Needed a smart shoe for urban riding wear since my full length riding boots become too cumbersome for use around the city Aesthetics - they look fabulous and the quality of materials and workmanship is excellent Fit - I wear a size EU46 in my Dainese Torque 3 and TCX RT Race Pro along with my Dainese Dinamica short boots. Ordered a EU46 in these and while they are comfy I would have been better off with a size smaller. Keep it in mind when ordering. Comfort - Very comfortable with good ventilation. Easy enough to put on and take off and wear for extended periods during the day even off the bike. They are stiff enough from a safety PoV and arent as soft as a sneaker.
