I have switched to barefoot wide-toebox shoes and was excited to try a mtb shoe that didn't cramp my toes. The MX169 is a super heavy shoe, which I can deal with, and is comfortable, but there is ZERO stick to flat pedals. Not recommended if you like to pedal hard, jump, and ride technical trails.
My tennis shoes are 46 and I got the same size biking shoe. Great fit for my wide feet. Well constructed and very comfortable. I used the Shimano cleats I had on my old Lake shoes without issue. Great find! Definitely recommend!
Nice roomy toe box and stiffness, great shoe!
I do get a bit of the heel slip but I deal with that with lacing methods. My feet also will swell on longer rides and that helps. Overall, I'm pleased because my foot is so wide I'm happy I can wear anything but I really dislike how heavy and clunky these are. But if you need a wide toe box shoe because you wear Xero, Altra, Lems, etc etc, then this is a fit.
I usually wear a size 11 EEE, and while this shoe doesn't come in a dedicated wide size, the size 46 (so, a size up from the size 45 I would usually buy) fits me wonderfully. The wide toe box is extremely comfortable, so much so that I just bought a second pair so I'd have a backup. If you have wide feet and are looking for a bike shoe that looks like a normal sneaker, this is your shoe.
