The new Sam Hill 2 Five Tens are really great. They not only look good, but work great as well. If you ride flat pedals you need to be ridding Five Tens. The sole of these shoes stick to the pedals like Velcro. I cannot say enough good things about these shoes. Just buy them you will love them!

The rubber is great. So sticky, it almost feels as if you were clipped in. If you also ride a high quality flat, you actually need to lift your foot to adjust your footing. Fit is true to size. There are two small things I don’t like: a) The shoe is quite bulky, much more like a skate shoe than a regular sneaker. b) The lacing system needs some improvement. If you like to cinch down tight, you’ll notice it to be awkward. If you prefer loose shoes, you won’t mind and might actually like it. Overall pretty good to great.
Brands I'd also recommend: None compare!

Zappos gets a big + for the service they provided! My friend was visiting US for a short time and I really wanted these shoes from the States, since this is not available in India. I faced difficulty in using my credit card and Zappos customer care person who was online swiftly helped me resolve my issues. The shoes were shipped in next business day and reached my friend real fast. Thanks Zappos! About the shoes: I have wore them casually for a day now and they are pretty snug now, the shipped size and fit were spot on, no problems here. I guess I got to break them in. The sticky rubber is good, I haven't used it on my bike yet. .The design rocks! I will write a review about the shoes' performance later.

The five ten DH shoe's are amazing, I have ordered two pairs. Sizing: I ordered a pair of size 10s (because when I wear etnies that's the size I go with). Also a pair of 9.5s (because that's what I wear for for sportier shoes, like running or basketball). The size on this shoe fits very well what your foot is measured to be at the shoe store, so I wear the 9.5s in this brand of shoe. Comfort: For mountain biking I have worn just about every type of shoe. If you don't use clips then the five ten DH's are arguably the best for mountain biking. They really do grab the pedals well and compared to etnies, Nike, Converse, or CD shoes these are far superior for any type of mountain activity. They are very comfortable, don't slip on rocks very easily when climbing or hiking (if you haven't read the description for the rubber on the tread of the shoe, you need to. these shoes really do what the description says). One more thing, I don't have the greatest knees. When I wear certain shoes eventually my knees will start to feel it. I have not had that happen with these shoes. They are very supportive, very comfortable for jumping 'round in and being rough or chasing my bike when I lose it. I wear these shoes everywhere! Just not on gym floors, the rubber is great for outside activities but it leaves the worst streaks I have ever seen on indoor floors. I suppose that has something to do with exactly what they are made for. Style: All my friends think they are awesome, girls I meet even like them and have sought out to buy a pair for themselves and I like wearing them 'round here cause I haven't met anyone else that has them (small city).

About Five Ten
A family owned company, 5.10 (also known as Five Ten) has stood at the forefront of fine craftsmanship, high-performance and fashion forward technical designs within the outdoor industry since 1985. Born with a rich rock climbing heritage, 5.10 is known worldwide for the high-quality, fit and friction of their shoes, where footwear can make the difference between success and failure. Today, they continue to bring their climbing heritage to all of their products, as well as exciting innovation, quality craftsmanship and unmatched durability. Climbers, kayakers, mountain bikers, hikers, trail runners, canyoneers, and everyone else who wants technical/fashionable outdoor footwear depend on 5.10 for safety, state-of-the-art innovation, and out-of-the-box comfort.
As a huge climbing enthusiast, Charles Cole, founder and President of 5.10, knows that a good grip on a well-made shoe means everything. Determined to create a better rubber to make climbing easier, Charles developed Stealth© rubber soles, which increase the amount of body weight the rubber could bear before its bond broke away from the rock. By merely purchasing a new shoe, climbers could better climb with a sure-footed grip. Pushing the envelope even further, Cole continues to expand 5.10 soles even further with Stealth© S1, Stealth© C4, Stealth© HF (high friction), Stealth© Amphibia (water compatible), and Stealth© ONYXX, which provides 25% more friction and is twice as durable as any other climbing rubber available.
Stealth© rubber was just the tip of the iceberg for Cole and 5.10. Responsible for today's modern rock shoe design, Cole invented a plethora of firsts which include: the first sling shot rand, the first down-turned last, the first heel wedge to cushion impact, adding pull tabs on both climbing and approach shoes, baseball stitching to alleviate hot spots, graded midsoles to adjust the shoe's flexibility to different weights, the first self-draining water shoe and the first ankle to toe lacing on an approach shoe to allow for a performance custom fit. Throughout the years, there have been various 5.10 innovations, and in the years yet to come, their dedication will lead to many more.
As the shoe-of-choice for the world's top climbers, 5.10 is 100% committed to innovation and performance. All of their unique footwear designs have been produced with one goal in mind: to do what is best for outdoor sports athletes who use 5.10 shoes. From hiking to paddling to mountain biking, recreational and expert athletes alike know that Five Ten means more than footwear- Five Ten shoes are essential equipment for adventure. Rest assured that 5.10 is working hard on next season's models and that they will be bringing something wild, new and exciting into the world of adventure sports.
Five Ten Where unique comfort, durability and technological advances combine to create the best footwear in the world.

Bomb dizzle, so if you know Five Ten shoes, then you know just how amazing they feel on your feet. What you can do in your Five Tens is a whole other ball game. The Sam Hills are my favorite all around Five Ten shoe. You can do anything in them, night out, mtn biking, buildering, climbing, bouldering, the list continues. A few weeks ago while at LRC, I sent a v8, called the "chronic" and it was in my Sam Hills! Five Ten stealth rubber is the best; try the Sam Hills out and you won't be disappointed.
Brands I'd also recommend: free riders, five ten impacts, decents, and sam hill 1

These are very grippy and "lock-in" to flat pedals very well. Midsole absorbs a lot of shock. Sole works well for biking. They are very comfortable, don’t rub around the ankle or anything, big toe box like skate shoes. I wear them all the time - not just for biking. The only down side is the sticky rubber picks up a lot of dust making them slippery on hard floors. And if you don’t pick up your feet when you walk, you leave black marks behind. They are much taller than my previous skate shoes.

You simply can't go wrong with the 5.10 Impacts. I've read reviews and saw how good they are, but until you actually buy them and ride with them you just don't understand. They really stick to pedals! Just buy them! They fit accurately to size, which was nice.

These shoes are extremely burly and will protect your feet; because of that they will probably be a little hot in summer but that's no biggie when you can ventilate more of your upper body. I believe this is also the only model with a normal tongue, the others have the wrap around tongue which is slightly more trouble to put on and take off. They run a little small sizing wise. They're also very comfortable when you're off the bike walking around or hiking. Using these Impacts I was able to tackle more advanced trails over the weekend and take my riding skills to the next level. And that's the bottom line with these shoes. The awesome footing and grip on your pedals translates into more confident, efficient riding and faster learning and a fun time on the trail. I'm a believer now and you will be, too.
Brands I'd also recommend: nothing else compares!

Great shoe. I really like the rigid bottom, no flex with these puppies for direct power to the pedal!
