As mentioned, bright colors in motion will get a drivers attention. There is a reason hunters wear orange. Here is a better pic of my Vittoria Ikon's, the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned...and they only cost $150.

Nooooooooooo! I got a pair during the CC TdF sale but this color was not available (or even an option) so I got white with red... whatever that is at the back. Fantastic shoes, love 'em but I wish they were the color you got.

I'm a big fan of neon shoes. The movement really does attract attention from drivers. In the colder seasons, I have some neon overshoes that work great. I rode a set of these for a few years:

And the biggest "problem" with Sidi shoes, is that once you buy them, you have to keep them for a long time since they last forever, and wear parts are replaceable and available. takes a long time to use up and Sidi shoe! when i got mine, and now, one of the few colors in my size that IS on sale is this bright hyper yellow! my favorite color for road use!

A guy blasted past me on the path a few weeks ago wearing some neon pink shoes. Between the color and constant motion they were definitely attention getters from a safety standpoint. His shoes were most assuredly fast.

I wear black shoes with colored or Hi-Viz for visibility. Besides, the black shoes make my feet look slimmer.

Is this a serious question?
Buy what fits and makes you happy...in white then dye them with a lightning bolt, add an LED for the circle of light and ride.
