I've tried so many kinds of footwear already and only 1 shoe measured up in terms of pedal stability for me and I think it was a Vans branded shoe that is made out of denim material. I think the problem with most shoes is too much padding on the soles or with soles too thick to provide stable footing for cycling. Vans shoes tend to have little padding with thin, wide, and firm soles which is terrific for stability on the pedals.

Sandals also tend to be good because of thin and firm sole with little padding. Some "driving" shoes are also good if the soles are wide enough as many tend to have narrow soles.

Unless the temperature dips below 60 F, I'll wear flip flops. They're also good in the rain provided the top tread design gives good wet grip. It's difficult to dry wet shoes but flip flops, no problem!
