I'm on record as being a big fan of the Michelin Power Protection+, which seems to be almost unheard-of but has a bead-to-bead aramid breaker (instead of just under the tread) but also has a reasonably supple 110tpi casing. It's not as comfy as a GP5K or the like, but it is so, so much better than a Gatorskin. And quite regularly gets me home with glass and flints I just pick out and carry on with.
