If the shoe is constructed right, and I have to assume these guys know how to construct a shoe, little NWD/whatever on the ankle strap and behind the heel ought to take care of that, while still allowing the rest of the upper to softy hug the parts of the foot that have jack to do with pow transfer.

I'm stoked, meself. I seem to have an odd shaped foot and get hotspots on most shoes. Knit upper would go miles in fixing that
I have a bunion on my right foot and think these shoes may be more flexible in that area besides most of my riding is in mild weather so my feet getting cold in not a real issue. Looking forward to trying out these shoes.
