Good Racing/Driving shoes for Heel&Toe shifting

Well, i was reading a current issue of import racer, and came along these great shoes that they had reviewed. Piloti, they seem to like these shoes for driving, they're designed specifically for perfect execution of heel&toe shifting. http://piloti.com/monaco.html to check them out. I ordered a pair already.

I currently just use a pair of good ol' Chucks for driving, but thought these would be great.... whadda guys think?

Just get a pair of And1 slipon style shoes.....

they're light, comfy, flexible and look great.

Don't get those queer racing shoes.

i got a pair from nike a WHILE back. to me, as long as it's narrow and not slippery. it's good. plus, time would help too. now I could heel-toe with all my shoes.
