road shoe question to cut the straps?
ok so here is the question, i just got some new road shoes. Gaerne Ziphers i believe and i really dig them but it seems that the straps are a bit on the long side. so is it ok to trim the velcro straps or is this an indicator that the shoes are too big?
i have never had to trim straps before on shoes but i was wondering if any one else has had to do such a thing.
have you ever had to trim straps on road shoes?

If the shoes fit otherwise I think it'd be okay, but sew the ends so they don't frey. Also leave enough room for the straps to close, not just now, but you need them longest: in the winter, two pairs of socks, swollen feet, etc.
