Friends: In my quest for shoes that are right for my period bikes, I have ended up w ith a couple of pair which are great but don't fit me. My big American feet's loss is a win for you with daintier tootsies. (I wear 44 - 46 depending on who is measuring)
1. NOS in the box Vittoria SuperPrestige Competition. Leather upper, stiff plastic sole, includes unused cleats which bolt to the shoe. Box says 44 /12 which I would call correct, they are on the narrow side whi ch is why they don't work for me. These are STUNNERS, geez I wish they fit... $55.00 (or best offer) shipping included for the US 48 contiguous states.
2. NOS no-name shoes, no box. Leather upper, plastic sole. Sole labled 44, inside shoe labled 45. I would say 44 is more accurate. No cleats, sole not drilled for cleats. I would consider them slightly wide as Italian shoes go, if they really wer e 45's I think they would fit my fat American feet. $35.00 (or best offer) shipping included for the US 48 contiguous states.
If ya want pics or more info, just ask.
Paypal (to this e-mail) preferred.
Local collection is fine, just bring a couple of (good) beers to enjoy whil e we shoot the vintage bicycle breeze.
