Anyone here wear driving loafers?

or should one avoid it? If so, what brand do you wear? I don't own any but I'm curious because I'm seeing more guys wearing these shoes. To be honest, they don't look 100% masculine in terms of style. I doubt they're even comfortable for long walks or some light jogging.

Puma makes ill fitting shoes, their design is nice, but horrible for your feet.

if i cant wear driving shoes i wear loafers all the time. so i can feel the pedals and what not.

no for driving in sandals. driving barefoot itself is best, but is dirty. i only do that after i was my car and dont want my wet shoes in the car haha

Driving without your shoes is pretty risky especially if you get into an accident head on. Running without shoes is cool.

Look up Donald Pliner shoes online. Expect to pay around $300, but they will last you at least 2-3 years with everyday use...by far the most comfortable shoe I've ever bought.
