To the OP: I am more attached to my shoes than pedals - after cycling for a while with regular sneakers, my foot started hurting quite a bit. I bought cycling specific shoes after trying on a few, and they eliminated the pain completely. So any pedals that can accommodate my shoes are fine - though I must confess to a preference for clipped in vs. platform now. My pedals are hybrid - one side clips and the other flat, and I much prefer the clips to the platform side.
