^^ I've read really good reviews on those. What happened in your experiences that would lead you to dumping them?

The tongue on those shoes makes blisters on the top of my feet. I'm not in love with the wire fastening system either, it seems to be more gimmick than benefit.

The Wire is Ok.
But the Tiny Heal Pads can cause a twisted Ankle real quick

Specialized has helmets in a color that is a good match.

Will they withstand t-boning a car at 31 mph while negotiating a roundabout against traffic?

Never used the wire boa closures. What I do love about all four pair of my Sidi shoes is the overall build quality. Also the plastic rear heal wrap-a-round gives them greater life. Same with my DMT shoes. I will say that the DMTs are by far the more comfortable shoe for my feet. They simply fit as if they are hand made for me. The Sidi megas are good but almost a little too mega - the non mega are a light too narrow.

Those are really sweet shoes. I would be curious to hear your feeback about the wire closures.
I hope that you enjoy them.

So i bought the shoes and you're bashing me for buying the shoes ?
Ever hear of paypal ?
How much is in your account ?
We just got 4 inches of snow today, neighbors falling tree limb ripped my cable line off the house from the pole.
60 degrees by Sunday, prolly gonna be sloppy wet.
