According to the product specialist

Pros
The perforated synthetic leather creates a great fit and breathability.
This cycling shoe can be adjusted quickly and precisely with the BOA® L6 dial closure.
The nylon sole is reinforced with fibreglass, which ensures better power transfer.
The integrated seamless midsole gives the RC300 more stability.
The Powerstrap velcro closure wraps around the foot like a ribbon, offering an excellent fit and very high wearing comfort.
The R5 nylon outsole is reinforced with carbon, for the perfect balance between comfort and performance.
Excellent fit due to the new X-Dial SLW3 fastening mechanism.
The NRG Air Carbon sole offers both comfort and good power transfer.
The AirFlow system provides an ideal airflow along the bottom of the shoe.
Thanks to the Unibody construction, there are no pressure points on the foot.
The ventilation holes across the shoe ensure good breathability.
Cons
Although the nylon sole has been reinforced with fibreglass it is still not as stiff as a full carbon sole.
The power transfer to the pedals is not as good as that of a shoe with a full carbon sole.
With a full carbon sole, the power transfer to the pedals is even better than with this sole.
In order to use the shoe with SPD pedals, you will need a separate adapter. This does not come with the shoes as standard.
