I can't find the model name. It says Body Geometry. They're size 48-wide! They are SPD. They have very high arches. The arches are so high that they feel wrong. But I realize they allow me to distribute the pressure over a wider area. It's really revolutionary for me. I found that I'm stronger than I knew, because I can put pressure down without pain. My podiatrist told me to move my cleats back. I now have my arch over the pedal spindle instead of the balls, which feels weird. I've damaged my feet by pedaling wrong. Now the only problem is that I can't ride comfortably without these shoes and cleats. I get on Citi Bike with street shoes, and I can't get out of the habit of putting the balls over the spindle, which hurts.
Another thing I like is that the cleat is actually recessed. It doesn't touch the ground and grind as it did on other shoes.
