Specialized Sonoma

I have been looking for a new pair of spd compatible commuter shoes and I think I settled on the Sonoma from specialized, but I wanted to see if any others had reviews or other suggestions for a comfy walkable (short distances) pair of shoes for commuting.

Any suggestions?

I use that shoe and I like it very much. I got it because of the smooth sole, thinking it would be easier to get my cold weather booties over the shoe. It is an easy to walk in shoe. Every morning I go to the grocery store for my two bagels, chocolate donut and a chocolate milk. I have no problem walking on the tile floor of the store, even when wet.

It is very comfortable for me, they seem to be a bit wider than other shoes I have tried. Specialized shoes do run about a size small. If you wear an 43, get a 44.

Great shoe, I did have a problem withthe sole on my first pair. I called Specialized and they told me to go to the lbs and they would exchange them. No reciept...no questions. I am happy that they stand behind their product as I am a size 14 and very few shoes are made in their size.
