Toe section too thick
Holdability of the ankle area is very good, but it is difficult to operate with a vengeance.
Thick from the toe to the instep, making it difficult to insert the Shift when moving up.

Hard to SHIFT UP
Was the one you received as per Image?
The actual product was thicker (taller) on the toe and Sole than the photo, giving a strong impression of safety shoes.
The reinforcement in the shift guard area is also noticeable and feels tacked on.
[How did you feel about the Fit?
Shoes "Tongue." The section opens 90-degrees, but only up to the middle.
And because the ankle portion of the MiddleCut is high and hard due to the girdle, it was hard for me with a high instep foot to wear even with the ankle fully open (that's why I chose 27.5cm, one size larger).
How was your experience with it?
The Sole part is quite high, and the toes are high enough (thick enough) that there is room for the fingertips to go up and down, making it difficult to SHIFT UP.
I have only used it once and regret purchasing it for this one thing.
I also did not like the large toe space, which diminishes the Direct feeling of operation.
[Was there anything that disappointed you?
I think some of the aforementioned operability has made a bad impression on me, but every day that passes since I bought them, they seem to have a safety shoe feel, or an old man's smell, or an old-fashioned Motorcycle gear is tacky." The impression of the "I" is increasing…….
How did it compare to other products?
I chose this shoe because of its low price, but I realized that I should have bought a shoe with a thinner Sole, such as some European Manufactures, and a design that reduces the height of the toe portion to enhance the Shift change operation.
【Cost performance】
Unfortunately, the direction of the shoes was slightly different from what I was looking for, but I think it is great that elf is a pioneer of this type of riding shoes with high cost performance.
*addition
Mr. WeBig, In-Place Product Information." I can select a size in the "Size" column, but only up to 27.0cm is available?

Elf (elf) Compared to Riding shoes terre01
Elf (elf) Compared to riding shoes terre01, my personal opinion is that the toe is thicker and it catches during shift change. waterproof breathability has not been tested yet. boasystem is not so good. velcro also starts to hurt even if you fasten it normally. Velcro is also painful even if it is fastened normally. View detail
Individual differences or...?
As mentioned in other reviews, the Shift PedalProtector cracked. I bought it last year, put it in hibernation for 6 months, and just started wearing it today (bought a year ago, less than 6 months of actual use) and this is what happened.
Only city touring, Zero for hard sports riding, and of course Zero for Off.
The only thing I can think of is storage conditions or quality issues, and if the others are the same, then it's the latter,
It's a shame because I have no problem with the comfort of the shoes, etc. I have another pair and would like to be careful about recurrence.
