Betcha Viberg or Beck's could custom build a set of boots with the fittings for you.  I've seen it done with golf cleats; the process is basically the same…

And you do need a new pair of boots.:D

Chris, I know, but these are shoes…..This is what I am getting:

Thanks Jii

Glad to be of help!

Why even bother with clip ons?  I personally can't stand them.  I use studded pedals.

@Giles:

Pfft, if you want to be reasonable about it, I guess those are ok.;)  I couldn't resist the chance to suggest a gratuitously over the top choice, though.

I am not using clips atm, as I only have one boot with a clip and hate it.  It is amazing how much more efficient it is when you can pull up as well as push down…

Giles, unless I'm already too late, I would seriously recommend Five 10 minnaar's:

They have the the stealth sole, which is the stickiest rubber I've ever used on a shoe full stop, plus this model has the SPD option too.  Best of both worlds.

I have a pair of DZRs for 'casual' town cycling when I need to walk as well. They're pretty good.

For a lot more suggestions, check this thread out.

[Giles]

DZR's look cool.

Which thread?  This one?

Specialized Stumpjumper. Love it!

[Giles]

Now,  that looks like a trail….

[JCar2666]

Jesus specmvl!  Where is that trail?  I dream of places like this to ride my mt. bike.

[specmvl]

Vinschgau, South Tyrol. Amazing trails over there and 300+ sunny days/year. Went there for a 2-week trip of pure MTBing last year. Highly recommended, though there isn´t much else to do besides riding your bike.

[JCar2666]

Definitely gonna have to google map that.  I don't have a clue as to where that is.  Sounds and looks amazing.

[specmvl]

It is in the Italian Alps. Looks more like Austria, though.
