These would work well for out and about, but for HPDE's, you might be in trouble--some will allow nothing other than a tie shoe. Just depends on what you're doing. I really like the adidas Porsche line of shoes; a bit pricey, but a very nice shoe.
I remember kenchan posting on some cool looking driving shoes he likes, but for the life of me I can't remember what they were called. That happens sometimes at my age...
What about Shoes for Winter Driving? Here in Wisconsin, it's not exactly like it is in Florida or California. I do have some Nunn Bush Shoes which do work, but they are rather thin all the way around so they are also not that warm; especially when it's -10 degress outside at some points.
Shoes that have grip in slippery conditions, are comfortable and warm, and best of all they work as driving shoes is what I need.
how does the sizing of piloti translate over from adidas or nike?
I take a size 12, regular width I think. Ive never had a pair of nikes or adidas shoes, but piloti's 12 seems to be the same as new balance's 12 and rockport's 12.
I motor in my Diesel Remy's. They seem pretty similar in soul slimness to these that MINI are touting, and not terribly different in price. The slim soul gives me a better feeling of the accelerator. I've tried driving in my Docs, and my acceleration was all over the place. Such big heavy shoes are just too awkward in such a wee car.
Well i don't know if anyone else has these...but i got two pair, one black, one grey....Of the Puma MINI driving shoe
+1 I wear my Puma MINI shoes every day to work! They are almost worn out....I bought two pairs and they are both about done! Good thing they just came out with clubman shoes!!

I'm either wearing Pilotis or I'm barefoot!
Tried the Pumas, didn't like the fit and they were to narrow for me to "heel & toe".
