I usually try and ride in shoes without lugged soles. Also plastic BMX pedals work well because even if they have pins, they usually aren't all that sticky and they wear down.
The classic combo is wide velcro straps and Odyssey Twisted PC pedals, I've got some Haro Smallblock pedals that have few pins and a deep concave and they work great.
Basically any $10 plastic BMX pedals will work probably better than fancy, grippy aluminum ones.
