Excellent cycling shoe!
Shoes fit well and soles feel quite stiff. Understated design looks great and Boa system is easily adjusted. Comfort increased after about 100 miles.

Most comfortable road shoe I have ever worn. Whether it is a 20 km ride or a 120 km ride, these shoes feel the same from start to finish.

Stunning Well Fitting Comfortable Shoes
Really comfortable good looking shoes. Having tried most other top brand cycling shoes, usually at same or higher price band and never quite been totally satisfied so decided to try these. They fit my slightly wide size 44 feet very well, as soon as I put them on I liked them, the heel cup cradles the foot very well allowing no movement and I found the forefoot area just right, not too tight or too roomy which can be an issue on long rides. Soles are super stiff and fitted my speedplay cleats without any issues, have used them about a dozen times so long term review is unknown but have given 5 stars on the short term, can’t see there being any issues with them and highly recommend these. I went for the light grey version and they really look the part, I am a size 44 and ordered a 44 and the fit is spot on, buy them.

Speed and comfort
These shoes are incredibly comfortable. I love the double BOA setup and they make more enjoyable. The insoles have adjustable inserts for different arches meaning you can tailor the fit to you which I haven’t seen with any other shoes.
The reason they get 4 rather than 5 stars for me is that the soles have scratched very quickly, meaning the beautiful carbon is at risk. It makes me sad when I look at the underside now 😔. If you’re careful though, they’re fantastic.

Light, stiff and comfortable
A very nice shoe at a reasonable price (given how much high-end shoes can cost). The weave allows the shoes to breathe. In dry conditions, that's great. Less so in the rain. It doesn't stretch much at all, so there isn't immediate give like some of the knit shoes out there. Like leather and leather substitutes, the shoe does slowly reshape itself to your foot. I like the instep swapping feature (I have flat feet). Overall, very pleased with my purchase.

Broken Shoes laces
One of the fastening hook was broken from the factory, and due to lockdown, unable to send it back to Rapha. Can’t wait to take it to Rapha to have it fixed or returned

Not true to site for women
I've read a few reviews before ordering these shoes just to ensure they are true to size, found many reviews that shoes are sometimes even larger to size, but definitely NOT. I normally wear 38, bought size 38 and it was very small, so I needed to exchange it for 39 and it is "just enough" on my feet. But quality and style is very cool, I love them.

Incredibly comfy with great power transfer
Been using these now for 3 weeks on both short and long rides and absolutely love them. Out of the box, they come with inserts (which I haven’t used) and just need the cleats adding. Guidance stickers on the sole are only minimally useful to help position cleats so likely to need a little trial and error.
Biggest first impression on using them was the stiffness of the sole and the feeling of power transferring straight from you to the pedals - made it feel so much easier compared to my previous shoes (which were decent).
The Powerweave is incredibly comfy, as is the whole shoe, even when Boa dials done tight to ensure no foot movement in the shoe. The heel really helps with this as it feels like you tuck it into the heel section on the up-stroke enabling you to really power throughout your whole pedal stroke.
Finally, I love the design and look of the shoe to mean all-round these are superb cycling shoes and well worth the investment.

Almost perfect
These are the most comfortable, easier to use, light cycling shoes I've ever used but... The white ones are impossible to keep white which is a big problem for cyclists as you can imagine... The position of the boa's also isn't the most appealing from a bird's eye view in comparison to something like the specialized s-works 7.
Still, because of the comfort and how big of a rapha fan I am, I'm considering getting another pair (maybe black this time?).

Super shoes
These shoes are very nicely designed. I like the look and enough stiffness most. Materials and color are super. Sizing is little bit tricky. My foot is 27,2 sentimeters and I bought shoe size 43,5. This must be 28 sentimeters, but possibly size 44 will be better for me. It feels lttle bit tight for me but OK to use. I suggest to add at least 1 sentimeter to your foot lenght to get the right size. Overall I am very satisfied with these shoes.

Pro team shoes
I have s works and fizik r1 shoes. Researched these and went for them in black. Sizing same as Specialized for me.
They are really comfortable. I use the high arch support which is a nice touch to be able to switch out.
The cleat position is spot on for me. I’ve only had them about a month but are my go to shoes.
Great stiffness and more comfortable than any other bike shoe I’ve tried so far.
Plus they look sharp too, always important!

