Gaerne Bora Reflex road shoes review
I’ve yet to test them in hot weather but I feel they may be a little lacking in ventilation as there are just holes on the side for heat loss, as opposed to meshing.

You can trust Cycling Weekly.
With bright visuals, strong detailing and graphics, the Reflex offers a light, comfortable and well fitting (for this wide-footed tester) shoe.
Stiff soled without being punishing, it has a nice and sturdy heel, which reduces lift and eliminates rub.
During damp, cold rides they were warm enough and, coupled with overshoes, were good through the winter months.
