I cannot recommend street shoes for cycling, at least for longer rides. The dropoff in efficiency is unacceptable.
Well if I find that I can detect a dropoff in efficiency, and that it's enough to bother me, I'll look into shimano mtb shoes (I'm all spd), but that's why I'll be trying out some platforms, to see how it goes.
