Special bike shoes?
The special shoes they make are for accepting cleats. the particular pedals accepts a special cleat. There are a few different styles of pedals and dozens of styles of shoes. I would recommend SPD style pedals for you with some MTB style shoes. Here is a good place to see many styles. http://sheldonbrown.com/harris/pedals.ht...





Most professional bike shops have a good pedal selection too.


This is but one popular style shoe and pedal.

Reply:If you aren%26#039;t interested in clipless pedals yet, there are athletic shoes made with a few special features for cycling. I bought a par several years ago. For the most part these special features are just a fairly stiff sole and perhaps a tread pattern that might make it easier to flip a toe-clip and strap platform pedal over so you can stick your foot into it. Other %26quot;special features%26quot; are just a lot of reflective material for riding at night.





The bottom line is that if you are not going to go clipless, I would just get a pair of regular athletic shoes with stiff soles. The New Balance 800 series works well for me in that situation, but YMMV
