I have finally brought a pair of Camper Shoes. I have admired Camper shoes for a long time but never found a pair that I liked enough to buy. I think the designs are cute but don’t often translate well on larger sizes.
These are from the Danae series and have a lovely check print lining and a rose carved into the sole. Camper is known for attention to little details. These are one of the most comfortable heels I have put on. The moulded sole and heel is soft and light. I did a walking test with them and I was fine for four hours. I had a 40 minute rest and then I was good to go again.
I did a test run on the Trek and no problem and I can’t wait to try them with the Brompton, but we have more rain coming over the next few days.

As an aside, they do look very fetching. I like shoes with a bit of a heel, I find them to be a safe alternative to those dreadful clips that racers expect everyone to attach to their pedals, regardless of bike type.
Less chance of the shoe slipping off (seldom happens) and you do get a bit of extra grip when pushing ahead on the pedal.
