Used to be a shoe made for spinning classes,
kind of frankenstein's monster's boots looking
because it made a rubber rim edge, around the 3 bolt look pedal cleat , to walk on floors, indoors,

Shimano licences to copy, that cleat to make their pedals of that look type..

I expect the fitter and perhaps the fitting system he was trained to use ,

Is biased towards Road Competitor's fits , which is not your style of riding ..


You Choose.. for yourself... OK?
