Hi
Does anyone know if it is still possible to buy shoes with the old style cleats that were used with the pedal/toeclip combination. The cleat clipped into the back part of the pedal.

Many thanks

Probably some around but I sell some cleats for toe clips/platform pedals that bolt into the holes for LOOK 3 bolt cleats.
 
Or you can do what we all used to do before clipless... nail/glue a leather strip to the bottom of your shoe to act as the 'clip' for your pedals. Worked from the dawn of cycling until about 1990...

Look 3 bolt design. You can get rattrap cleats that use the rear 2 bolts, a pair may of come with your shoes, as Shimano often include them.

Thanks for asking. The Yellow Jersey (www.yellowjersey.org) and Mel Pinto Imports (www.melpintoimports.com) get small lots of NOS traditional shoes in limited sizes and cleats. You have to keep checking with them, though, because the popular sizes disappear fast.
