If you are riding your bike for such long periods of time each day, comfort should be priority number one.

i do ride freewheel at work and use brakes but after work n weekends i started going fixed. its fun but im not very good brakeless yet and wanted comfy pedals and strapes too learn. i think i will stay with strapes freewheel cus they are so helpful for hills and power economy. plus deity pedals look sick compared to animal which is my second choice

Before going clipless I used these with Hold Fasts. Very comfy even with the pins in. I switched because the pedal of the foot i put down at stoplights started to become sticky making me look like a fool every once in awhile as I struggled to flip the pedal. I think I was unlucky though.
