Any long term reviews? Im coming from a pair of size 14 Minnar Vxi's (which absolutely suck). Seeing as shops refuse to stock my size can anyone confirm the fit from 5.10 to these? They come in a 14, just hoping they aren't too small.
Specialized 2fo shoes
i can't comment on those shoes … however my other spec shoes have fit on the large size vs other brands. i was on a 44 for the spec shoes vs 45.5 on my giros. YMMV
I found specialized fit true to my shoe size, the fit is wide in toe box [HTML_REMOVED] narrow in heel which fit perfect for me
If you got wide feet don't get 2fo.
i have a pair of the 2fo's in size 48 which i had to special order of course. i love them. going back to flats and couldn't stand my 5.10 impacts. too boxy and a bit short, hot and bulky. the spec shoes are awesome. fairly stiff, great to walk in, excellent fit for my mid volume foot. i adjust the fit somewhat with different footbeds. they are just long enough, any shorter wouldn't work. look good and very rubbery and functional. no leather. they are excellent in the wet. even the laces are excellent. the ONLY thing i don't love is the inner fabric is quite coarse. they made these shoes to be both light and to absorb very little water (unlike the pure sponges that are impacts) and they did so by making the lining fabric mesh like. i have had to put a piece of tape in one shoe to smooth it out where it wraps around the top of my foot when tightened down. they also have few seams and are simply and sturdily made. very happy with them so far.

This is just what one wants to read the afternoon after just purchasing a new pair of impacts :D :D
^I don't know the new Impact XVIs are pretty good. Feel like they are made of Croc foam or something.
Old ones I wasn't shit hot about though.
Why slag free swag?:rolleyes:
ummm, as your doctor i recommend against riding with a scaphoid fracture.
night and day difference between the 1st version of IMPACTS and the latest and greatest XVI,s Impacts , my kid has both and prefers the new version , way lighter and more comfortable
