I've been running 5:10 Impact highs for a while now, I don't really like the excessively curved/cramped toe box. The Freeriders look like they have a larger toe box. I wear 10.5 US in Vans, 10.0 in the Impacts, how do the Freeriders fit? True to size or a 1/2 size big like other 5:10 offerings?

I'm the same as you (10.5 Vans, 10 Impact) so if I remember tonight, i'll try on my Freeriders that I have sitting in a box, I'm pretty sure they're 10.

I went from the Freeriders to the Impact Lows in the same size and felt that the Impacts were a much wider fit throughout. I would also add that my Freeriders went in on warranty because they self destructed after two rides.

If you're a US 10 in an Impact then you should be the same in the Freerider. I have both and the fit is very close. A word to the wise though, if you pick up a new pair of Freeriders, make sure that they have the updated 1-piece sole. The 2-piece will come apart. I just got mine warranteed and 5.10 replaced them no questions asked.

Freeriders are for FREERIDE only. You can't Bownhill in them or you will crash.

Thanks! The soles on my Freeriders finally came apart and I sent them in to get warrantied. Five Ten has been great to deal with so far.

I owned the "original" 5-10 Sam Hill shoes for 3 years until they wore out

recently bought the 2010 5-10 Sam Hill shoes, loving them!


in both cases, bought my "training shoe" (i.e. Nike Air) size of US9 in the 5-10s and found both pairs a perfect fit, with a generous toe box width and supreme comfort
