For ease of use, you can’t beat a pair of flat MTB shoes. Casual in appearance with Super tacky soles for supreme grip. Expect them to be more flexible than a pair of clipless shoes and cool enough for a post ride social. Again, Specialized and Northwave are great options as with the clipless range, but Ride Concepts and DMT also bring strong contenders to the field. Looking for a year-round option? Look at a Velcro lace covers to keep the elements out.
