These are Vittoria's or at least the box is. Looks like good, Top-o-de-line stuff. Nice thick soles. Use some thin insoles and your style'n.

I found these - eBay - Item number: 7230533313 - Anyone know anything about these or have used this shoe? They may be a bit too vintage. But I

am looking for shoes with laces. No velcro or ratchets.
