some performance improvement in my ride today.

Strengths: light, stiff, comfortable, support, feet dont go numb. good looking.Weaknesses: none yet.Bottom Line: Awesome shoe so far, After using Shimano's for almost 10 years. I knew after the first ride these were deffinently worth the price, I can actually put all the power into the peddles. The shimanos come to find out were not wide enough for my foot to expand when pushing on the peddles. I was always unsure about the reason until now. Also my feet no longer go numb after 20 miles or so.
