Nicholas hunziker shoes. If you go to his website, they don't have them in stock. Got a pair of his shoes off shoebuy.com.
I also have the pilotis which are better shoes, IMO. The hunzikers are very cool though.

Yup thanks to google image search I found his site; they are ALL out of stock, I contacted them to see if they would get them in again...

I have about 3 pairs of pilotis - I have wide feet and find that some of their styles are more comfortable (and better for heel/toe) than some of the "ballerina" driving shoes around ...

The "ballerina" driving shoes might be just what you need for a Cab with PDK.

Are special 911 shoes mandatory? What about shirts? Underwear??!!

If I don't comply will I have to cancel my order?

Depends. If it's a DD, no. If you're like me and it's mostly a weekend, fun car & a dream purchase - then anything that adds to the sense of occasion, IMO go for it! Hence, my fancy driving shoes, and I usually grab my Porsche Design polo, my PCA shirt, etc. before I hit the back road on Sunday AM. (Note to self, look for Porsche underwear on Amazon. ) ....T

Pap2828--

Those Tod's have blown up in popularity. Men's and women's. I'm sure you're selling a lot! You a rep for them?

They're pretty $$$. Renn discount??

They come in black??

Looks like the clutch is tough on the shoes! True manly man shoes.

At least they have ventilation.

No luck on the Porsche tutu, but CafePress does sell boxer shorts with 911 graphics on them. Now, I know what I'm asking Santa for!

If you're near a Ferrari store, you can sometimes find Tods nicely discounted. My wife bought me my Tods for about half off....T
