Those Vittorias really bring back memories of metal cleats nails and above
all comfort. I started riding those in the late '60s and until the final
pair gave up the ghost have yet to experience a more comfortable shoe.
Also, I just stumbled onto another blast from the past on Ebay. Puma was
OK, I confess, I'm old enough to have owned these shoes! But, if memory
(not to be trusted) serves me right, my first pair of vittorias wasn't
until the early 80's. I'm a size 47-49, so these are a non starter.
I have been walking around, indoors, this winter in a pair of NB minimalist
Out of the box evalgreat fit w/ medium weight socks and room for
thicker ones. Toe box is roomy. Some reviews said the shoe was
narrow, but I don't notice anything unique. I wear a 45 in Shimano
shoes and ordered a 45 in these. Initially I think these will be
exellent shoes. In all the
Thanks. I ended up ordering the Exustar SRT 707 on the interwebz.
The brown truck should deliver them today. I'll try and post details
after some evaluation.

Hi Kris,

I would consider the Vittorias beacause I like the traditional look -
- similar to my old Detto Pietros. If anyone knows a source for large
sizes (48 and up), kindly post a link.
thanks

Kris,
I'm using the Vittoria 1976 shoes with Speedplay Frogs. I like them
very much. Elliott Bay Bicycles in Seattle carries them.

boy at that price the Dromarti's would be my choice. You can even get the
Sportivo with recessed spd cleat so you actually walk around. Those brown
ones are pretty slick.

I love those Sportivos, but don't want to take the chance of wrong size on
them.

Bruce and Patrick, thanks for the recs and links. Patrick, with your
comment about 44s v 45s would your say the Exustars run small? I wear
a 45 all day with Shimano shoes to the point that I don't try them
on.

I would say they run normal. I've found that as I age my feet have
slightly grown and I now am on the cusp between 44 and 45 for most
shoes, while I used to be a size smaller. If you are happy with
Shimano 45s, I'd be inclined to think that 45 Exustars would work,
too. My 44s feel much the same as
