Driving shoes
I've been looking for a pair of Piloti driving shoes for my DH, and having no luck can anybody recommend a different brand in a similar style, they need to be narrow as he has size 9 hooves but there is not a lot of room in the Caterham pedal box
Many thanks

If they're the one's he's comfortable in, you could buy them from the states on line. I think it would be hard to suggest any other, without him trying them on, and feeling the pedals through them.0 -
Thanks mikey we not in the states untill Jan/Feb and we've had no luck finding the style he wants prototipo trainer type (out of stock everywhere) I did dare suggest a trip to Italy
why i was hoping for a different brand name so he could try them on first, but all we come up with is the loafer type or racing boots
cheers tho0 -
has he considered bed socks
this way he will feel the pedals better and find heeling and toeing a more direct experience
a nice zetec under the hood would help too0 -
Would be great and he would in a heartbeat, but it's illegal he's got a 2ltr duratec with trottle bodies (195 bhp) go's well enough

Is it worth contacting this seller to see if they can get size 9s?

In the Westfield I use a pair of old "Puma Sprint" trainers, they're proper old school narrow, basic, thin soled running shoes..... Never found a better pair of driving shoes, short of buying the very expensive purpose made things. They still make em too...“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”
