not quite the same but: https://nycbikes.com/item.php?item_id=415

You could probably get some metal clips powdercoated but that'd be for like a show bike or something due to the expenses and fragile-ness of the paint.

i'm going plastic toe clips because the laces of my shoes always get caught in the 'too-narrow' mks toeclips. i can only wear slim shoes like sambas with those.

i plan on using them with double straps so it won't be as much of an issue. you should've given them to me instead of tossing them!

if there were metal clips that weren't made for thin indoor soccer shoes only, i'd be all over them

do i have to like, bend my clips or anything? i have dunk hi's, lows, chukka boots, air max 1's etc etc. the mks clips just get tangled under my foremost laces.

all i can pretty much wear are slip ons because the gates are so low. i've tried prying them up, but they just spring back down.
