Slik tires-suggestions needed

I am wondering if someone can suggest a decent low-profile, perhaps, slik, tire for CX bike. I just want something on my bike when commuting and riding on road.
Thanks

I've been using a Hutchison Globetrotter on my fixed/winter bike for a bit now and it's really nice. 700x37c Nice rounded profile and pretty quiet. Got em off Nashbar site for ~$8-10 each.

If you have a regular road width rim, any road tire will do (e.g. Conti Gatorskins). If you want a wider tire, check out Avocet Cross IIs.
