Anybody notice that the ads that appear on the borders of this thread are all about shoes? Sexy shoes at that!

Chrome Kursk for clips and straps. They are hipster approved but work well and have a stiff sole for riding. I like mine.

these are really nice, do they have clips at the bottom? or are they just flat bottom shoes
this is a really good topic, i was actually wondering what people do where with pedals with straps and cages and just normal pedals

ok here's another question, might be a dumb question but i saw these shoes and i'm wondering, if you don't put that cleat or hook on for the clip pedals, will they still work well with just normal pedals, or pedals with straps? or is the bottom too hard ?

I just remember I'm going to Guatemala next week and I know a shoe maker who could make a custom made copy of old leather cycling shoes very affordable. Now I just have to get my hands on an old pair.
