hmmm...
I bought a pair of the shimano DX ones a while back thinking they might be a good trade off between skate shoe looks and spd friendly function but to be honest, they're keeping their 'new' looks a bit too long - and they're also bit dorky - i a kind of 'i need these to straighten out my odd shaped ankles' way.
The pub test last sunday night proved this theory - with lots of smirkey looks from unwashed box-room-masturbator-student-types.
oh and the spd-jesus-creepers - wrong on too many levels.
Though it's tempting to buy a pair and wear them with chunky socks and my WAC shirt.
