MTB/Gravel SPD shoes

[pavlo.k]

Hey, I'm looking to buy a new pair of SPD shoes for MTB and gravel riding.
Right now, all I seem to find are variations of the cheapest models, like these:

I actually own a pair of these, and they’re decent for the price — but I’d like to upgrade to something a bit more premium this time.

I’ve got a pair of Sidebike SPD-SL shoes for my road bike that I’m really happy with, but honestly, their MTB models are some of the ugliest I’ve ever seen

Would really appreciate any suggestions

I usually buy everything with Aliexpress but for shoes I have a pair of Specialized for road and a pair of Shimano XC7 for MTB/Gravel.
I choose something confortable and with rubber grip for MTB/Gravel in order not to slip in muddy rock or in case I have to walk in the woods
