    Interesting color choice. So, the next question is: if I wore these shoes on my gravel bike, could I drift the turns and get my GK’s to smoke…?

    Impermeable membrane is likely to = sweaty. I’ll stick with my very breathable mt bike shoes thank you very much.

    • Dear Dennis, Thank you for your comment but, this is a new generation membrane that works three ways: dirty/water-proof and breathable… you should try it. :-).

    Those are hot. I’d give ’em a go. $212 isn’t bad, comparing them to Empires.

    They’re $176 shipped to the US from Vittoria. That’s a pretty good price.

      They do not ship from the US to EU

    I’d buy them in a heartbeat if they didn’t have laces. Nothing like dealing with the consequences of having a shoe lace get caught in between your chainring and chain to help you figure out that shoe laces on bike shoes are a really bad idea.

    Does anyone know how the Vittoria last compares to Shimano shoes? I find my s-phyres to be the most comfortable shoe I have tried (tried Sidi and Giro before). But that purple shoe loos very nice!

    • Avatar Binoculars

      Vittoria fit very confortable. I have Shimano S-Phyres in size 43 and on Vittoria i wear same size, but i feel a bit more room on toe box.
