Description
Precision driving demands a different kind of footwear. The Prototipo returns to the driver’s seat with an asymmetrical design engineered to translate every vibration of the engine directly to your foot. Originally launched in 1999 and favored by legends of the track and the screen, this isn’t just a revival; it’s a re-enginee...

Classic driving shoes
Piloti makes excellent, great looking branded shoes for automobile brands and shoes under their own name. They fit snugly so you may need to order at least one half or a full size larger than usual. I am normally a US9 but order US10 for Pilotis. Also, be careful of the sizing on websites. Some are in EU sizes, some in UK sizes, and some in Piloti sizes (possibly same as EU). I ordered through Amazon because exchanges were easy and it took me several tries before I got my size right. I also recommend ordering Piloti socks with your shoes. They are not expensive, are well made, and add to the comfortable fit of the shoes.

They run small…real small
I own multiple pairs of Pilotis. Most are a few years old. Both of the orders of the new ones are the same size as my old shoes, but are smaller, in one case so tight I couldn’t even begin to get them on. The return/exchange process is ok, but from the time I initially ordered shoes to the time I have something I can wear will be six weeks.

reintroduced Prototip
It’s great to see that Piloti has reintroduced the Prototipo, my favorite (non-FIA) driving shoe. The colors seem fresher and the materials seem a little tougher than old Prototipos. Unfortunately, the sizing has changed, and there aren’t any half-sizes. It took a couple of tries to determine what size Pilotis I wear now.
