edkin Posted February 14, 2020 Share I'm looking for a pair of flat pedal mtb shoes for my wife. something like the 5Ten or equivalent. There are lots of stores online but the wife doesn't know her size and prefers to try the shoe on first. I cannot find a place that sells shoes like this that I can go and physically touch the shoe. I have tried Sportmans warehouse, Olympic and CWC but no luck. They all have a selection of clipless mtb shoes but not the flat pedal shoes that I'm looking for. Can anybody steer me in a direction where I can find some kind of shoe to look at in the Cape Town area? Sniffie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edkin Posted February 14, 2020 Share Try 2FO's at a Specialized store. I love mine.They look like a great shoe. I've always viewd Specialised as a superior (albeit expensive) product. I'll pop into my nearest Specialised LBS this weekend. Thanks for the tip Jako De Wet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grease_Monkey Posted February 14, 2020 Share Try 2FO's at a Specialized store. I love mine.Also very happy with my 2FOs (clipless version).

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted February 14, 2020 Share Also very happy with my 2FOs (clipless version). Although I haven't ridden Spaz flat shoes, I have ridden enough of their shoes to know they are pretty dam amazing as shoes go.I rate my 2FO's more highly than my older Freeriders ito durability and comfort... And they're a better fit, since Adidas took over and messed up the fit. Jako De Wet and Grease_Monkey 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edkin Posted February 14, 2020 Share Thanks all for the inputs Ive been scratching around and it seems that I'll be visiting Durbanville area this weekend. Its amazing that there is nothing in the southern suburbs. Freewheel Cycology in Kenilworth only has one or two sizes. None of them suitable. Revolution cycles also don't have the correct sizes although they can get for me. Tygerberg has got all the sizes I want so I'll try them and also look at the Ion at Giant Durbanville while I'm there Jako De Wet, Drumboy and ChrisF 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
