 What makes your walking or running shoes good, flexibility, is what makes them bad for riding.
You want the pressure of the pedal to be spread out to a wide area rather than a small “hot spot.” Cycling shoes, like helmets, now enjoy wide usage. Used in conjunction with “clipless” pedals, cycling shoes keep your feet in the proper alignment on the pedals and maximize your efficiency. Road shoes are light and don’t provide much in walkability. Mountain shoes mount the pedal cleat within the tread of the sole, making walking much easier.
