Driving shoes

>>16455799
Fuck shoes.
I live in LA, and barefoot is the way to go.

>>16455799
Smaller contact shoe helps. Technically almost barefoot driving would be optimal. Never tried five toed shoes, but they look comfy as fuck. A shame that in my country they are considered woman's clothing.

>>16455799
I recently started driving in leather shoes since I'm working in quality management and everybody is wearing suits, and holy shit it sucks finding pressure points in those things

I have an older pair of New Balance Minimus shoes that I like to wear when I go on long drives. They are similar, but still look more like something a normal person would wear.

Five Fingers makes me think someone wants to show me his vaping rig.

I wear these nike SB ultralight because the let you feel the pedals as well as give you the support that your feet need. Basically any skateboarding shoes or similar will be excellent for driving because they are designed for transmitting the feel of what is underneath the shoe.

Boost shoes for max comfy

So do you guys put on a special pair of shoes just to drive or something?

>>16456810
When I just go for a drive for the sake of it, or when I have to drive longer distances, yes

I honestly use the thickest shoes I own, mostly Adidas. My explanation is, that they have really soft soles. Things like pumps and vans have those extremely solid bottom that is really uneven compared to your foot profile, whereas with a thick soft sole, you have your entire foot on a flat surface, which allows the clutch to feel attached to you.

>>16455799
I've always preferred to drive my sticks Barefoot. In my wagon the pedals are so close, I heel-toe with my pinkie toe. It's hilariously amazing.
I'll get a picture later if the thread is still up, it's too damn cold for this shit right now.

>>16455806
I've driven barefoot once, when my shoes got fucking soaked during a very bad downpour and I had to take them off when I got to the car. Driving barefoot was okay.

Remember: Big. Toe.

>>16456528
They're very comfortable and grip very well when working out, and when driving you can feel the pressure points of each pedal really well.

Can't be any worse than driving a manual with big steel toe boots on. Jesus christ that shit is miserable.

I wear new balance trail walking laceless shoes. They're comfy, and I don't need to feel the pedal very much on my '79 T/A 'cause it's so stiff.

Not him, but gee whiz, maybe you're right, I can't think of a single thing disgusting about walking outside barefoot, using pedals that have been used by people with shoes on their feet, shoes that might have poop or blood or trash juice or piss on their bottoms, now grinding off onto the soles of your own feet. Nope, nothing comes to mind.

>>16456043

Who said anything about walking outside barefoot?

>using pedals that have been used by people with shoes on their feet
No one but me drives my car.

Any other points you want to make?
Or is your post solely based on the idea of letting random crackheads with bleeding feet drive your car?
Maybe that flies where you're from, but I'm not into that shit.

Is there any thin driving shoe that look good for wide feet?

Sure is a good thing bacteria don't migrate. You know, like off of shoes, your own or passengers. Unless you're going to tell me you've got no friends/family/coworkers/neighbors and you only wear the shoes you put in your car indoors and keep disposable shoe covers around when you've got to walk around a car park or a sidewalk or across a street. In which casr, congrats on the crippling OCD and life of solitude.

>>16462117
>Sure is a good thing bacteria don't migrate
Lol.
Wait, who were you calling OCD?
If you're that worried about evil bacteria jumping from your floor mats up to your pedals, you should probably just kill yourself now.
Let me guess, you wear latex gloves when you drive, so that the bacteria you touch doesn't migrate onto your steering column?

>>16462057
They don't sell racing shoes where I live, got this with discount and they do the job. Only bad thing is the ferrari logo but I can simply ignore it.

I originally bought steel toe boots for work and they were so comfortably I stopped wearing anything other than my vibrams, coincidentally. With the vibrams I can control the gas just by flexing my big toe. With my boots I have no problems either, just a little heavier on the gas because of how thick the soles are. Having my toes immune to stubbing and being able to set heavy things on top of them is a bonus, and while they're big they're surprisingly not clunky at all.

That's exactly the kind of thing an OCD person would type. Detailed explanations of why they wear gloves and stuff. I just used basic knowledge of bacteria to cajole you into revealing your power level, and you filled in the rest.

>>16462453
Ok, how do I describe it? Driven barefoot a few times, it's never felt right. Feet don't seem to grip the pedals in the way a shoe does, can't put pressure in them the way I want, etc.

>>16462462
I look at it the opposite.
Shoes stop me from fine tuning the pressure I put to the pedals, especially the gas. It's like there's something blocky in my way that always makes the pressure too much or too little.

>>16462392
I remember seeing a worker somewhere who had them on. Can't remember where, but they put a box down and stick their foot in, and when they pull it out they got a little cover on their shoes. Like a hospital hairnet thing, but for feet, stuck in a big kleenex box.

Metal pedals are no problem. But then again your average American seems to have issues walking on anything but polished floors. Which kind of answers a lot of the questions about why they wear their shoes in the house or seeing porn in which the actors could be stark naked if it weren't for their sneakers.

Those aggressive tractor pedals with 4 spikes per square inch can hurt though

>>16464815
>they wear their shoes in the house
Fuck that noise. I never do that shit.

>porn in which the actors could be stark naked if it weren't for their sneakers

That's just terrible.
But the girls should keep spikes on because it looks good.

Accidentally wore my crocks "my taking out the trash shoes" when I drove my car one day. Honestly the best shoes for casual heal toeing and was able to feel peddle vibration that I didn't know existed. Crocks ftw

The five-toed shoes don't give protection to the toes if something drops on them that's for sure. I wonder what would happen if one of those small appendages got snagged into something and pinched off?

It's a fairly common opinion that people who wear flashy or unique stuff to the gym are doing their "look at me" shtick.

>It's a fairly common opinion that people who wear flashy or unique stuff to the gym are doing their "look at me" shtick.

This is true, but the five toe shoes are a legit option for people looking to deadlift who aren't allowed to do it in socks, and for whatever reason don't like Converse shoes.

Lifting shoes, the gaudy ones with the extra bit of heel and no squishy bits, also actually help with squats. Especially if you have flexibility issues. They also help manlets touch the ground when benching.

Knee wraps/sleeves also help if you feel like cheating, or have knee issues because you never actually learned proper form on squats.

Carrying chalk around with you also makes you look like a tool, but if you sweat a lot and don't feel like dropping 3 plates on your chest when benching, it's useful stuff.

However, if you lift in a unitard or those strange sort of misshapen tank tops, there's no excuse for you.

>Carrying chalk around with you also makes you look like a tool,
You can use antiperspirant products on hands to keep them dry. I've seen 5 different products sold online with some hyped up to the max (and inflated price too). They're widely used by sports athlethes. I'm tempted to try it this summer since I don't like feeling a sticky steering wheel which then makes me clean it every day.

I mentioned it in this thread since gym's were mentioned. My previous solution to damp hands while driving was to use those unpadded Gold's Gym branded gloves sold at walmart. Definitely not just good for use at the gym.
