Other than style, are they better than the Exustar Stelvio mentioned upthread? That seems like the obvious touring shoe to me based on specs and design. I just got a pair that I haven’t used yet, but first impressions are that the sole is stiffer than I expected and plenty stiff enough for spirited riding, as Jan Heine puts it. And they’re easy to walk in and just about passable for wearing to a tourist restaurant.
