Need recommendation for new road shoes

I want to pick up some new shoes for training. I am thinking of Sidi Genius 5 or Specialized Pro Carbon. Does anyone have experience with these two models (assuming both fit)? Half the people tell me Sidi is best thing since sliced bread while others say they are overpriced crap. Don’t really know what to think…

Find some Sidi’s on some ridiculous sale…

I have an “in” an use Sidi Ergo 1. A nice fit for my foot with ZitFit insoles.

Try on a bunch of shoes to make sure you get the proper last…

Even used Sidi on ebay are a good buy!

Cycling shoe fit is very individual. You will have to try a few on, even take a few for a spin on a bike if you can to make the best decesion. General comments like Sidi are outstanding/suck, are next to useless. I must say though that ebay does seem to have high numbers of high end cycling shoes on offer regularly and many are new right out of the box.
