Great shoe for indoor spinning/cycling. I am a solid size 10 but only had 10.5 in stock so ordered those...fit perfectly! No break-in period needed! Have read some comment on stiff tongue but I did not have that issue - just wore a sock that came up a bit on the ankle. Solid, strong push/pull with foot. Purchased Shimano Cleat Assembly SM-SH51, SKU: #7754170. Fit perfectly on shoe and at spin class. Solid shoe for decent price! Highly recommend!

Love these shoes. Thought they were too small at first (got my usual size) but my husband, a cyclist, informed me they should be snug. Glad I kept them. Stylish and not plastic looking like other such shoes.

I ordered them Monday night and received them in time for my Friday spin class, so excited! They fit well I ordered the same size as my workout sneaker size an 8½/40½ Euro equivalent. They are light weight and comfortable. Thanks to the previous customer review, I went ahead and ordered the Shimano cleat set. (Since it does not come with it). All in all, great purchase, I look forward to my spin classes! Whoohoo Zappos!

Wish they had a larger size in womens cycling shoes! I wear an 11 street shoe, and occasionally a 10. Decided to try the 42.5 to see if it would work since I am having a hard time finding cycling shoes for my big feet. Got my foot in them but my toes were smashed up against the ends. Otherwise these are really cute. Going to try this brand in the mens sizes instead.

Love these shoes! Fit me perfect, I am usually a 7.5/8 U.S. The sizing on cycling shoes was confusing and way different so be sure to look online at a size conversion specific to cycling shoes!

These shoes fit true to size and I totally love them. They are the first spin shoes I have ever owned and they make spin class much more engaging. I would recommend these shoes to anyone!

These are great shoes for indoor cycling. I wear an 8-8.5 normally and the 8.25 is the right fit for me. They don't run large at all I found (after returning the size 9 I originally bought). Love them!

I primarily use the Giro Riela shoes for indoor spinning classes. They are perfect! I usually wear a women's size 10 (US) and ordered the 42 (US 9.75). The shoes fit comfortably, and I haven't had a problem. Make sure that you purchase a pair of SPD cleats since they aren't included.

I wear a size 10 and the 43 (listed as "10.5") was the perfect fit. These look stylish and high-quality, and have great arch support.

I bought these for my wife for spinning. She loves them. No break-in required and the Velcro works perfect easy in and out of the shoes.

These shoes are excellent fit, size, look but this particular pair I received is damaged. Soles on spin shoes are stiff. The right shoe, the sole squeaks and gives when I'm spinning which means that something is wrong with the manufacturing of the sole. Sadly I need to return them.

I love them! I wear them for spin class and they look and feel great on. I did read the other reviews and read that they run small, to go one size up, and I am glad that I did! I am usually a size 8 and I ordered a size 9 and they fit perfectly!

Really stylish, but way too narrow. I wear a true 9.5 and this 9.75 will be fine for anyone with a narrow foot. Had to return.

True to size, comfortable yet stiff (which is what I was looking for), roomy in toe box, I like the velcro straps for adjusting!

I love these shoes for spin class! I wear barefoot running shoes for all my other activities, boy did they hurt when I wore them in spin! These have a nice stiff sole that helps you push harder and now I'm ordering the cleats to go on them so I can clip in and not use the straps! Very happy with the style and color also. Some of the others I tried were too shiny and flashy for me.

Love my new spin shoes! It really makes a difference when taking cycling class since you are more stable. Please note that this does not come with the hardware clasp so you have to purchase that separately. I normally wear a 5 1/2 and the smallest size available is 6 1/4 but it still fits just slightly loose. It's more aesthetically pleasing as other spin shoes in the market.

Fantastic - great fit, like your foot is being sucked into pure athletic comfort.
Velcro is great too, very velcroey... unlike others.
sleek look, easy to mount clips as well.SPD seem to be the best for the shoe.

I am a 7.5 in regular shoes. I tried on a size 39, and also a size 39.5, but this shoe is not for me. I don't have narrow feet, either wide, but straight even toes. I love the style since is a very good looking shoe, but comfort wise is a very low rated shoe. No matter the size, the thong is very uncomfortable, it cuts right on top of where it ends, hurtful. Size 39 crushed all my toes. Size 39.5 does not crush the toes, but pinches me on the sides, toward the toes. Bottom line, uncomfortable good looking shoes. I purchased Shimano WM51 instead, size 40 (7.8): absolutely comfortable, perfect and better priced and quality too.
I'd also recommend:

I wanted to like this shoe - but couldn't due to its tongue cutting into the front of my ankle. The tongue is very stiff and when my ankle is flexed, it pokes deep into my skin. Seems like a design flaw to me so I am perplexed as to why this isn't mentioned in other reviews.
