How does the pedal grip compare to 5 10s? My old 5 10s are falling apart but can't find anything that's as comfy & grippy.

Wonder about the same. I use RideConcepts TNT, the 4.0 outer sole is as grippy as Five Ten Stealth, but does not leave rubber marks on the floor(6.0 seen on some older models is not sticky enough, but I think they use 4.0 on all models now), not great for midsummer, nor summer, but nice for autumn and spring. and dry winter when snow is not wet, and no deep puddles or foggy cold winter days with heavy winds. fine with wool socks on less extreme days, if it's fog it or damp it can feel several deg colder. but if dry and nice even in -10C it's fine with a pair of wool socks. For damp, foggy, or colder than -10c, or wet, or snow riding shoes with gaiter is needed, waterproof. I see Leatt offers that now, but I am skeptic towards coil zipper and a button, a button will last long, but the zipper will likely wear out eventually. Northwave Multicross GTX has a proper gaiter, but heel area is a bit too big for me with size 44 ,even with Space Brace 2 I get some lift off. Gaiter was too loose without the braces, but with it fit's perfectly, I need to use ankle braces anyway. But I needed waterproof shoes for walking in wet snow, riding trough deep puddles, not using plastic bags as a gaiter or to buy gaiters, the best solution was to buy shoes. But the sole is super stiff, even at the ball of the foot so award to walk in. It's almost as stiff as a plank. Grip was bad too, it required me standing or putting power down or foot could slide off too easily. So with these shoes I can ride in -10c and colder and be warm, and in foggy and windy days.

One of my MOZ ratchets fell off on the gravel climb before I even got to the trail. (brand new) I got it back on but don't exactly trust them for longer rides any more. Have you had any issues with this system? Really was stoked about the shoes otherwise. (They do run a bit big though)

So, in short they made the shoes softer, as in going back to a design everyone ditched in better shoes, because soft shoes actually make the feet hurt on long descents 🤔

There is a fine line and honestly that tolerance is different for all riders. Some riders can ride in shoes so soft and flexy my feet cramp within 3 minutes if a downhill. Others are so stiff you lose all pedal feel. The goal here was to not be so stiff they lose control but offer enough support and cushion to help keep feet feeling fresh.

@@TheLoamWolf true, I fall somewhere in-between, as in cramp up slightly, but not unbearably, however after switching to stiff shoes (Shimano GR7 in this case) I'm never going bach, the lack of feedback was weird at first, but I soon got used to it and definitely prefer it that way. One slight disadvantage being that stiff shoes need more pronounced pins or concave pedals to grip properly at the ends, since the shoe has a slight curve by itself.

I have a pair of the old 3.0 flats and they are extremely stiff. Almost to the point to where you feel like you are standing on a board. I now have a pair of five ten shoes that are more comfortable and one thing I noticed is the rubber compound on the five tens is softer and they stick to the pedals better. I'm intrigued by these though.

i just got this shoes last week! they are legit! only downside is they are too soft and doesnt give you that support and the sizing is a little too big. im 10.5 on 5tens and etnies and on this shoes my 10.5 are slightly big so i might just sell this one's and get a size 10. but for grip its gonna be hard to chose between this and 5tens. leatt actually nailed this shoe design. if they gave this a little support its gonna be my MTB shoes until something better is released.

Too soft where? With five ten, Ride concepts I use EU44(US10.5), but I need to for the width as I have 11cm wide foot. So maybe I could down size with Leatt? What's your foot width at widest point? For me I fit in 44, just enough place to not squeeze my pinkie toe, but I do have extra room in front of my big toe.

As someone who has worn vans for casual wear for nearly 15 years, they cost about $100 and are nowhere near as durable, comfortable or offer the support when riding. If I’m off the bike, vans all day, but for riding, I need more support and a shoe that lasts.

@@TheLoamWolf Vans seems to have a sale every other week, so I buy when prices are about $30 a pair. Of course, MTB specif shoes can last longer, but I remain unconvinced that they require an average of $150 in price. I received a pair of CB shoes last year as a gift, and they are great. However, I don't feel they justify almost five times the cost of a comparable "non-MTB" marketed shoe.
