looks down at feet
Yes, arrived today – CRC have them at a bargain price. They are pretty small – I ordered a size 38 (same as my current DX shoes) but they felt a little cramped when trying them on (hence why I’m sat here wearing them instead of my slippers, hoping they’ll stretch a tad). I had considered sending them back to swap for the next size up but as they cost so little, by the time I’d paid for return postage, I guess any money saving would be lost. Trying them on without the insoles, they had plenty of room, so I’ve trimmed the insoles a little (they were pretty bulky, extending up around the heel area, and they feel pretty much spot on now.
Soles are stiff (and come with an even stiffer plastic insole plate which you can fit if you wish) but rubber seems grippy on flat pedals . . . in the kitchen at least. I’ll wear them to work tomorrow (while they’re still white) and report back on their waterproofing (or lack of).
