Shopping online for winter cycling footwear - Springfield Cycling See the first article within this series here: Choosing a design of footwear. Since the first winter cycling footwear article appeared in February, we've had one good snowfall, that has almost entirely melted away during the past two days of temperatures in the mid-sixties. Excellent cycling weather, even without winter footwear, and considering how mild this coming year has been, now's the time for you to negotiate a good price over a pair of cycling shoes for pick up. Shopping for shoes online Size. It's recommended that you buy your winter shoes greater than usual, from half a size to two sizes larger than your street shoes, to allow for thicker socks or liner inserts. Weight. One reason road cyclists change to cycling shoes, besides the efficiency of locking to the pedal, is a lightweight shoe. When evaluating models, check the specifications for your weight from the shoe. Typical heavy boots of the type worn by workers in refrigerated or unheated warehouse spaces, for instance, while ideal for working on ice cold floors, are too heavy for some road cycling. But as Pedal People Constantine and Wergin have realized, in case your cycling keeps you outdoors for hours, and cost is really a factor, industrial workboots would be the best solution. Ease/Speed. The shoelaces, drawstrings, Velcros, and the like on a boot or shoe might be too difficult to complete up while wearing gloves. Is that a problem? If you won't get to try boots on face-to-face, read reviews that touch on the simplicity adjusting, wearing, and heading out the footwear, and whether any laces trail and need to be tucked up. Hot Brands In roundups with the best winter cycling footwear, brands that come up repeatedly include Lake, Shimano, and Sidi. On Bicycling.com, the Shimano MW80 cycling boot was most lauded with the four reviewed for their warmth in snow and beneath the coldest road cycling conditions. Note that they 'are only appropriate for four-bolt, SPD-style cleats, so you'll want to switch pedals to work with these boots while riding your road bike.' This shoe is among three offered by Winter Cycling Shoes and is also only $198, below the $230 for auction on Bicycling.com. On the most visited page, your website owner recommends his very own Northwave Celsius 'Artic' Gore-Tex cycling shoe for mountain biking, at $179.99. This Gore-Tex shoe review praises the Sidi Diablo GTX ($320) being a very light shoe, and warm and dry. The Gore-Tex is often a big characteristic on this Livestrong article, which suggests that 'Many cycling shoes use rubber or composite soles with holes for mounting pedal attachment cleats; due to this, few cycling shoes remain waterproof when submerged.' The review recommends the Specialized Defroster MTB ($165) shoe for wet weather, less so for cold. The praise is repeated by BikeRadar, who admits that this Shimano is often a better winter shoe as well as a great all-around cycling shoe. Other talking points are how easy they're to take on and off, especially while wearing gloves. The Northwave CELSIUS J GTX ($199) shoes are advertised as developing a special technology for lacing them up, the SLS or 'Speed Lace System.' Another Northwave fan: ProBikeKit Team. Cyclocross Magazine writer jliberles writes if you need shoes to face up to severe the winter season, the Lake MXZ302 ($250) is up to the challenge. Compare for the Bicycling.com rated Lake CX140 ($190), which gets good reviews but is not viewed as strong a competitor for really severe weather. |
