Re: [RBW] Re: Dromarti shoes
Hullo, I have a pair of the Dromarti shoes. They are indeed made by Marresi, even the box they come in is a Marresi box. The shoes are the cycling equivalent of dress shoes. They do not look like sport shoes by any means. You must wear Rapha or Tweed to look OK with these shoes. Beware, they run narrow. I wear SIdi's or Carnac's in 43, but to fit these shoes I needed 44's, just to get the width. Cheers! On Dec 5, 2009, at 11:13 AM, Aaron Thomas wrote: The Dromarti shoes are made by Marresi.

[RBW] Re: Dromarti shoes
I got the SPD style and the road style and absolutely love them. The fit is the same as my Sidis, but these look a lot cooler. They remind me quite a bit of my Sidis in the early 80s, but the quality of these is even higher. I think the natural leather is probably more comfortable and perhaps even form-fitting, as compared to the synthetic materials of my Sidis. And I say that as a vegetarian! Plus, they look just awesome. I wear the SPD version at my Spinning classes, too. Oh, so stylish! I'm guessing they will last forever, too.
