With all of the discussion about casual shoes I feel like people completely ignore the offerings from mavic. http://brandscycle.com/product/mavic...09-55403-1.htm

They're not super stylish but they are super comfortable on and off the bike. I use them as everyday shoes. They don't scrape, there are no hotspots and they don't look super techy. One thing that I wonder about with anything by DZR is how these are after several hours of use. Being on and off the bike all day, if I don't have the velcro reasonably tight the laces will eventually become loose from all of the pulling on the upstroke. I'm curious if any of these shoes have an issue with that.
