Giro Rumbles look nice but my feet hurt from looking at the pictures. They look so incredibly small. Hoped for a better solution. I've seen a way to convert normal shoes into SPD but it doesn't look proper at all

I've done that with a pair of trainers https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/134357/?offset=950#comment10150444 . It works and not too uncomfortable. You need quite a thick sole to stop the cleat hitting the floor as you walk though, to do it on a pair of shoes you'd maybe need to build the sole up a bit which could look strange.

I've come to the conclusion that no such thing exists. Giro Rumbles are okay looking in blue but I don't fit them. Shimano MT22s are fairly unassuming and great on the bike but are quite narrow, wear out quickly and basically impossible to get now. Flat pedals and sticky approach shoes are the best option, if you don't need retention
