Maclennane Mar 2019 11:47am, 1 Mar 2019 20,672 posts	0 Maclennane Looking for a bike shoe which is durable rather than sleek or pretty. I prefer something not too clickety-clacky as I do't want to sound like Fred Astaire when I go into a pub to er fill my water bottle. Any recommendations?

But really, anything from the big manufacturers: Shimano, Specialized, Giro, Northwave or Sidi will do the job. Pick something that's comfy but reasonably rigid and which you can bear to wear in public.
