I just built up my Leader 725-2011 as a speed/distance bike and wanted to go SPD on the build. So, I started hunting for some SPD compatible shoes. I searched high and low and found a lot of cool shoes but really wanted quality at a decent price. So, I came across the Chrome Kursk Pros. I get the familiar shape of a Chuck Taylor so I know how it will look with my clothing and I also get the SPD that I want. Win, Win. They came in the mail today and they are better than my expectation and my expectation was high. Corinne at Chrome said that they run a 1/2 size big. I usually wear an 11.5 and I was shipped an 11. They fit perfect. Now, time to break these bad boys in. I will follow up when they are good and used. Give me two weeks. See specs and pricing at the Chrome Website.
