Found at a garage sale in July 2012 (FOR ONLY $2.00) this almost new pair of LACOSTE men's Protect LT shoes in exactly my size. Turns out they are actually styled after men's bicycling shoes before the clipless era and they have Velcro closures! They are perfect! I've put hundreds of miles on them and the soles are stiff as well.

I attach a link to the shoes and where to buy them. (Or you can Google "lacoste protect shoes")

Before finding the Lacostes, I was using JOMA Indoor Soccer shoes, model LOZANO-101. They were a little too tight in the toes but otherwise perfect for toeclips. Unfortunately, I was fighting a problem with blistering of my right foot big toe. I had the shoe stretched at a shoe shop but still after 30 or 40 miles the intense pain in the toe would return.
