If you have these please post pros/cons feedback on these shoes.

In the market for new shoes & of interest are Fizik, Shimano TR9 & VeloVetta.
Tried the last 2 on today & Shimano was not breathable much vs VeloVetta (opposite of my original thoughts upon viewing of VV).

-Forefoot on VV was spot on, and when I had one of each on, kicking like a swimmer sitting down/toes pointed, I literally could not tell the weight difference, but VV is much heavier just holding it. However, not while moving legs could I tell.
-No strap over the top of foot make VV more comfortable overall, but going up on tippy toes I had about 1/2 in space created under foot on the VV which tells me despite cinched down all the way--I'd lose power on pull up as it wasn't as secure/connected with the shoe.
-Shimano was very cheap/plastic-like upper feel & crowded toe box vs VV--seemed to use a better material than Shimano for sure.

Going for a velcro vs boa dial system due to racing across all distances including sprints & doing flying mounts.
Fizik Hydra feedback (or other non-boa suggestions welcome). Have yet to to find the Fizik in the wild to try on...
