_ If you look at most high end MTB shoes, they are just road
shoes with a lugged sole glued on. Any SPD compatible shoe will
work with those pedals, Shimano is the 800lb gorilla of MTB
pedals, everybody's shoes have to work with SPD pedals. I suspect
most road shoes would work as well if you glued some rubber on in
the right places.
_ There are plenty of ultra-stiff unwalkable MTB shoes, the
hard part is finding ones you can walk any distance in.
