From wiggle.co.uk's dhb brand, the highly-reviewed M1.0 and R1.0 are probably the best value in cycling shoes. I purchased two sizes, 44 and 43, to find out which size I was. I have taken the 43's, but it is not economical to return-ship the 44's back to the UK. The white/black size 44's are brand new and unworn, and yours for forty dollars. You are able to try them on, which you otherwise wouldn't be if you simply bought from Wiggle. If you decide within a day or so that they do not fit you, you may also return them to me.

I can meet you downtown, in Evanston, or anywhere near the blue or red lines. We can meet up wherever (coffee shop, library, etc.), and I am happy to hang around while you try them on. You can also come by my place out in Glen Ellyn if you have the time.
