I really like the look of these shoes, and they are at the top of the list to replace my Shimano AM7s when they eventually die. They tick what I'm after: not disco slippers, a cleat that goes far back, available without BOA, and (apparently) stiff enough to be good to pedal in.
But good God, does it ever bother me to read "optimized for all \[pedals, cleats, engagement\]"... Like, it really irritates me. By definition, optimized is not universal. Try harder, words matter.
