That is, for the cycling part, it must have a slim shape both side to side and top to bottom, and it must have a sufficiently stiff but not overly stiff sole.
I don't have any particular recommendations for specific shoes. I have ridden a bike with a kinds of shoes and they were all some variation of "fine" for cycling. But I wasn't being very discerning and wore what I wanted to wear without regard to pedaling efficiency, or even grip. To me, the most important thing is to get a pair of clips with leather covers on them so that they don't dig into the toes and scratch/gouge the leather. MKS makes single strap toe clips, with a "deep" variation. Also half-clips that are strapless, in case you want to be able to wear boots with much bigger toe boxes. https://www.mkspedal.com/?q=en/product/term/13 Chester SF Bay Area -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
