SPD Shoes

[Mike_P]

Shimano do SPD adaptors for 3 hole road bike shoes so whatever road shoe takes your fancy plus a set of these

Plus one for the Bontrager Solstice shoes ~ I've got two pairs.

I ride these and find them to be excellent. Go one size up if you have broad feet. I moved on from a similar style to your current shoes and feel it was a positive step.

They look more like a road shoe than the image suggests

They are a bit like my Shimano shoes. Road shoe-like from above, but they have the chunky soles too.

I'm another who prefers the versatility of SPDs on all my bikes - I wear a pair of Shimano RT4s, touring shoes like the RT5s above but with laces so they look even more like normal shoes.

Pretty sure Shimano have stopped making them now but the DHB 'Dorica' shoes in either MTB or road variety (with or without knobbles) are very similar.

Very happy with my Shimano XC3 SPDs.

Got them from Sigma when they were on offer but don't seem to be any deals atm.

My god, some touring shoes are ugly.

Giro look smart though

These are not the exact ones I've got (mine are 2 velcro straps but otherwise the same), but if you've got wide feet I'd defo go for Lake. I'm hoping to upgrade to the BOA version next year. The only trouble I have is usually having to wait because my size is out of stock. The MX range are 2 bolt SPD and there are a few option to choose from depending on your budget.

Yes they're not bad!

I only mention it as even though I wear clipless on road bikes, I simply wear normal hiking shoes on flat pedals for touring. Then last week I had a very slight slippy shoe / pedal interface moment and I considered putting SPDs on.... the choice of touring shoes on some sites brought to mind those special built up shoes that the poor lad with the limp in your school used to wear.

I do like the Shimano MT3's though:

These Mavic's, just reviewed on RoadCC are bloody lovely.
Tempted to open the wallet

Please tell me they are wide fitting ? What they need is to be attached to a nice Mason Resolution 😁

Cycling shoes generally are to be fair...
