Personally I like toe clips and lose straps. There is no messing with the straps; you dont need to touch them at all. You dont need them to be tight. You slide your feet in and slide them out. Metal clips can be bent to shape and leather straps hold their shape well.
+1. I have these on two of my three bikes. They are just right. I use them with Power Grips on one and just a straight platform on the other. Bearings are serviceable too.
