Oh where.... is the perfect amateur shoe:

It's gotta have some sort of rubber sole so I can walk without risk of breaking my neck on the way to the loo at coffe break.
So I'd prefer MTB shoes.

However:
I don't like SPD cleats because I think they give me too little area to output power, so I am happy with my Looks.

No road shoes I have seen have any mentionable amount of rubber.

But there are no MTB shoes that have the 3 holes required for Look cleats.

And I won't use an adapter.


I just investigated Crank brothers quattros - they look like I need them, as their cleat is surrounded by a rubber area for walking.... The pedal is large so it would give me the large area I am dreaming of....

any other ideas?
