For £10 shy of our £100 limit, there’s a lot going on with these Spanish road shoes.

Ventilation is generous with channelling throughout the sole to keep feet cool on those scorching hot summer rides.

Thoughtfully, Spiuk has provided a second set of insoles without perforations for when the weather’s cooler, along with longer ratchet straps for those with larger ankles.

If that’s not enough, the upper is heat moldable.

While we didn’t notice a huge difference, the fit around the heel was definitely more comfortable after a quick stint in the Aga.
