    Gals,

    The Mavic shoes have been getting great reviews for Bikeradar as well. And Crankin, the frogs do work with the Scorpios. My frogs don't work too well with my Shimano sandals either. The Scorpios for 2013 are black and white, thank goodness a break from the white and silver.

    I wear Frogs with my Scorpios as well, they work fine. I wish the 2013 version were something other than white though - SO tired of white bike shoes - and I remain perplexed why mtb shoes would be white anyway.

    4. I have my old Sidis up at my summer house. My newer Sidis and my Keen Sandals are here at home. I also have Sidi winter shoes which I'll break out as soon as the temps are below 40. I have Frogs on all of them, never a problem. I still need another pr of Keen sandals to take to the other house.

    I wish TE would work with Mavic to do their next pair of custom colored mtn bike shoes.

    Looks like PI has some new offerings:

    I have 2 prs. in 1 city and another 2 prs. in another city. In each city, 1 pr. is an older pr. that I wear when it looks rainy/about to rain while 2nd pr. is not as old and not worn down.

    It works for me. So I guess I have 4 prs. which means I buy a pr. of shoes every few years.

    I forgot to answer the original question. I have road shoes and mtn. shoes. 1 pair of each. They are essentially the same shoe (LG T-Flex 300 and CFS-300).

    Are the Scorpios winter shoes?
    I need winter shoes/boots that are women specific size 6, that will work with Frogs. The PI Gore Alp-X that I bought 2 years ago had to be cut out around the cleat area to fit the Frogs and my left foot is constantly flying out of the pedal, especially on climbs. I can't deal with that.
    My regular road and mountain shoes are Shimano and are fine. I wore Sidis for years until I figured out the toe box is just too small. I have a narrow heel, but a lot of my foot roblems are gone now, or at least minimized with the Shimano shoes.

    Sadly they are not. However, they work fine for me in the winter with the combination of toe covers/PI Barrier shoe covers and chemical warmers. I don't really road ride below freezing however due to my cold-air asthma trigger and I seem to remember that you do. Winter shoes seem to be getting more difficult to find, at least last year there seemed to be fewer options available in the market.

    This would be great! Perhaps TE will take this under consideration. I really like their shoes and they are more affordable than Sidi for the most part.

    According to Beck's post, Mavic makes a winter shoe, I didn't know that. This link shows a Mavic winter mtb shoe, I don't know anything about them however. They give both men's and women's sizes for this shoe, and it goes pretty small.

    Catrin, the link just says "men's winter mountain bike shoes."

    Perhaps the sizing chart is simply the stock sizing chart they always post, I don't know. If the men's sizes go small enough they might work.

    3 pairs SPD and a 5.10. When I don't ride, I wear the 5.10 or my running shoes.
