Best Driving shoes

Post by David Dixon » Mon Jul 03, 2017 10:35 pm

In particulat when driving my MGTF i prefer to wear my Converse All stars, thin sole for good feel of pedals but also with good grip. Sparco and Piloti (who advertise in Safety Fast) make driving shoes, or maybemore to the point, motorsport shoes. Puma and Addidas have Ferrari and BMW badged shoes, so wondering what other shoes are worn for driving, by MGF/TF owners?

I have driven many thousands of miles wearing Adidas Goodyear F1 trainers, I've had 5 or 6 pairs, but the two parties have terminated the partnership.
They were designed as a driving shoe and were great at it.

For work I currently have Kevlar capped boots, much lighter than steel.
Home to black Alfa 159 3.2 V6 Q4, blue MGZR160, green MGF VVC and grey MGF 1.8i, and red MG Maestro T16.
