I have an older pair of Piloti's. No idea how much they were. I didn't pay for them.
If you want a somewhat cheap pair of driving shoes why not the Puma Speedcat? They're not really driving shoes but they aren't a million dollars either.
DC shoes... meh.

Go to DC shoes website, then click on teams, and rally. Then on the bottom, chose shoes.

Currently all it says is that they are set to release in spring 2007. Travis Pastrana and Ken Block have had these in development all throughout the 2006 season.

yeah i realized the high tops would be for race conditions but then they wouldnt sell very many.
These would be cool, a little less flashy and more black...low top of course

Should be appearing in April. The high top is made with nomex and FIA approved. The front of the show has a thin sole for good pedal feel. The lowtop doesn't have nomex and isn't certified. They are also supposed to be more comfortable to stand and walk in compared with a real racing shoe. Somewhere around $200 for the high top, $100 for the low.
