Best mtb shoes I’ve ever had hands down. Great protection without being too stiff, you get all the support and bike feel you need. Also fit my feet better than most brands.

Very happy with my purchase. Good durable shoe. Especially like the enclosure for the laces. Feel this will be a good shoe for colder riding.

These shoes are very comfortable, having the cleats installed when they arrive in the box is awesome. My only complaint is the last eyelet on the outside of the shoes. After using for quite sometime it wears out and widens the hole and becomes stuck on the rivet. I am on my second pair i get about 1.5 to 2 years of use. I would recommend some sort of sleeve for the last eyelet on the outside of the shoe.

I love my new CB shoes. They are comfortable, but stiff, the lace pocket is genius, and they are really well made! Also as a female rider, I like color, but nothing too bright. I've been riding Crank Brother pedals for years, and this is the first shoe that I haven't had to adjust the cleat to get it just right. They were perfect out of the box. Thanks Crank Brothers!
I love these shoes! Wore them for my first ride of the season this weekend and they are super comfortable right out of the box. I really like the stiffer sole and the gripper silicone at the heel, tongue is very cushy and I like the little pocket for the laces. Crankbrothers CS told me they run a little small so I got a 1/2 size larger than I normally would and the 5.5 is perfect (I wear Euro 37, wmn's US 6.5). The color is awesome too!
Incredibly comfortable cycling shoe. Match system is perfect
Just got these, but so far so good. They are comfortable and keep my feet warm while cycling in temps down to the 30s (F). Haven't tried them in cooler weather as that's my limit for outdoor riding for now :)
Perfect fit and great looking. Along with my new Crankbrother Mallet E LS pedal they work so perfect. Been using SPD clipless for a long time, why not try out Crankbrothers pedals and shoes. Oh boy I love the difference, I love that it's so easy to clip out. Using both pedal and shoes make it even better because they work so well together. You can't wrong with both of and I love it!
Really comfy. Ordered a size smaller and they fit perfect. Love the colour!
The shoe that you need for a comfy ride. But, badly, I just broke my femur on my first ride so I can't wait to retry them in three months.
