I bought these because I adore my Devils and needing a new pair of road shoes, I knew I had nothing to lose!
When they arrived I was so excited. The look and presentation are fabulous. Took them out for a 10k spin, and I was dissappointed - my heels were slipping out no matter how tight my laces where done up.
So I took my new, still very shiny, Autopilots to my local shoe repair shop and asked them to punch a hole where the heel lock holes usually are in running shoes... HEY PRESTO - they became AMAZING!
Next day, I was running a 50k charity run on concrete (1km laps) and took a spare pair of shoes, just in case I had made a bad shoe decision. At the 20k point, I asked myself if I was needing to change my shoes, then realised I hadn't given them a thought until then and realised that my feet were relatively fresh. I finished the 50k in comfort, no hot spots, no blisters - Heaven!!! as someone with rhuematoid disorders, let me tell you, that is BLISS...
My new favourite road shoe.
