SPD INTRO
ShimanoM072 shoes are SPD cyclingshoes so here's a quick explanation of what SPD is.
For those who may not know SPD stands for Shimano Pedaling Dynamic. All very nice I hear you say, so to explain they are Clipless pedals. Basically you get a pair of shoes, bolt on some clips to the shoes, get a pair of SPD pedals which are like a clamp, step on the pedals and your feet are locked to the pedals. Rotating your feet to the side then releases you from the pedal. (not as dangerous as it sounds).
GENERAL
Shimano mountain bike shoes have been around for a number of years now and in my opinion if you are a user of SPD pedals then you can't beat Shimano PSD shoes for reliability. I have used number if different types over the years, most of which I cant remember the name off and ones that usually found the bucket because they ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Shimano MO72
Advantages: Stylish, durable, comes with cleats for clipping in, you can actually walk in them off the bike Disadvantages: You won't be accepted by 'roadies' in them, can't fit waterproof over shoes over them

In order to save a bit of time in the shop I did a bit of research on various cycling forums to see what other riders use. After a couple of hours I noticed the same name came up over and over again and this was Shimano.

If you think that people who have this shoe are maniacs or sportsmen's only - you are wrong. That type of shoe (with cleats) is the best possible solution for you, your cycling comfort and safety.
Got them for over one year now and they are still in one piece and perfect condition. I had a number of serious accidents, but thanks idea of cleating into pedals- I went through with cuts and bruises only.
Just imagine yourself commuting on a busy road and accidently someone bumps your rear wheel. Normally you would felt over or fall on his mask. Not when having them. They will hold you on bike or help to accumulate most of force. I mean not shoes itself They won't let you leave bicycle unless you want it or force is so strong.
All things am telling you now taking from my own cycling experience so I believe that is ...
