Something I noticed with my Chrome shoes. However, upon closer inspection, I found out it was actually me wriggling with power grip and pedal's uneven surfaces (the grip thing for pedal) that was causing it. I filed it off and it is fine now. You probably want to stick with pedals that has as flat top as possible with power grips. (2 things, easier to get in and out, and no more torn soles).
