Which decent casual SPD shoes? Dzr, Chrome, Quoc Pham, etc

I thought this at first as well (im assuming you mean the tongue digging a bit), but they just need breaking in, they should soon soften up, mine are comfy as fuck now.

Yeah, since posting that, i've slackened off the laces a bit and adjusted the strap, now they're lovely

Easy to walk in, stiff enough to cycle with and you don't have to carry any normal shoes with you, win win innit.
