[UPDATE]

If you guys are looking an affordable pair of driving shoes, I believe I have found a really good pair.

They are called "Bullet" by Saucony, you can have them for as little as $40.

Just thought I would let everyone know about them.

i can't drive this car barefoot, the way i let off the clutch i'd skin my feet after a drive. I'm use to letting the clutch slide against my shoe to let off the first few inches.

driving shoes do help though, i got so used to them when i wore sneakers i found my self slowly revving the engine at a light without knowing until i was at 2500rpm lol...

That's what I was thinking. I drive in Doc Martin work boots, flip flops, cheap tennis shoes, Nike football cleats, ASICS running shoes, hiking boots, Vibram Five Fingers... pretty much whatever is on my feet. Never had any issues or preference.

Lol I do this all the time in my steel toed shoes.

Puma speed cats are nice for driving. Walking, however is a painful affair in them at least for me.

Oakley Makes some nice ones. I had the white hot laps when I was a valet but you can't walk around in them, they wore out real quick.

i've noticed that too, walking in some of the puma shoes becomes painful cause of the heel and little support in the middle... some arne't bad soccer shoes though for indoor

I don't think this is a strange a question as others. I drive best with adidas shell tops.

Wearing running shoes, hiking boots, or dress shoes affects my shifting. But...this is probably because I drive most often in the shell tops.

I prefer to drive barefoot though.

For when I want to pick up hoes, and still drive fast: adidas Porsche Design CL - Free Shipping, Return Shipping - Your shoe store.
Almost every pair of nice shoes I own are adidas. Those blue and white ones are SEX. Thanks for the link. I will own them very soon. Unfortuanately, probably before one of your occ kits LOL.

I did buy a pair of adidas because they match my car. I'll see if I can find a link.

Honestly... I love driving in my New Balance 574s. Even when they were new I could feel the pedals well enough to out drive most people and they just get better as they wear.
