The MKS touring pedal is a nice choice- work well, fairly light [compared to many platform pedals] and don't cost a lot. A stiff sole shoe makes the more comfortable on a long ride.
However, IMHO, the Shimano MX30 is the best platform pedal - probably have 12000 km on my pair. They are grippy without biting, run smooth and have worn well. They are not the cheapest option.
