?? Are we not all clydes? My cleats would always scrape on pavement or click on tile. They were Forte (Performance house brand, equivalent to something by Nashbar, I can't remember the name at the moment)
Tennies are not cut up so I can walk, they're cut up so my duck-footed-heels won't hit the cranks or chainstays. And because I pronate (or is it supinate?) I never use the insides of the heels anyways.
Pinned platforms FTW!
