Incredibly comfortable! Every design feature you could want in a tri shoe: easy off/on and fantastic ventilation.
I usually wear a size 8.5 but the size 41 was a little too big for me so I had to size down. Great cycling shoes. Very comfortable.
I have always had issues buying shoes. I am a US 14 and need a wide toe box. My toes spread a lot when I step so often shoes cut into my big toe(s). ALL my local bike shops don't even come close to selling my size. I usually don't have any luck with online shoe shopping, but I took a chance and ordered these Shimano SH-R088LE Wide Fit Road Shoe. I am very pleased! fit right out of the box (size 50 EE). It took a bit to adjust the cleats for my Shimano 105 PD-5700 SPD SL Pedalpedals. Once I adjusted the cleats right, I was off and riding! The ventilation is great and I still have room to wiggle my toes! I am so glad I took the chance. Plus it's Shimano so you know you have quality equipment!
I have long, narrow feet and have difficult time, not only finding regular shoes, but finding cycling shoes was nearly impossible! These shoes are extremely comfortable and fit my size 15 foot! I recommend these shoes.
This is a great cycling shoe. The all black is extremely sharp and is well-ventilated for my ride. Cycling shoes tend to run short and narrow. I had to order a size up on the length and the width. Overall, these shoes are great.

I wanted to use my older Shimano road shoes for spin classes. This adapter saved me a lot of money and it was very easy to install. The shoes are a little clunky to walk in but just fine on the bike.
Solid shoe. I don't wear a wide running shoe but cycling shoes seem to run at a slightly skinnier width. These are wider than my previous shimano cycling shoes and work for me. I've worn a few times and they are comfortable.
I love these shoes! I needed a slightly wider shoe to fit my orthotics in and these fit the bill. I wear a regular size 11 and got the 46 Wide from Shimano and they fit perfectly! I race XC and 'Cross and these are both stiff enough for the pedals yet flexible enough to run in. Extremely comfortable for long days in the saddle and they wear well too. Can't beat the price when compared to other high end shoes. I put these up against my Sidis and Pearl Izumis any day.
These are not just comfortable biking shoes, but they're the most comfortable shoes, regardless of type, that I own. Easy on and off, and easy to secure.
I have very wide feet, so my choice of bike shoes is very limited. These fit, so I'm happy. I normally take a 10 1/2 EEE or 11 normal, and according to the chart this should have been a 45 or 46. However, 47 was the right size, so go a bit bigger than normal. The buckles and construction all seem very good. No complaints.
I got these shoes for spin class at the gym. Still getting used to them but so far I like them a lot - makes me feel more stable when riding fast in an up position. I'd say they run slightly big, but it is nice that the Velcro straps are adjustable because I have pretty narrow feet. Good value for a first time cycle shoe.
I really like these for spin. I've had them about a year and use them several times a week - they are made well and have held up to the sweating and everything else that goes with using a few times a week. The size 39 fits me perfectly and my street shoe is a size 8. I personally like the hole in the bottom, helps with air flow and my feet never feel hot.
This is my 3rd pair of Shimano bike sandals and I love them! My first pair purchased in 2005, I used to hike the trails of the Cinque Terre, Italy. The rubber in this pair finally gave out in 2013 while in Key West. I called Zappos and 24 hours later, I received this pair. Great service! I wear a size 9 women's shoe and a 41-42 Shimano sandal. This is the bike shoe I take to Europe on my bicycling trips.
I ordered different mountain bike shoes but they were a bit too narrow. Zappos exchanged them for the SH-M088s (fits perfectly) and the whole process was painless.
Wide size Shimano mtn biking shoes are excellent! Great fit and feel and they seem to be very well made. Zappos had the most sizes of this shoe in stock as I could not find my size on any of the biking web sites. Thank you Zappos!
I am totally impressed by Zappos customer service and quickness of delivery. Bravo! As for the Shimano bike shoe, the shoe is comfortable but came without the cleat that attaches to the bike. I found that rather odd considering they are useless without these. I had to go to a bike shop, buy the parts and have them installed there. An additional cost. Otherwise they are great.
Comfortable cycling shoe. I ride for over an hour at a time and the shoe is very comfortable and well vented.
Bought these as a replacement for an old pair of SH-MT41 shoes. They're almost the same shoe, except that the MT53 has a higher ankle and better ventilation. Same fit as my old Shimanos. All good.
These shoes require the purchase of a cleat assembly kit. There should be 2 metal pieces that come with the shoes and they go on the inside, underneath the shoe lining. The cleat assmembly kit, that you have to purchase in addition, has the parts you need for the outside of the shoe that will attach to the bike peddle on one side and the other side to the bottom of the shoe. You will need a small allen wrench to assemble. I did not have a small enough allen wrench and needed to borrow from someone that had an entire kit of them. It took me awhile to get everything together to actually use these shoes. As a first time buyer of bike shoes, none of this was clear to me. Hope this helps any other newbies.
I've had these shoes for about a month and I've been racing with them each weekend. The toe bed is a bit loose, but that'll just be more comfortable for those without slim feet. The ratcheting strap provides good adjustment, and the shoe is appropriately stiff. This appears to be a shoe built to last. (Though the sticker you put below the insole to keep water from entering through the stud holes is a bit phony.) I recommend this shoe, for on or off road riding. The recessed clip makes it easier to walk with, also a plus.

Good product...does what it is supposed to do...allow me to attach SPD-R cleats and use the pedals.



In 1961, a three-speed bicycle hub displayed at the New York Toy Show became the catalyst for what would eventually become Shimano American Corporation. The popularity of 20-inch wheeled bikes with hi-rise handle bars fueled a demand for multi-speed hubs and Shimano® began producing an affordable and reliable version that caught the attention of the
