Sorry, gotta say it guys.
Are you driving F1 or something?
Get a pair of skate boarding shoes and you'll be fine.

The last time I skateboarded was when running shoes were made of canvas and had round patches on the ankles. Think Keds lol.

Actually Converse Chuck Taylor's aren't too bad for driving and toe/heel...I have several pairs and they do the job.

I agree. They make nice driving shoes. Besides, I could be wearing Alonso's racing shoes but it still will not make me a better driver.

Sputter

Maybe but you'll look cool doing it.
As they say.. "dress for success".

I saw Porsche Design driving shoes on sale at The Shoe Company at the Markville Mall tonight. They have a great looking black high top version for $120 made of supple leather with a nice soft, grippy and pliable sole.

Same here... although I find if I haven't worn the hiking boots in a while I tend to over-blip the first few downshifts since I cant feel a thing through the damn things!

Mark Lue

LOL... you must have small feet then...you know what they say about men with small feet.

Seriously guys, lets not promote the wrong idea here, I wouldn't want someone to drive off the road trying to H/T with improper footware.... them is expensive equipment u know.

Any shoes that you can drive in, you can heel and toe in, especially in the Porsche as the pedal placement is very good for the most part. I can heel and toe in my dress shoes, running shoes, light hiking boots etc. There is no time you shouldn't match revs on a downshift, so you need to be able to do it in whatever footwear you have on.

Pfaff Tuning GM
