Solid shoe . Was concerned with wire tie, but that has improved over the years. Also can buy replacement components from Sidi

Show is a great fit and feels like a leather glove. Love the carbon composite sole. Great exchange of power from the foot to the pedal.

I have always been a Sidi fan for MTB shoes and this is my first time with their road shoes. These have not disappointed me. Fit is spot on! have narrow feet and generally have a heard time getting shoes to fit snug. No issues here. Minimal heal lift when walking. The stiffness is perfect along with the power transfer into the pedal stroke. Nice and light, barely know they are on. With hundreds of trainer miles in this late winter early spring I can't wait to get these outside.

Review by Fatboy
I am an avid recreational road cyclist who rides 3 to 4000 miles per year, with lots of climbing. I have somewhat narrow feet and only Sidi and Giro brands work for me due to their narrower lasts compared with other brands. This is the third pair of Genius I have owned, and the first with a Boa-style mechanism. I like the fit and stiffness, which is why I keep buying them. One complaint I have about all of the Sidis is that they have a rather rough and unfinished interior. This may be fine for hard competitive riding, but I find them uncomfortable enough that I wear them only with thicker socks and custom insoles. My Giro Empires (lace-up), on the other hand, are much friendlier on my feet due to their softer interior lining. Also, the Techno 3 dial is somewhat awkward to use. I understand that this is Sidi�s version of a Boa dial, and operates somewhat differently. Neither of these issues is a dealbreaker for me, as the shoe still provides a solid connection to my pedals, which is the primary function I want them to perform.

The Sidi Genius 10 is a very good shoe. The shoe is slightly long (compared to other older Sidi shoes same size), but good width for average foot sizes. The overall fit is very comfortable and gets snug with the Boa tightened to individual preference. Break-in period is minimal and after a few rides the shoe feels even better. Heel stays locked in, there is a good shaped foot bed that is comfortable and doesn't feel heavy. Overall, I'd have to give this 5 stars and zero complaints. My feet are very happy training and racing in this shoe.

I was looking for a white, Sidi shoe. I have worn black for a while, and lately have had problems with my feet getting really hot on hot days. I thought there was a reason why the pros wore white (other than it looks good) and I like how the white shoes looked. The thing is, they are much cooler. There is a little more area in the toe box, and I think that getting insoles might take up that space. Anyways, I do like the shoes, they look great, the price was very good and they have that Sidi quality and fit that I have come to prefer.

Not only very stylish, but a great fit and design that will have you leading out front on your group ride.

I normally purchase the higher end Sidi shoes; however found these on sale and purchased them. Out of the box, extremely comfortable and fit amazing... highly recommend if you dont want to shell out for Sidi's higher end shoes.
Review by Easygoing
I'm very easy going and really enjoy a great product. Was a little nervous about the price. Had been watching the shoes for awhile. They went on sale thought I would give them a try. I have no complaints and very happy with the fit, feel and comfort. Had them a little over 4 months. Ride around 100 miles a week. I would recommend the shoe and buy them again when needed.

I wore my first ones out, tried a few other brands I like but came back and purchased another pair of these.

Sidi shoes are the best... broke them in the other day... extremely comfortable...

Once you remember to lift up the adjustment tabs before you put on the shoes, you will really like them. The release buttons make it a breeze to take them off.

This is my 4th pair of Sidi Shoes, they have excellent quality and durability.
Review by Ed Ramirez
The only improvement this shoe can use is a replace toe pad.
