I used shoes I built up/ modified with the assistance of the shoe repair guy in town.. *
just getting started he worked with me , behind the counter ..

Not the typical 'leave them and come back next tuesday' sort of scheme..

I use Toe clip pedals so my feet inside the shoes left wiggle room .. and I added supportive insoles..


* so when I needed a little work on the shoes, in Scotland, the methods of fixing them were well understood...
