Maybe just what I need
 
I've never ridden clipless, and am reluctant to because I don't race and it sounds very impractical for street use (99% of my riding). I know there are SPD shoes that aren't too terrible to walk in, but all the ones I've seen look really stupid. However, just saw these on FGG, and they looked interesting:

What do you guys think?

In my very humble and modest and personal opinion, clipless is great for fixed gear street riding because it instantly lock you in and don't have to worry about tightening my straps everytime.

I want a set of fat straps and BMX pedals. Single Straps do not have enough foot retention for me.
