These are great shoes for one's going into clips for the first time.  If you are a road racer, serious big time biker, you probably wouldn't be looking at this shoe or reading the review.  Because I was ordering shoes on-line I was most worried about the size issues brought up in the reviews.  Because of this I ordered a size European 46, which is listed as congruent with American size 11.5.  I wear American size 11, regular width, and 11.5 shoes are too long.  The shoes at 46 fit my size 11 feet just perfectly. So my contribution:  European size 46 = American size 11.
