I use socks eh, because until I have a solid pedal set up I fear the G25 pedals are too delicate to wear any kind of shoe; perhaps water booties; carting, racing, sim racing shoes would be 'light' enough ; but socks or bare feet seem to have the lightest touch; besides the pedals are too small and close together for me to use any kind of shoe eh.:)

They are very nice indeed, and affordable at $35+S&H.. I reccomend everybody to check out the site if interested.. If your gonna look at site on a PS3 browser i recommend clicking an icon as soon as the page loads, it says SOON where the icons would be if not done quickly..

I tried like 20 times and cannot get into the site using Chrome .

Wonder if they are aware of this issue ?

If i remember well the PS3 browser uses an old version of Internet Explorer so you could try that.. Again, if at the bottom of the screen it says SOON place your cursor there, refresh the page and click before the icons dissapear and the word SOON pops up again.. The site is pretty simple it like step by step.. Explains shoe, pick color, size, grip or no grip, etc..
 
Thats what i did when i first got my wheel till my feet started getting cold.. lol.. So i found a sweet set of shoes at payless for $20 perfect for sim racing or driving in general..

Finally got it and you have to be quick on the draw .

Thanks

I bought these for weight lifting, but they also make rather acceptable shoes for pedal use.

Shame I actually hate Chucks with all my heart :P

Nice site.. Only thing is i dont understand Euros, which then means i dont know how much it is in $US, and wether some type of weird international fee is applied and what not... Mind my stupidity.. Other that that i found these (http://www.sportsdirect.com/lonsdale-benn-mens-115068?colcode=11506837) on that site and they seem just right.. I'd prefer a lil thinner on the sole but they look great.. I dont think Chucks would work well either.. I have a pair of Nike skate shoes with the same sole as a Chuck and they wasnt cutting it for me.. So then i went and bought these (https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/album.php?albumid=1223&pictureid=14643).. Hell of a difference..
 
You guys that got into Simboot, is there another link you could post that takes you to the shoes part?

i.e. www.simboot.com/shoes

I can't get in with Chrome or IE, and it doesn't matter how fast I click -- I never see anything but the "Soon" image.
 
l am a notorious cheapskate .
So what l did was, take a small handful of rubber elastic bands and wrap them around the pedals.
Works very well with just a pair of socks on your feet .
 
I go barefoot. Feels weird to play with shoes, and My feet are huge, so I could end up pressing both pedals with shoes on.
