What driving shoes do you recommend?
I love my Simpson racing boots, but they don’t match my street clothes, and they’re a bit much for short trips. Same deal with my OMP boots. All of my other shoes lack the rounded heel and tend to catch on the floor and lack the smooth roll off for fine controll. Solid black leather would be best, but I’m open to other options.
I keep hearing this, but I don’t think it’s for me. So many people seem to like it that I’ll at least respect it, but I can’t imagine liking that.
I wear moccasins for this reason. Thin, responsive, lightweight. But then you do have to change when you’re done.
Thanks. This might be a good compromise.
Cool. Let me know if you like it. I use a more mass-produced one because they have a thicker sole (just soft leather on mine). Although my traditional ones would work if I got a smaller size originally (they stretched more than I thought).
If you want to feel what the car is doing, it’s great. If you want to feel the clutch point, it’s great. If you want to have precise throttle control, it’s great. If you want to have protection in a fire, not so great.
I believe you. I won’t go barefoot. I also intend not to catch fire.
