For track-day adventures or for simple day-to-day driving, having comfy kicks is a good idea. Chicane Racing’s Speedster series shoes appear to be up to the task. The rubber soles — claimed to be fuel- and oil-resistant — are supplied by the Michelin tire company. The suede cowhide uppers are said to be comfortable and durable, and there’s added cushioning in the arch and heel areas. Choose from blue, red or black, and men’s full and half sizes from 8 to 13, and women’s sizes from 7 to 10.
