I’ve been using the shimano rx8 gravel shoe to decent effect. Not explicitly narrow but not as wide as their road offerings unless the newer versions changed. It fills a slot somewhere between road and off road shoe between stiffness and cleat style. Recessed 2 hole cleat mount as requested, decently light for the price and the sole is as stiff as some of their upper end road shoes. I’d call it walkable enough but it walks like a stiff sole road shoe just without the clickity clack of the giant road cleats.
