Just spent a few hours scouring the web for a source of leather cycling shoes (more Oxford-like, less perforated Detto-like) and it appears there is no one in the US importing these and a few places overseas aren't shipping to the US right now. Awaiting an answer from 2Velo about shipping to the US. Too bad my feet are generally "average" size about a 43-44 because there is no shortage of options in the 36-40 range out there on the used market. Having a cobbler modify a pair of cap toe dress shoes locally is going to put me well in the range of the cost of a brand new pair of real cycling shoes. Just can't win in this climate.
