Simpson driving shoes; how do they fit?

03-03-2010, 03:33 PM

I'm going to order a set of the low-cut Simpson driving shoes and was wondering how they run on their sizes. I wear 13 in just about everything except Nike which run small making me order 14s. I have a pair of Simpson crew shoes in 13 but they seem a little tight. I was going to just go ahead and order 14s but wanted to see if anyone had any experience with these. Thanks.

I bought a pair at Englishtown about 4 years ago because the sneakers I wear were bulky and I got no feel for the pedals in the car.Paid $90 for them.Money well spent.The first pair only lasted about 1 1/2 seasons.A chunk of the heel came off.The current pair are 3 years old and are fine,and still comfortable as a pair of old slippers.

Thanks guys. I really appreciate the help. I'll order a pair later tonight. They're on back-order now (what I get for having huge feet) but should be here when the car's ready.

BTW, that's the best episode of PINKS ever! Those two stick cars are cool!

Ed, did you say Billy wears cheap perfume? Wow!

I wear a size 9 and I have size 9 Simpson shoes and they fit great! Jim

I don't think I'd want to see that.
