I’ve tried a lot of shoes but many are too narrow for my wide feet. These shoes fit perfectly (correct size) and are very light, stiff, and still comfortable to walk in. I mainly use them for gravel w/ Shimano M520 pedals but I’ve also run them on my MTB with M8180 XT pedals. I wouldn’t recommend them for enduro riding since the toe protection and walkabilty are not on par with MTB gravity shoes, but for gravel and XC I don’t think you can do better at this price point. Also easy to clean!
