I still really want to see some sort of armored toe, steel or whatever.

look into some skater shoes. there's a lot out now that have steel toe versions

 

[WhiteRavenKS]

"retro basketball flavor"... that is exactly what everyone's been waiting for.

hey jvn - you know the release date on the impact2's?

need a new pair of shoes and trying to decide if i can hold out for the purdy new ones..

The FiveTen impact II's are going to look almost exactly like the black leather ones with the white trim on jvnixon's Sicklines.com

In addition there will be 2 "Special Editions":

One will be the Sam Hill low-top, and the other will be the Nathan Rennine high-top. These will also look almost exactly like the ones from Interbike on Sicklines.com

Pretty cool. No word yet on the armored toe-box, but last I heard, they were talking about making one, and I REALLY hope they do.

Pink and brown allready happened bud, you're off the back.
Why is everyone hurting their toes? and who in their right mind thinks there are steel toe skate shoes? sarcasm? silly? billy?

Unfortunately I don't. A call to them though should clear that up if one were so inclined

 

[Flat Out]

the impact 2's should be available march from what i hear...

I can't see how steel toe caps are going to be a good idea. Surely that would just mean your foot will slide forward inside the shoe and guarantee you'll stub your toe on something hard!!??

 

[ZHendo]

i vote impact 2 or sam hill for best looking.

Same idea as having metal caps on moto boots. Sure your toes might slide forward into the front of the shoe, but thats a lot better then breaking or smashing them when they slam a rock or something.

I've got a pair of Adidas Hematoma clipless MTB shoes that saved my lil' piggies from mass destruction after washing out a corner at speed while going over some rocks.

If I was wearing any other shoe, my big toe would've gotten broken while travelling head-on into a rock. The armored toe-box those things have are invaluable - hopefully this will translate into a pair of 5.10's soon...

Come to SB and ride the trails. Many sections are narrow and have rocks that are easy to hit with your toes. I use some Vans that grip amazingly, but a steel toe box would be nice.
