Top schoen!
Prachtige schoen! Niet het slofje qua pasvorm waar ik op had gehoopt maar prima pasvorm. Zeer nauwkeurig te verstellen met de draaisluitingen, beetje vaster/losser tijdens het rijden. Ik ben voor de witte gegaan. Risico met vlekken, die er na 5 ritten natuurlijk ook op zaten, maar prima schoon te maken met een sopje. Lekkere harde zool, goede krachtoverbrenging. Top schoen!

Great Shoes and no issue with the tongue
I bought these with a little trepidation given some of the comments of the tongue slipping down. I'm not sure what folks are experiencing as the boa cords go through the tongue so I can't see it slipping down (is it going to the side? have they changed the design?).
Great shoe... very comfortable, look great, well made, fit to size, wonderful stiffness and power transfer.

Functional and beautiful
I bought these as a present for myself when I reached one of my cycling goals. I have to say they are really amazing. Compared to my previous shoes (first cycling shoes) they are an amazing upgrade.
My feet feel very snug and I can really put the hammer down in a more efficient way. Also don't see that many people riding around with these so they're also quite unique.

So far, superb!
I have only had these for about 10 days and have been breaking them in only on my Kickr. The fit and comfort are everything I’ve been searching for. They are light, look great and at least on the trainer very performance enhancing. Obviously, the Boa tighteners are great and there are no “hot spots” so far either. Looking forward to putting these to a road test!

The best you can buy
I have tried every brand of shoe for my funny feet and these are perfect. I have a medium wide front and a narrow heel that slips out of every shoe I have ever used. Bont was close but too stiff, I started with the classic shoe from Rapha but did not like the laces…the boa in my mind is perfect. I have the off-road shoe as well and it’s the best I have used.

Best cycling shoes ever!!
They are very light. Stiff carbon sole. Innersole is comfortable after a long ride. The fit is true to size so no need to size up. Adequate space in the toe area, very pleasing. Boa system works well no issues. Colour and finish will not be to everyone's taste.
But i like it.
They are expensive, but if i had one pair of cycling shoes these would be them.

Not as good as expected
Not as expected fit is oké but not as perfect as the current classic shoe. I like the boa more than the laices but that is it. Stifness of the sole is simmilar and performance is good. They look sharper then the classic but overall performyis pretty the same. I bought them in the sale and therefor the price quality is oké. Nice shoes with Rapha quality

Would buy again
I currently own two pairs of cycling shoes, and the Pro Team Shoes are my go to whenever the distance is shorter than 80k. They fit snugly, but comfortably so (even though I have wide(r) feet), and the soles are of the stiffest I've encountered. They really help in a sprint/intervals or for that final push uphill. I would definitely buy them again.

Excellent Shoes
I bought these based on reviews in the cycling magazines and they are absolutely worth of every positive reviews written. Fit is perfect. My normal shoe size is 44 and I am happy that after a long consideration decided to order size of 44,5. While riding instead of feeling the shoes I feel how the leg power is transformed into bike moving force.

Done about 500 miles. Look great. Not got them dirty so cannot comment on how well they clean up but these will be best weather shoes anyway. Comfortable. Similar fit size wise to Spec S Works and Addidas trainers. Not as much venting visible but yet to test if thats an issue as max ridden in has been 20/22 degrees. Seem stiff and comfortable

Beautiful shoes but problematic cleat position
These shoes are beautiful and well constructed, however the 3-hole cleat placement does not allow the cleat to be forward enough. There has been a lot of research and discussions on cleat position (cleat forward vs cleat back) and sprinters prefer cleat forward positioning. I do wish the shoes enabled a more cleat forward position.

Sublime fitting pair of shoes
The best pair of shoes I’ve ever bought! Fit like a glove, BOA works like a charm… If they were transparent I’d truly believe I was Cinderella. I can honestly say I’ve never had a pair of shoes fitting so well, on or of the bike! Unfortunately they‘re not that good for working in the office, otherwise I’d wear them all day long!

Nice upgrade from the Classic
I bought the shoes when they dropped for RCC members. I love them, however Rapha’s size comparison chart seems a bit off. I have Specialized S-Works in 41, Rapha had stated that 41 would be the same their 40.5. The sizing of the Rapha Pro Team shoes runs a tad small; I should have gone with a 41 in the Rapha Pro Team shoe.

Pro for sho!
TL;DR: Shoes are supremely comfortable and supportive. The good: Adjustable: I tried the higher arch insert but then reverted back to the medium arch support that came in the shoe out of the box. These are my first shoes with the BOA mechanism which is supremely adjustable and the shoes sit open so nicely I am thinking about wearing them for my upcoming IM70.3, except they are probably too nice to trash! The bad: I know some people have complained about issues with the tongue, but I am yet to suffer the same issue. Shoes could definitely be more breathable (esp. for indoor training). I had/have some concerns about replacing the heel rubber, but I also know other Rapha shoes I have bought have lasted longer than you could reasonably expect. The meh: I bought the blue/black pair (on sale) and i can see why others were keener on the other colourways, but I reckon they won't show dirt as much and maybe it's just a good excuse to by some primo socks that make them pop!

