I use mtb shoes and pedals on my road bike - Shimano M-31. They work

They do not feel very tight so I still hope to break them in - or at
least use them for MTB.
But I need something I can use for 40-50 miles ride. Any suggestions?

I've been using MTB for 200 double centuries as do many others. It's
not the pedal, it's the shoe. I happen to use Shimano T091, which I
think is now T092. It's a shoe with recessed cleat and unlugged sole.
They run wide and also will stretch a bit.
