Nice display. Background is a little bright, even on calibrated monitor.

I really get a great sense of the product, the front/top design and textures, while at the same time the details of the pedal clips and atypical traction design. Lighting is good and even, lighting the entire product, possibly slightly over exposed in the tip of the bottom shoe, but that area might very well be all white with little detail anyhow.

Nice arrangement of the shoes. Highlights seem a bit strong to me, otherwise a nice product shot.

nice lighting and good composition, the only thing is, it needs a bit more contrast (imo)
