I did that search and saw a few that look like they fit the OP's requirements. BTW, just because a shoe is designed to be used with SPD or other clipless system doesn't mean you have use them with one. Many have a section of the sole that needs to be cut out for clipless use and it can just be left in for those who do not want to bolt on cleats.

FWIW, I think that clips and straps are the worst of both worlds, but I guess there are still folks who like them. I do have to say that, having used clips and straps for years before clipless became popular, I have a hard time understanding why anyone would choose them today.
