Mountain biking shoes

what shoes are you guys wearing?

i have been a little stingy with the funds over the past few years on MTB shoes.
if they worked ok, i kept them for a long time.

i had a pair of Shimano m181 (i think) that i have worn for years. they are finally falling apart.

ordered these from PricePoint.com

Shimano M240L

hoping they last me a while.

was going to go with Sidi, but kept reading reviews of the quality not being what it used to, so stuck with Shimano

 

I rock 2 pairs of specialized shoes for mountain bike and road too. I have found they fit me very well because they are slighlty more narrow.

 

Specialized Pro Carbon Mtn.

For my piece, an all around good shoe. Fast break-in, very stiff sole, and breathable. Had some trouble with the plastic surrounding the ratchet strap catching on crank arms. My local shop replaced with no questions the first time. When I was on a road trip it happened again and I just yanked the piece off, all better.

 

Bontrager RXL mountain.... super light and comfy

 

I bought some Diadora x-trail with carbon fiber soles a couple months ago. They were on sale from nashbar for like 60 bucks. They have been good shoes. I also have a pair of specialized shoes that are a bit more flexible for the rides that require a bit of hiking.

 

I have had a pair of Addidas mountain bike shoes that have lasted me the last 7 years. Got them on either www.nashbar.com or www.performancebike.com. cant remember which...use them both a lot.

 

i saw some Bontrager shoe at the LBS, did not know they even made MTB shoes....other than the ones that go on my rims

my buddy wears some addidas and he likes them alot.
