Its all about the Shoes!!

I know this isn't really Technical but it is very much apart of anyone whom Races.

I prefered shoes that were lite weight before I found driving shoes. Now I have about 5 pair.

So lets hear it... What do you wear on your feet when the pedal is down???

Started with Adidas Adi Racer Lows... great shoe but hard to wear all day especially if your standing still. And they will break your ankel the first time you try to walk up stairs... the center sole is only 1" wide. However driving is great and feedback is awesome.

Piloti Prototypio are great all around but more focused on comfort... little odd styling but still a standout performer.

Puma Speedcats are comon and cought on as a ladies shoe recently... I would be offended but they really aren't that great and the sole wears out like a set of super softs on a F1 car.

Oakley Karts are like wearing a stiff carbon plate for a sole. Harsh even after breaking in. However you feel everything... every little vibration.

Oakley Racer 2 this is by far my favorite of any driving shoe and rivals any other shoe I have ever had on my feet. Comfort is like wearing a slipper. Feedback is perfect and they break in nice and fast. I wear these nearly everyday and plan to get several more colors.

I have yet to try Sparcos or AlpineStars...

Tag... your it!!
