Looking for track shoe tips

My wife and I each have a pair of Hunziker shoes.

They do run narrow, which would work well for you. I had to order a size up to fit my wide feet.

They are comfortable enough to wear daily and they are a nice driving shoe.

Also, it looks like they are 30% off right now with the promo code 'thanks'

I have a fairly basic Simpson SFI-rated shoe. It has a high top and a fairly stiff sole, which helps with heel-toeing. I think they are about $100.

I have two pair of track shoes, but the one I like wearing the most are a five year old pair of Sparco SL-3. They're narrow, fit like a glove and grip well. And you know how it is, everyone loves his old shoes because your feet pay the price when you break new ones in.
 
I just received a pair of Puma Drift Cat 5 carbon and for $30 I'm very pleased. They will be used for drives in the foothills and not for the track. The size 13 or 47 fit me well with my narrow foot. As BPRacer stated they are slightly shorter than my Nike's of the same size.

I ended up purchasing some Piloti's on Black Friday for $45. It was a heck of a deal because they went back up to $130. I will use them as a fun driving shoe as I believe I'm getting some Alpinestars from Santa this year :)
