Especially if you've never had 5.10s before. For general purpose, I'd suggest the VXi's. Good grip (different from traditional 5.10s though), but light comfy shoe.

Guest Omega Man Posted January 24, 2014 Share Yip Have had mine since 2009 and they are still going strong. Soooooper impressed with that alone!Same. 3 Alps trips. many build days and even some riding and they are still fine. Which is a good thing cos replacements are somewhat pricey.

NicoBoshoff Posted January 24, 2014 Share My pair had some glue problems in front but that was my fault for cleaning them and leaving them in the Paarl sun to dry. Nothing Bostek shoe glue couldn't sort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay_B Posted January 25, 2014 Share Awesome, the Impacts it is then. I have to wear an ankle brace too and they look bulky enough for me to get my foot in with that on. Thanks for all the feedback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fantana Posted January 28, 2014 Share What is the sizing like compared to running shoes? My Nike Pegasus running shoe size and my FiveTen Freerider VXi size is exactly the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay_B Posted January 29, 2014 Share Looking around on buycycle and came across the Shimano AM45 and MP66 at good prices, however cant find much that compares them to the Five-Tens, so any experiences with the two and any comments or suggestions?

I've got MP66 shoes. They are light and cheap and do everything I expect of them. They don't have steath rubber or anything but if you want a cheap SPD shoe that you can walk in when the going gets too steep they are fine.
