I was looking to stop using my running type shoes,  These fit in size like a good dress shoe, not a sneaker.  They look good, are stiff enough.  Run a tad narrow but that is good for me, I still had to snug them up with an extra insole.  Very grippy on my MKS Touring pedals.

Now those look like bike shoes.  I used to wear ones like these for years.

I've used the Kursk shoes for years and like them on the bike. They aren't great if you're doing a lot of walking but that's not an issue for my use. I also have the "pro" version with SPD mounts.

 I recently listed a NOS pair of those Sidi Touring shoes on ebay and they sold within minutes to a guy in Japan. Fastest eBay sale ever ...  It would appear there are folks who like those Sidi shoes enough to have automated searches constantly watching for them. They are really nice cyclo shoes.

Jack, I sold a few pair on these lists and eBay.  Top dollar on eBay.  I lived those shoes for my narrow feet.  All gone now.
