I keep a nicer pair nice shoes at work and change regardless of whether I'm riding clipless or platforms. The clipless shoes I use most often have recessed SPDs and are comfortable to wear and walk in almost anyplace.

I currently have 3 different bikes I commute on and a few different pedals that I rotate through. In the winter I use platforms with pins exclusively and that is what is on my winter bike. On the fixed gear I usually have "campus" pedals which are clipless on one side and platform on the other. I will use regular shoes for quick trips with it.

I also have a road bike and sometimes I have road pedals on it and sometimes I have campus pedals.

So the quick answer to your question is that I don't bring extra shoes with me.
