These have got to be THE MOST COMFORTABLE shoes I've ever owned!! I think I'll try a couple other styles/colors now.

Why is this Z06 related, you ask? Well, aside from the cool design intended to assist heel-toe shifting, the black with "tifosi" red stitching will BEAUTIFULLY complement my new '09 2LZ's ebony seats with red stitching...

How much and where do you buy them?...

dvandentop

yes i am going to get the sebring ones or the protopito ones in all leather, i already wore out my ones i had bought last year and those were just the 32's they call em.

they are really comfortable would wear mine more in the winter but not much grip on the bottom of them

I got them from Endless.com (owned by Amazon) for $149.95. I'd have gotten them from a forum vendor, but Endless offers free shipping both ways to overseas military addresses and I wasn't sure of the size. I normally wear an 11 which is what I ordered, and they fit perfectly! Seriously, they're so comfortable, that when I got home I actually kept them on the rest of the night. I've NEVER done that with shoes before. Also, I have flat feet, and while I wouldn't say these have like orthopedic support (I didn't expect that), they certainly weren't devoid of arch support either.

I've been eyeing the saddle brown leather Prototipo's for a long time. Those will be next I think.

I always wear my Piloti 32's when i drive the Z. It's like Isotoners for your feet.

Go walk around the mall for a few hours and bet you wont think they are the most comfortable then. They are nice but solely for driving IMO.

Just ordered a pair of Sebring's! I hope that the color "classic Saddle" is a nice complement to my Sunset Orange Z........We Shall See!!!

Inventory varies so keep checking. I have these shoes in black, brown & saddle

That's a great price!! I wonder if it's because it's an older model than the Sebring or because of the limited and odd sized inventory that they have left?

Do these shoes fit into the rules of SCCA, NASA, and for drag racing. Because they are nice looking and my shoes went into the garbage last fall.

They are not fire resistant, as per their website. They fall under the touring class.

I have 2 pairs of Prototipos that are super comfortable. I want to get the leather Prototipos too, but now I'll check these out for sure. Piloti had a closeout last year on a lot of the wild colors and I bought both pairs on Ebay for less than $50 per pair. They also had a deal at SEMA. If you wear the real nomex drivers shoes daily as opposed to the touring line they wear out very fast. There were some of the pro-line nomex shoes on Ebay last fall too.

I'm skeptical of buying shoes online only because of possible fit issues...

Any retail stores carry these?...

King Tut

I have heard they are carried in ROSS stores. I have 2 pairs of the Prototipos and an additional 2 pairs of 2 other models I can't remember. I love all my Pilotis and wear them whenever I drive my Z06. I have gotten all of my pairs for around $30 each when I see someone post up a a deal for them on slickdeals.net or other enthusiast websites.

markiemark

I buy from sportsmansguide.com. It's hit or miss but over the past year I've acquired 4 pairs all for under $30 each!

King Tut

Yep sportsmansguide is where I got most of my pairs. I just couldn't remember the website name.

AAMC6

I'm 99% sure it's the same shoe. They may go by different names depending on who sells it.

Sometimes there is a full inventory, sometimes not. At those prices, they seem to go quickly. As I said, I've ordered 3 pairs over the last couple of years.

NICE just got some protiptio leather ones non vented for $95 shipped usually they are $150 + shipping

cant beat that, they are labeled lusso but are the same as the protipito it looks like.

Stingray23

I like the saddle Lusso.

JohnTheStigGalt

"Lusso" means luxury, which the Prototipos (and the Sebrings) are from the Luxury line of Piloti.

DSOM Z06

Me too but I just don't think that I can get my size 10.5 foot to feel right in that size 15 that they have available.
