I have used Specilized MTB shoes for several years. The come with both laces and raised sole so I do not walk like a duck wearing them. I'm a Roadie through and though but find the comfort of the shoe both off on the bike great I also feel that they have a stiffer sole than the Shimano's that I was using before. They will give you a chose of using laces or just Velcro straps. I use the straps only and agree with Bob that on a long ride I have had to adjust the straps (while riding) as the feet change size. Specilized shoes were purchased at Rebec & Kroes 1695 Bank St. Cheers :-) James E-mail : [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web : http://www.mondenet.com/~jimckap Mailing Information page : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Home Page http://www.yahoogroups.com/members/c-kap Subscribe : http://www.yahoogroups.com/subscribe/c-kap Unsubscribe-Send E-mail to : [EMAIL PROTECTED] You must be a C-KAP member to subscribe as this is a closed mailing page. > Hello one and all, > > Does anyone know of a brand name[s], even a model, of Look compatible > road shoes that use laces? > > My old pair of Adidas Eddy Merxx are quickly deteriorating, after > many years of faithful use, and I can't seem to find a suitable > replacement pair that use laces.
