The only size I saw on Amazon for the Chrome Kursk model was 6.5. The only model I saw my size in was this strange slip-on style. But I'd definitely like some suggestions from experienced riders as to what shoes they prefer.

Regarding velcro, if you're using pedal straps I'd avoid it. The straps on the shoes run parallel to the straps on the pedals and they run into each other when you try to put your foot in.
I was running clipless pedals, but I'm getting tired of wearing those shoes and changing shoes when I get to the office. The straps don't really appeal to me so I thought I'd look into good shoes for flats. I'll check out Zappos. Do you have any brand/model suggestions? Or any to particularly avoid? Thanks.
