A lot of CX-riders are riding these days those new blue Shimano MTB shoes.
But Sven Nys is still on his old.
What would be the reason of this?

He likes the fit of the old shoes better? Just a guess :)

The 315 is looser/boxier.
My guess is that he just does not want to change mid-season.
The XC90 has a different sole and fit. Might need to adjust saddle.
Not a big deal for most of us, maybe a big deal for a finicky pro.