Super stiff soul - still work with flat feet
These are the stiffest shoes I have ever worn. I have been loyal to another brand for 30 plus years as I have really flat feet and they just worked for me. These took a couple rides to break in and then I went out for 43 miles (69k) and my feet were throbbing at the end. I was concerned this would be a long term problem but just ratcheted back on the lower boa next time out and had no more problems at any distance. Really like them.

Great shoes
While packaging for my 1,000 mile ride from St Malo to Nice I realized how shabby my shoes had become so I quickly ordered these Pro Team Shoes from Rapha. My normal size came up too small so I went up a size. It was a risk ridding so far in new shoes but I was not disappointed. They are excellent. Great comfort and very precise closures. I definitely recommend them with one reservation. I would like to see replaceable heels

Great top end shoe and mid-tier price!
OK, these are still relatively new and I think a shoe should go through a year of work before it's truly judged, but first impressions are very good. I have to buy everything Rapha a size up (I wear a medium in every day life and large in Rapha). I did not expect this in the shoe (this is my first Rapha shoe) but I had to go a whole size to feel comfortable UK10>>UK11. But once the size was sorted I was very pleased with the fit. I had read that they felt narrow but they seem generous to me.
I still own and ride in a pair of s-works, which I hold as the benchmark for race shoes. These feel just as sturdy through the carbon sole, so power is there in abundance. The mesh upper feel snug and supportive, even with (short) 1000W+ sprint efforts.
They feel light, at least as light as my s-works. I bought the white shoe, to contrast with the s-works which are black, so they've not been out on wet and muddy days - therefore I've not tested the hydrophobic water repellent capability. My plan is to wear them on fairer weather days and, given the UK weather, test out how they hold up under a downpour when it inevitably happens.
I also really like the amount of protection they have in the right places underneath. More robust heel protection and good toe skirting. The upper will need adequate care and attention, but I guess you should opt for black or purple if you tend to drip your coffee on a club run...
Yes, in summary, very happy with the purchase. Stylish, functional and good value for money.

Pro team quality
Look fantastic, high build quality. Noticeably higher arches than I have felt in a set of bike shoes. Didn't create any discomfort at all. In fact I haven't had any discomfort at all, even numbness which I usually experience in bike shoes is easy to manage with the boa system. My only feedback would be to extent toe protection further around the outer toe area as they do pick up a bit of scuffing from starts and stops.

Great fit for cusp of wide
My previous shoes were S-Works which have been fabulous and faithful however the new model of those and other brands did not fit as well on this occasion. I am told that I am on the cusp of a wide fit, however the Rapha Pro Team Shoes fit beautifully before, during and after the longest of rides. I am pleased with my selection and the excellent service (from the pop-up shop, George Street Sydney). Safe and happy riding.

Very poor response and support from Rapha recently
Very poor response and support from Rapha in the recent months. I have bought many Rapha items including this Pro Team Shoes before. I usually received the items within a week and a response with a day or 2 if I have any questions. In the recent months, the items arrived ranging between 10-30 days from the time I placed the orders. I received this shoes back on 13th July and immediately feedback that the shoe sole inserts were missing. Till today 15th August, Rapha has no commitment for a firmed date to send a replacement and just asked me to WAIT!!?? As I have flat fleet, it's uncomfortable to wear the shoes without the sole inserts.
Frankly, I like the product quality and that's the reason I continue to purchase from Rapha but the service is definitely going downhill significantly based on my experience in the past few months. Hope Rapha can be better on this aspect soon.

Best Shoe I’ve used - Comfort, Looks, Heel Hold,
Brilliant shoes, this is the second pair I’ve bought.
After using many different high end shoes (Giro, Specialized, Bont, Shimano) I’ve found the Rapha Pro Shoes were the prefect mix of comfort, heel hold, structure, competitive price, fantastic looks and ease of stock availability.
So happy with them that I bought a second pair 12 months after the first. Rapha customer service too is world class.

Best Rapha shoes
This is the most comfortable shoe I have and I can only use Giro shoes normally like the old Rapha climbers shoes.
Some of you stated that the tongue of the shoe can move laterally during riding and yes I got that in my old shoe where I put a non slip tape at the back and that stops it effectively. I don’t need to do that on the Current new shoes even on naked eyes I cannot tell the difference

Best shoes I've ever owned
Been riding in a pair of top of the range Sidi shoes for many years. Tend to spend around 50 miles on a bike ride and sportives upto 100 miles. Been on a few rides so far with these and am absolutely in love with them. They are light and extremely comfortable. To be honest I'm considering about buying another pair so I have a spare set before they all sell out!!! Love them! Thanks Rapha!
