Is it just me or are Spesh in good form at the moment?

What’s changed with the shoes? Same Roost with new colours?

Ignore all that, it’s pretty obvious on Spec’s site that they are more casual than normal Roosts

I wonder how waterproof they are and if not, I reckon you could spray treat them…

I think I’d spray them in Fabsil (other brands are available) anyway to help them shrug off the wet and slop. All
Though I don’t know if they’re waterproof.

Wont be waterproof I wouldn’t think, my normal Roosts aren’t. Might give mine a good clean and a spray with something though, seems like a good idea

The shoes featured above appear to be the new 2FO Roost Canvas Mountain Bike Shoes, the emphasis being on canvas. NOT the mesh and plastic version in the trade links provided. And being canvas I’d probably keep them for dry, summer use only.
Very nice though, have looksy on the spesh site here Clip version also available. 👍
Edit: and yet the pics clearly show them covered in crap! 🙄
