Ugh, toe clips. Not a fan at all. Clipless are easier to get out of in a pinch, which is safer; have a more rigid connection, so you have more power; and you can buy them with recessed cleats so walking isn’t a problem. But you’re absolutely right, the shoes aren’t strictly necessary. Just way better than the alternative, IMO.
