Gear Talk / Re: Best foot wear for touring?

I appreciate all the advice. I am leaving in two days so I'm not going to start with new shoes I haven't broken in yet but I do have a pair of Specialized road shoes I think I will take and some sandals for the nights. I think when I get back I will look into the cycling sandals though. Once again thanks for the advice.

Gear Talk / Best foot wear for touring?

« on: June 20, 2014, 11:20:33 pm »

I'm about to go on my first touring trip and I am wondering if I should wear my cycling shoes with cleats and bring a second pair of shoes for when I'm walking, or put toe clips on normal petals and save myself the weight of a second pair of shoes. The toe clips make my calves cramp a bit more but I can still ride 60 or 70 miles before this becomes a problem. Any thoughts?
