my question is

where are you people going that is fine to wear sneakers but not fine to wear mtb shoes?

i could understand if you were looking for a cycling shoe that looks like a dress shoe

why pretend you didnt ride a bike to get where ever you are if the atmosphere is casual

give me stiff shoes and ill clomp around in my cleats anywhere or give me a bus ticket

also i would rather carry two pairs of shoes than ride one that is made to walk in
