Re: Hot spots in the pad of my foot
I had a patient who had swithced to those shoes and had some issues with hot foot. The solution was to go back to his old shoes. The stiffness in some of the new shoes and pedals is so much harder on the feet that they can compress the foot and cause lots of issues. check out this article I did on pezhttp://www.pezcyclingnews.com/?pg=fullstory&id=4249

Re: Hot spots in the pad of my foot
I've found Specialized shoes comfortable and less 'hot'(I've had Shimano shoes before that). They have the metatarsal(sp) raised section in the middle of the inner sole and a little bit wider than some.

Re: Hot spots in the pad of my foot
if SIDI's are worth the money i'd surely like to know
and are speedplay pedals worth their rep in the pro peleton?

I still use SPD, but use a good quality SIDI shoe. This has made a difference. Also, a big help was my switching to Shimano PD-A520 road pedal. It gives a little bigger base than the standard spd pedals, which helps dispurse the pressure. |
