Giro Empire road shoes.

I would like the above shoes however they’re pricey & my size have all gone in the Black Friday sales.
I’m open to any other shoe that has laces which might save a few quid.

Any links welcome.

I need 43.

Have you tried them on as Giro come up quite small and narrow I've found (too narrow for my feet for sure)

Sigma have all colours in 43 except black/white

I'd certainly recommend going up a size in Giro shoes. I got a pair at the end of summer & they felt spot on, but after riding for an hour or so they cause a little pain. I reckon they are a just a touch on the small side for me It's a shame as they are really nice shoes, but sadly not what the OP is after in size, or style

There is one pair left in 44 at a decent cut price. Not first colour of choice but still worth it.

I've found the opposite. I have a pair of Giro Republic size 11 but much more like a 12. No way are they an 11. Comfy shoes but left one does creak a lot for some reason.

Size up or down, arrggghhh.

Giro shoes come up exact for me size wise (43) and Empires are comfier than a comfy thing.

Good to know as people are moaning about laces & boa systems are better for on the fly adjustment etc but if your shoes are on nice & tight but comfortable there’s no need to tighten up for a sprint finish.
