Wide fit cycling shoes - recommendations please

Post by Beancounter »

I'm currently using Fizik Vento Overcurve which are too tight and very uncomfortable after 30 minutes. Can anyone suggest a brand which are slightly wider fitting? Shoes will only be used for cycling on the road but I prefer SPDs because I don't want to have to buy new pedals too if possible.

Lake do a wide fitting, I've always bought their wide fitting winter boots so I can wear thick socks without cutting off circulation.

DHB - Wiggle's own brand - are a good fit for wide feet. I use their lace up road shoes and they are excellent.

Winter boots are Specialized Defroster and they're a great wide fit as well.

I’ve found Northwave to be wide fit, same shape and sizing as my regular shoes i.e. I take 42 in both, similar wide fit.

I have some Shimano ones* that are quite wide but due to having fucking snowshoe feet could still do with being a bit wider.


*The Mountain bike ones with soles I can walk normally on cos I can't be done with the spazzy roadbike only ones.
Maybe if I was fast I'd give a shite about the extra 0.00001% of edge the roadbike ones gave me but I'm a long way off fast so have bigger fish to fry.
