Cycling shoe lust

[Dog]

I have a very old pair of Diadora's that I picked up for $20 (when I first started cycling 8 years ago) and a pair of Shimano's I picked up 5 years ago on sale. I'm not really into shoes I guess. They are both well used (lots of outdoor cycling and indoor spin classes), but haven't noticed any problems. I probably should look for a new pair - I've considered the Keen sandles, but live in WA and not sure they would get good use.

Ummm I had 4 now down to three.

One pair of Nike MTB shoes with nylon soles.
One pair of Lake touring shoes with nylon soles (now gone to shoe heaven)
One pair of MTB carbon soled Nikes well worn (my spare pair) which I use for road riding
One pair of carbon Sidi MTBs which I wear road riding and are my everyday pair at the moment.

Got to have a spare pair in case my main pair get wet and don't dry overnight or need repairing. My Nike MTB with nylon soles are for if I go touring on a MTB and want to walk around. The Lakes always leaked red dye onto my socks so so they had to go!

I'm starting to try a minimalist approach. I have a few other pairs of shoes, but honestly I never loved any as much as my original SIDI Dominator 5 purchase. So much so that they finally wore out the fabric and padding in the back and the velcro was almost useless... so I purchased the exact same shoe, just in the modern color.

2007, meet 2012. (And thanks, TE, for the 20% sale!)
