Giro Republic LX Shoes Sepia Leather/Black, 45.0 – Men’s
@ Giro’s Republic LX Shoes offer the perfect combination of functionality and style, providing you a smooth transition from the bike to the street. Giro gave the new Republic LX a touch of sophistication with the beautiful leather upper and micro-suede heel counter.

The Republic LX features a lace closure, and the injected-nylon outsole (with 2-bolt cleat mount) gives you a solid platform for pedaling. And for those moments off the bike, Giro has integrated replaceable walking pads into the outsole to keep you safe and comfortable.

I just got these and love the classic look,
They are true to size, in that I’m an 8 1/2 D men’s and wear a 42 in other Giro shoes. Some charts list 8.5 at 41,but in Giro for me it is 42,so these are
consistent. I actually ordered a 43 to be sure and it was too big, those were returned. The one complaint is the rubber “sliver soles” beside the cleat area interfere with engaging the spd cleat. I usually position my cleat as far back as possible or maximum efficiency, but had to go back home on my first outing to move the cleats forward so I could clip in, and even then it was a struggle. I bought another pair of Giro riding shoes around the same time and have no trouble with them. I may have to shave the edges around the cleat to ease engagement.
