I will never use Specialized for anything again. Oh, and by the way I was riding a Specialized road bike at the time. It is long gone now.
Sorry to hear that your experience with shoes has turned you off an excellent company with great products. You really ought to have sold the shoes or given them away though as the Body Geometry shoes work well for the vast majority. Sorry to hear you were an exception.
