    Road shoes

    I had a bunion on lft foot removed surgically (they broke foot to restructure) I have some pretty picky feet, if they are not happy, I am not happy period, end of story...
    I have the Shimano R215 and love them (with Ultegra SPD-SL pedals)
    My foot is wide and have the ability to adjust the shoe as I need, depending on morning or evening ride when the foot is more prone to being swollen (evening) they are adjustable to this. Plus they have a special stretch to the material. ok, I just took a measurement with ruler and stepped my right foot onto it with the widest part of foot measured across and with weight bearing on foot and it is 4 inches.

    Shimano R215 is a wider shoe, but also has a wider shoe in this model as well, looking into roadbikereview.com
    here was another recommendation from another customers review.

    These Specialized Roadshoes are compatible with Speedplay it indicates, whereas the Shimano 215 is best using SPD-SL pedals or Look.
    Take into consideration the costs of new shoes and pedals if the shoe is not compatible with your pedals your using now.
    Hope this helps...-AutumnBreez
