I am using a pair of Nike Lance 2 road shoes, traditional colours, with the Texas flag. They have been great shoes, no deterioration or loose threads over four years of riding now. Very stiff (and thin) full OCLV carbon sole (made by Trek), uppers apparently by DMT. Very good ventilation, which is one of my primary criteria. I like the buckles, as I can adjust them easily while riding. Nike got out of cycling gear when their contract expired with Trek, so these are no longer available. Interesting note that reportedly, two riders in the tour this year used these shoes (Levi and Cavendish). It has been four years since they stopped making them, so there must be a stock pile somewhere. I have other Nike gear (touring shoes with carbon soles and SPD cleats) and it has been good too.

Most of my clothing is Sugoi. Good stuff, high tech, and a local company as well.
