I just ordered some shimano xc501 and although SPD so not road specific I found the opening difficult to get my flipper in due to the wrap around design. Fit seemed ok once in for a wide foot but not as comfy sole as Giro and they are a bit narrow on me.
Not much help really. I have now returned Shimano for some Fizik and Northwave so let you know how they fit. I did order Sidi too but decided not to bother with them as only had one size so nothing to compare to
What pedals do you have? Will you ever need to walk more than a few steps off the bike?
Have you read the clipless faq thread under the beginners forum?
Bike shops aren’t.
If buying online, use a seller with free delivery and returns. Sigma sports have a very good range.
Buy your usual size and the size up return if no good
Why not look on Sigma and Velovixen to start?
Have you ridden clipless before? Do you have pedals?
£50-100 will get decent shoes but fit is more important than cost
