onzabikerdude Posted September 5, 2005 Report Share Posted September 5, 2005 is there a certain shoe that can be worn for best grip when riding, or do i stick to normal trainers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clownbike Posted September 5, 2005 Report Share Posted September 5, 2005 I ride with any soft soled shoes, for example adidas shells (old skool run DMC style). Vans are also popular But any cheap shoe with a soft sole works. I do warn you the shoes will get ripped and have imprints of your pedals on the sole, so just use them for trials not going out. I'm pretty sure there are more topics on the forum with this nature, have a quick search. They could tell you about trials specific shoes.....which i have no i dea on. Good luck....and buy white trainers because they are cool (Y) Neil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigpimpndave Posted September 5, 2005 Report Share Posted September 5, 2005 I ride in my old Levi trainers from Topman (Y) they aren't that bad really. I used to ride in DC alias's they were really good (Y) ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
