I've been riding with clips and straps for years now. I'm building up a new bike soon, and would love to go clipless. However, one of my jobs involves biking place to place, and walking a mile or two between (I'm a dog walker), so I would want to have the most comfortable shoe for walking while having cleats, too.

I've looked at those DZR and Chrome shoes, and they look okay, but it still seems like most people say the cleats aren't recessed enough so that they don't hit certain surfaces. I feel like I'd need a shoe with deeply recessed cleats to be comfortable.

I'm sure the stiffness of bike shoes in general isn't the best for walking, but I currently wear hard shanked hiking boots anyway, so I'd imagine a dual-purpose shoe wouldn't be crazy stiff/uncomfortable in comparison.

Is my best bet to go for those dual-purpose "casual" shoes, or maybe some MTB shoes?
Does anyone have a favorite clipless shoe for walking?
