Wearing boots in the S2K
Hi. I'm looking at a pair of black leather thick-soled boots online right now and like them. However, I'm thinking they might be kind of clunky when getting in and out of the S2000, and they might not be so deft when using the clutch and brake pedal.
Perhaps for an S2000 owner it's better to wear a pair of lightweight oxfords for ingress and egress and for proper dexterity and feel on the pedals. What do you think?

I used to be in the military and with combat boots it was a PITA! The worst thing was getting boot polish on my rocker panels! It made driving so annoying as well.. As for the Oxfords I have no comment.

I am a left leg below the knee amputee. I can't feel sh*t. I can out drive most of my friends when it comes to a manual trans. I feel your pain, as it's been a real issue for the last 6 years. Try not being able to bend your ankle. It makes for an interesting day.
It was worse when I first lost it. I would always be hitting the brake pedal at the same I
