what shoes do you wear for flat pedals.
Good point. I wear the same shoes with clipless and with platform: some old MTB shoes similar to Shimano AM5 (one velcro strap over the top). But I've wondered if someone would make "bicycling footbeds," shoe footbeds which have a stiff carbon-fiber or plastic bottom layer, to stiffen-up non-bicycling shoes.
