I vaguely recall reading someone mention soccer shoes as a good clip shoe. But upon recalling that tidbit, It occurred to me that soccer shoes have cleats.... (don't they?)
Every model of soccer shoe is made in several applications. You have FG or firm ground (normal sized cleats), SG or soft ground (extra long cleats) and you have TF or turf (no cleats). There are also soccer shoes made for indoor soccer which have no cleats either.

The adidas sambas are a good example of a indoor soccer shoe.

I can see how indoor/turf soccer shoes would work well. Pretty stiff sole and usually are not too bulky, to be able to fit into cages.