Works well
The shoes looks good. I can’t tell any different from Swork7. But the insoles not works on my feet. Even the high one is a bit low. Not enough support as I use a Specialized +++ on Swork7. Also the shoe tongue is always sliding forward while riding. I need to release the BOA and pull it back to place. I don’t know why.

A very good piece of equipment ….
But, be aware it sizes a bit small. I’m usually using 43 european size and selected 43,5 but even so it’s pretty tight. This said with the Bora system you can adjust the shoes to your feet pretty well. Good feeling, very stif and good transfer of power. I choose those to replace my Sphyre and I don’t regret my choice!

The benchmark for awesome looking utilitarian shoe
Aesthetically the shoes look great. I got the blue ones and they go with this about everything. Structurally, the shoes are very stiff and helped tremendously when climbing and paddling out of the saddle. Overall, these are great shoes for a great price. The boa tightening system is unmatched. Strongly recommend them.

Very happy with these
Love them. Elegant, comfortable and the BOA dials are very precise. I read the other reviews and some of the issues other riders have but took a leap of faith and I am happy to report that I do not have the tongue issue. I was coming from a pair of Mavic Cosmic and these are definitely a step up in terms of comfort.

Great shoes, but beware of size!
Wonderful shoes, but the size is rather small. My previous ones were Shimano RP9 in size 40 (EU): they were a bit large. Then I decided to buy the Rapha in size 39, which turned out to be far too small. Actually the Rapha 40.5 are perfect. Hence, size numbers appear to be quite different for Rapha and other brands.

Have yet to ride 'em
I got these thinking I'd be back home to try 'em out...yeah, then comes Covid-19 and I'm now exiled in gravel country...and gravel shoes these are NOT! That said, I tried them on, walked around the house in them and yeah, they feel stiff and very comfortable. Can't wait to get back home to give the old road test

Great shoes!
I’ve done about 4 rides on them and they are really nice! A very good fit, for my feet, comfortable and stiff. The Boa system provides a good fit around the fit, would have been even nicer if the replacable Boa would have been used, with the aluminum dial.
But it’s a perfect shoe with a great look, I love them!

Cool shoes for hot feet
ive had shoes that are good, ive had shoes that are great...but ive never had shoes that could cope with the hot weather that cause my feet to swell ( hot feet)....until now, yeah the pro shoes are expensive, but if you suffer from hot feet these are worth every penny....and the purple/pink colour is so cool

Extremely Powerful Shoe
As a cyclist that has been riding and racing over thirty five years I can say that the power delivery from this shoe is amazing. Fit and comfort are incredible. I actually had to reorder a half size up from my original purchase. Fortunately they can back in stock, I am really pleased I was able to get them.

Beautiful and comfortable . . .
A gorgeous shoe - comfortable from first try.
Only 5 rides in and find that I need to tighten as the ride goes on - not a niggle, maybe just a reflection of the material construction.
The Boa placement and how it's designed to work with the shoe makes it even better than competitor high end boa shoes.

Crazy Comfortable
These shoes are very comfortable! They are also very light. The cup for the heel does make a large difference. Hugs the back of the foot and keeps it in place. I don't have the problem of the tongue moving. It does have a loop in the tongue where the wire on the boa system goes through. Love this shoe.

Great Cycling Shoes. The most comfortable shoes.
It is the cycling shoes to go. Love the knit tech very much. Genius. Great carbon sole for that ultimate power transfer. Very comfortable for short and long rides. To date I have clocked 160kms on a single ride with this Pro Team shoes. Will not hesitate to recommend this product to others. Worth it.

Rapha puts its best foot forward!
Powerweave! Feels good, looks good, performs good. It’ll be interesting to see how it works in other products (bib shorts) in the future, but for these shoes it’s a great mix of flex and stability. I got the off-white colour and they look so good! the price is also very competitive. Excellent shoes.

Fresh rides
Great performance, very stylish I believe, the cleaning is a bit of a thing.
I had a pair from which the 'helix' in the shoe broke. I got a new pair send within the week my return arrived. This kind of service is very valuable for online shopping and fits the price and quality Rapha strives for.

Really Nice Shoes.
Shoes are well made, light, and stiff where they need to be. I don't upgrade gear very often. My previous pair of shoes are 15 years old. These shoes are many leaps forward. The upper is very breathable, and the soles are nice and stiff. I can't wait to log many more miles with these shoes.

1st ride comfort
I moved from Sidi to these a few weeks ago and have ridden about 400km mostly indoors since then. These are a much more comfortable shoe and have been since ride one. They fit well without localised pressure from either the sole or the upper and the adjustment on the Boa dials are excellent .
