Default Re: which style of shoes suit to riding

What you looking at Mtb, Road? to use with Clip in SPD pedals

I ve seen quite a few guys using MTB shoes with road bikes,reason being,

You can walk in MTB shoes reasonably well, the cleat only clicking on high objects. With road shoes you have to walk on your heals.

I use MTB clip in Olympic shoes they are reasonably priced and comfortable, I won a pair of Nike top of the line MTB shoes recently, I’m only a size 8 but i have raised arches and instep, and they didn't have a shoe in that style to fit my foot. So it took another style they look cool, but are not as comfortable as the tenth of the price Olympics.
