For flat pedal riding these shoes are unreal!
The grip is so good it is like you are cliped into spd pedals.
These shoes can moonlight for moderate rock climbs or for approaches to climbs!

The soles on these shoes make it nearly impossible for your foot to slip off the pedals. They look good and feel good when you're just wearing them in the bar after a day of riding. I wish I would have bought two pairs at the price I paid for them. Great shoes.

I'm a downhill tricycler. These shoes not only stick well to metal they stick well to plastic. great for mid-air off-the-pedal tricks, only problem is they stick a little too hard to the ground where yer feet land if you don't get em back on yer pedals of yer trike and yer still moving but yer feet are stopped so Kablamo. But they float for a little while. they're pretty cool.

I ride off-road unicycle (muni. I need a supportive shoe that stuck well when wet. The Five Ten Impacts/Sam Hills are awesome! They are stiffer in the midsole to better support the arch and the sticky sole works even when wet. Great durability. Fit true to size, a somewhat curved last at the toe box, heavier than a skate shoe, long lasting sole.

These are the real deal. Your feet stay where they are meant to they're great scrambling up hills pushing your bike and last but not least they look pretty schmick on your downtime.
