Is there a reason.....?

Is there any reason why he's wearing an Ergo2 on the left and a Genius 6.6 on the right?

I've never seen this happen before.

Probably a superstition.

how the heck can you tell?

I never would have noticed had it not been pointed out, but the buckles are clearly different -- the right shoe has a black background, the left, white.

maybe the different shoes fit each of his feet better. my left is slightly bigger than my right. hmm maybe i should try that...

the buckle straps are replaceable, i'm guessing they just didn't have a matching one.

+1 - That' just a different colored arch compression strap. The replacements are readily available....in black.....and usually that's it.

So same shoe just one is sporting a replacement strap.

Now go back to looking at the bikes....not the rider's feet. Sheesh...

Lol i didn't notice it too...maybe he lost his left 6.6 and his right ergo.:D

One leg from each disappearing twin.

The right shoe has a silver toe, the left doesn't.

I'd say that it does. Looks like bad angle and lighting in this picture.

Maybe you ought to brighten your monitor a bit.

One thing different, his first velcro is tighten inward instead.

Notice how the yellow stripes show in my OP picture.

They're definitely different shoes. Regardless of color, there is only one velcro strap on his left shoe. Instead, it's that little band tighten thingy. Maybe it's a way to save a few bucks without getting too carried away.

^ he's right, they're definitely 2 different shoes...

on a side note, those Ergo 2 Carbon's are way too hot for words...

I agree. Those are some hot shoes. But they seem to me to be like designer fashions - when a model has them on the runway, they (and she) look great. But, if I were to actually see them out on the road, they may be overpowering. Maybe not. They're gorgeous.

Agreed, but already got an Ergo 1 and I am VERY satisfied so far.

what I wanna know is why he looks like he's about to cough up a hairball :p

I agree completely. Ordered my Ergo 2 Carbon's about an hour ago. :D
