| 2468.1 | big feet | BUMP::MREID | | Wed Dec 02 1992 18:27 | 12 |
| Speaking of large sizes ....
I have a friend with size 15 feet (he's 6'6", 260lbs); he just bought a
nice mountain bike and would like SPD. Problem is that he can't find
anyone that makes size 15 SPD compatible shoes!
Any ideas?
(sorry to intrude on the note Scott, but I saw an opening & went for
it!)

| Mark,
No problem. If I don't get any help here I'll just call
Rodale and have them send me another copy of the issue
I want.
I can't say for sure, but I'll bet the issue I'm looking
for has shoes in his size.
As I said, I'll call Rodale if I don't find any help here.
If I find something applicable to your friend, I'll let you
know.

| 2468.3 | I'll take a look | ODIXIE::RRODRIGUEZ | Where's that Tour d' France thang? | Thu Dec 03 1992 09:46 | 5 |
| Hmmm... I might have that one. A guy is on the front and his bike
had S.T.I. levers? I'll check it out... I don't have a subscription.
I don't think I threw it out.

| Scott,
I know I have the issue. I'll give it to my wife who works in LJO.
I believe you have met her, Carole Greenfield.

| 2468.9 | I've got it, fer sure! | ODIXIE::RRODRIGUEZ | Where's that Tour d' France thang? | Fri Dec 04 1992 14:09 | 9 |
| It's in my car, I'll try to put it in the info this weekend. It
isn't alot. Just some charts showing who makes big shoes, helmets,
& shorts and their sizes.
As far as shoes. I once got a pair of Nikes--too wide. As I thought,
they made the list for big guys. I am 6'0" and my shoes are 11.5
(U.S.).

| Tom,
Yes, I've met Carole. We've talked some about cycling. It
took me a while to connect the two of you, but I've now
made the connection, so...
Thanks,
Scott

| Carole and Tom had the article (notice I spelled article
correctly this time) I wanted. I've copied it and am
very appreciative.
Thanks a bunch,

| Scott,
Any info on size 15 shoes that might be SPD compatible? (or is 1991
too early?)

| Mark,
Sorry, I forgot about your query.
I don't have the info at work with me today, but I vaguely
remember that size 14 (50) was the largest I saw. However,
I just glanced at it.
I'll bring the info in tomorrow and reply with the info in
hand.

| Ditto on that. The article was in my car and my wife drove it
to the airport (she's a flight attendant/stewardess/safety
professional). I'll have it back on Friday.

| Mark,
The largest shoes in the table (in the BICYCLING article) are
14 (50). They are Vittoria shoes.
Article says: "For your nearest dealer, contact:"

| 2468.16 | Recent magazine mentioned custom shoes | DECWET::BINGHAM | John Bingham | Fri Dec 11 1992 13:46 | 3 |
| A custom shoe where you send in a tracing of your foot is available from a
company that I think is in San Diego. Look and Speedplay mountings are
options for cleats. I don't remember the company name.

| 2468.17 | IN VELONEWS | AKOCOA::FULLER | | Fri Dec 11 1992 13:59 | 4 |
| Pick up the latest Velonews, the company is listed in the section
reviewing the recent trade shows.

| The VeloNews article says on page 72 says:
SPORTLAB's Don Lamson (formerly of DONI) now offers
custom road or triathlon shoes; the customer sends
in foot tracings and two measurements with the order.
Lamson offers two soles: one with standard three-hole
drilling, and the other, special sole meant for the
SPEEDPLAY road pedal. This sole eliminates the need
for the first cleat layer, and brings the foot very
close to the spindle.
I could not find an address.
