Already fitted the cleats and Im glad I didn't size size down by a half as these are a little tighter than the RW86 shoes that I have.

In all honesty, don't like the look of them as they look like corrective walking shoes but they do a job and they are the better looking of the brands IMOH. :D
 
Got to say these are great shoes! Rode the Ekiden in them with summer socks on and they were toasty warm!

One problem however is the water resistant cuff rubs against the zip of the Roubaix tights, looks like I have a snake bite on my Achilles tendon.

Workaround.... were socks under the tights not over.
 
Yeah, I'm quite happy as well! They are definitely warm and comfortable!

Regarding the cuff, the first time I wore the SH-RW80's I really snugged them down, but I learned quickly that for me the best thing was to wear the cuffs as loose as I could that would just barely prevent any gaps around the ankle... problem solved!

I recommend these for anyone that needs a winter SPD-SL road shoe and has had it with booties!
 
Agreed..... no need for booties with this bad boys.

Oh and for those power houses out there the flex is very very minimal.
