Thanks for reviewing these shoes! They look interesting, but after your review I think I'd prefer the more flexible GR7 (another super helpful review). When I first switched to flats I was wearing Vans, and I think I still prefer grip that comes from a flexible sole that wraps around the pedal rather than a stiff sole and super grippy rubber (Even on 4-hour rides with a ton of pedaling). Honestly, I'd still be wearing Vans if they were much wider and had some toe protection.
