CAL) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Pearl iZUMi Men's X-Alp Elite Cyling Shoe (Apparel) I own 3 pair of PI shoes, x-road, enduro 2 and these. Out of all 3, these are definitely my favorite. I don't even want to wear the others anymore and they are still in excellent condition. I think it has to do with the new mid-sole on the shoe. Instead of the plastic nylon mid-sole like on the older models, this sole is really more like a tennis shoe all the way through. So now when I need to ride unclipped on my Time Atac Alums, I can because the mid-sole gives me grip now.Another positive thing about this shoe is that it seems a lot more stiff than the older PI shoes. With thee stiffer sole and nylon band that keeps your heal down, I get a lot more power out of these shoes than I do with my other two. The only thing I had trouble with was the tread thickness is really aggressive around cleat area. The cleat sits really recessed and makes it hard to unclip. I put CB shields under my cleats and it has help a lot...so an easy fix if you run into this... Read more 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful:  Good shoe, watch sizing, By C. E. Lyon (Kennewick, WA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Pearl iZUMi Men's X-Alp Elite Cyling Shoe (Apparel) Shoe is very comfortable until I attack standing up, then my toes jam into the front. All of my cycle shoes are size 47 and in European sizing I wear a 47 so, silly me, I ordered a 47, got a shoe with a "47" label in it but it actually fits like a 46. The fit was close enough that I can tell this will be an awesome shoe, extremely stiff all down the sole, just the right amount of flex in the toe, and excellent support and retention inside. I am now just in the middle of sending the 47's back and waiting for my 48's. Kind of a bummer having to wait again. PI X-Alp Elite, Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Pearl iZUMi Men's X-Alp Elite Cyling Shoe (Apparel) These shoes are very comfortable and easy to walk in. The traction is superb. Hands down, they beat shoes with harder plastic lugs, such as Sidi Dominators, for traction on hard surfaces. But they do have a tendency to noticibly flex when clipped in. If I could ask for a better shoe, it would be a Sidi Dominator with these soft, rubber lugs for the tread. |
