The time has come to replace my trusty shoes, and was thinking of heading down the lace up route for something a bit different, anyone use Giro Empires etc?

I knew this forum was run by the previous generation, but come on guys.
Good enough for Merckx, good enough for me then!
Always liked these, not cheap though.

Bought myself a pair of Scott RC Lace shoes, picked them up for only £90 instead of the £200 RRP, gotta say they are very comfy and look pretty good too 
lace up shoes always were comfy…must be excellent with better quality manufacture/modern materials…
Rapha? They look lovely
Yes. Got them at quite a good discount. I loved their Climber shoes (made by Giro), but my son stole those and I bought Lake 332 shoes to replace them. Kangaroo leather…
Wiggins and the British track team use(d) laces - it’s more aero apparently.
