The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly: Pinkbike Editors' Favorite Flat Pedal Shoes
Yep Shimano GF8 GTX shite to put on, after 2 years of use the heel cup on one died and hard to repair as it is bwteen the inner sock bit and the shoe out.
but once on your foot very comfy and grippy.

First Look: The Raaw Jibb V2 is More Versatile with 130mm or 141mm Travel
I wonder if the frame is actually the same as the V3 Madonna, but just with a different rocker etc.?
I have a V2.2 Madonna and is a great bike.
If the frames are at the same bwteen the two V2Jib and V3 Madonna, then woudl open up the option of rocker/shock swaps to covert from 130mm to 160mm travel.

First Ride: Atherton S170 - Long Travel & Lugged Aluminum
Yer agree, I went with a Madonna. Atherton will do custom stack, but given they do so many std sizes, baffling that they don't even offer tall stack as std 'tall option', especially given their manufacturing process. I did ask them but they just push you towards the std sizes.
