Sidi Dominators and SPDs are the true fashion choice for long distance riding. Stiff soles are good. Being able to walk around is good. Almost all the local randonneurs use this combo. If you want to be more fashionable, get single-sided SPD knock-offs. I run those in summer and switch to double-sided in winter because they're easier to get into while wearing booties. Did a mountainous 400k in 18 hours with this combo. I know, not fast, but decent.
