That's my thought on why I haven't purchased a specific driving shoe yet... I keep thinking I'll not like them, however, I'm tempted to pick up some Puma's for trying it out.

 

I have the sparcos and love them comfy

 

I've never tried driving shoes but I second some flat shoes. My personal favorite are Converse slip on shoes (they're comfy), but I can see Chucks being good as well.

 

after making the switch to my sparcos. i am uncomfortable to drive on track without them. makes my feet feel more in tune with the pedals.

 

I use my SFI shoes from Crow safety. Super comfy, like fire resistant slippers with a thin flat sole to feel the pedals. Its possibly the most comfy part of my safety gear.

 

Skate shoes have always felt good to me; the soles are fairly rigid and flat, and the tongues are nice and cushy I had these Sheckler Etnies, but looks like skate shoes have changed some since 2007...though they are probably still rigid and flat...nothing safe about them, just feel good.

 

as much as i hate DC now, these look kinda nice

i do usually just drive in my chuck taylors though

 

I have 3/4 sets of speed cats, use them on/off track. Probably will get a "real" racing shoe soon along with suit

 

oo those DC ones look nice!

 

porsche test drivers use converes chuck taylors. they double wash them and they're ready to go. if its good enough for porsche, its good enough for me.
