Customer Reviews Shimano RC1 Cycling Shoe

Fit seems fine, will need to cycle with them for a while to decide how much I like them. Edge of tongue is a bit stiff and digs into the top of foot if sock is not covering it.

I needed to replace my Peloton shoes, and after reading lots of reviews settled on these as they were reported to be slightly wider (but not a true wide). I am a 9.5/10 and wear a 41 in the Peloton shoes. I debated over getting the 42 or 43 in these based on reviews. Ended up going with the 43, they are a bit bigger than the Peloton 41’s, however I think the 42s would have been too small for me. They are slightly wider than the Peloton’s and I am grateful for that across the top of the foot, but I do need to tighten the top velcro strap down quite a bit and it takes some muscle, hopefully this will break in with time. They are light weight but supportive, with good transfer of power.

I purchased these shoes for using on my Peloton indoor bike. This brand does always seem to run small - I purchased a full size larger than my normal size. They work for the purpose intended.

The shoe fit was true to size. There is no cushioning in the shoe which made it somewhat uncomfortable.

I bought my first Shimano cycling shoes 12 years ago. They held up well for all these years of spin class but it’s time to get a new pair. I wanted to stick with Shimano since I’ve had such good luck with my first pair. If you’re getting these for spin class, you’ll need an adapter for the cleat. But that isn’t my issue. When I tried them on at home it felt like the size was smaller. I wear size 10 shoes so I ordered a 43. During spin class I could feel my toes pressed against the front of the shoe. By the end of class my toes were numb. I’d go up a size but 43 is the largest.

The fit was a bit small. However the most disturbing part was they were used - the bottoms of the shoe were all scratched up from someone else's clips. Luckily they were too small for me so I returned them.

So I like the look and feel of the shoe. I normally wear a 10 and the best size they had was 10.5 which felt correct. Unfortunately I thought I had read these would be compatible with a SPD 2 hole cleat which they aren’t so I had to return them.

These seemed like really well made cycling shoes but way too small. Need to go up at least 1 size, maybe 2, over other brands.

Gorgeous shoes - recipient loved them but even ordering a larger size, the shoes were way too small - both in length and width. I just don't think the style will fit her feet, so I would like a full refund. Thank you.

The shimano sho has been my go-to brand and this show was a disappointment. The top of the shoe cuts into the front of my ankle. It hurts in the natural pedal stroke. Sadly disappointed and after trying two versions of Shimano shoes, I will have to shop another brand.

Very narrow and not true to size. (Runs small) Extremely uncomfortable to cycle in. Ordered 2 different sizes.
