So, I have started wearing the VFF Bikila LS, and I found the Speeds online. I was just wondering about how they fit comparitively to the Bikilas. I know they share the same foot bed, but I did find a review that stated the Speed was more snug. It didn't say how much more snug though. I wear a 47 in the Bikilas, and I have a very wide foot throughout. The bikilas fit "like a glove" rather literally, they don't squeeze or pinch my feet though, it's more of a hugging feeling. I really love the look of the speed, but I don't want to have to hassle with a return for it if it doesn't work out for me. Any input on how much tighter if any the Speeds are? thanks for any help.

I considered the Speeds and tried on some, but in the end I thought I would get more ground feel with Komodosport LS's over the Speed/Bikila footbed. I also liked the speed lacing system of the Komodos and didn't want to fiddle with normal laces on the Speeds.

Thanks for the tip on the Birthdayshoes forum, found a lot of info on fit there, looks like the speeds are out for me. I did try the Komodo LS and the toes were too snug compared to the same size Bikila LS. Oh well. Thanks again for the info.
