oh boy...it's that time of year when all the sponsored riders start creating new threads every time they get new gear...

yawn..

 

[jonKranked]

That's a lotta effin' shoes. You got a centipede racing for you or something?

 

[Mr Ridiculous]

Sweet dude. I actually think the Karver looks good. Anybody have any ride time with them yet?

 

[yuroshek]

yeaaaa!!! im stoked those look awesome cecil!

 

[kidwithbike]

what is the little logo on the heel of the freerider? it looks kinda like a liscense plate...

Yah, about 16 feet!!!!

Sweet dude. I actually think the Karver looks good. Anybody have any ride time with them yet?

Will post up a Ride Review when I have some time on them. They fit and feel great. The colors will go well with our 09 Kits.

How much do the freeriders weigh? I just lost one of my shoes that I left on my car and drove away, (it fell off) and I need some new shoes. One of the problems that I always had with mine (the bombers, but 5.10 sole) was they were so god forsakenly heavy. Are those freeriders lighter then the impacts (mine is really similar to the impact)?

 

[kidwithbike]

not suprised the guy with a SLAYER icon like the Karver! ITS RAINING BLOOD!

 

[jonKranked]

I think it says "STLTH RBR" ala the license plate like you said.

There was another company that did something similar... wasn't it like BK knights or something? Maybe LA Gear?

Yes, that is what it is. Says FiveTen.

FreeRider is 840gs a pair
Karver is 1110gs a pair

Hope that helps...

Cecil, help William out and throw those shoes on the plug/ highly accurate and insanely awesome Feedback Sports scales! /plug

( MAN! Cecil i bet your speedy internet skills transfer over to the race course eh!)

That is what I did, but the Shoes covered the whole scale in the Pics. Lots of Feedback Sports Shots will be up on SickLines.com next week around Wed or Thurs with the Bike Build. Mad Props to Feedback Sports as well!!!!!! Great Guys!!!!

all i know is British Knights were dope. I had a pair when i was 10... i probably barely knew how to tie my shoes but i knew that shyt was sweet. I would wear them with a Kings Starter jacket. I was cool in 2nd grade, never have been since!

10 years old in grade 2? How cool were you really? Haha.

Anybody have any ride time on the freeriders to give a comparison to the impacts?

 

[rewster]

weighing shoes? what has this world come to?

 

[William42]

Do you like riding with 4 lb shoes? I dont.

 

[morethanjake543]

Do those freeriders still have the toe protection that the impacts do?

Just curious. I got some impacts on clearance at the end of the year and have been loving them since!

 

[Eastern States Cup]

Damn, you guys win

opted for the plain black Impact2's so we don't look like basketball fairies

 

[woof]

How many batteries do your shoes take VooDooHoo?? haha

Super stoked....Can't wait to muddy the hell out of them. All the 5.10's look great!

 

[FCLinder]

Yes but they go well with our Kit!!!

Cecil

pretty sweet, did ya order me one

 

[motormonkeyr6]

Yah, about 16 feet!!!!



The colors will go well with our 09 Kits.

Thats the real reason your rocking them!

 

[dump]

man, those shoes look great! Congrats guys.

 

[no skid marks]

So glad they copied Shimanno, and others with the high inner ankle, dunno about the lace savers and they look totally ****, but meh who gives a toss about looks, and I'll probably just cut the lace saver off anyway.
Can't wait to get some. Although I'm still tempted to try the newer shimanos with their swanky rubber.

 

[jvnixon]

I'll probably just cut the lace saver off anyway.

You can just remove it. I was told it is held on with velcro.

 

[konastab01]

Even better....

 

[Abstrakt51]

Those Freeriders look a whole lot better in your pics than they do then on 5.10s website.

 

[Eastern States Cup]

Funny thing is no matter what the price, we'd still use them. Best damn shoe ever. And yes I hike in them too.

 

[FCLinder]

This is True..... No need to cut it off.

 

[rewster]

FreeRider is 840gs a pair
Karver is 1110gs a pair

Hope that helps...

haven't thrown them on the scales yet, but my team is rocking these pups this season.....

 

[Kntr]

This is True..... No need to cut it off.

Can you post a pic with it removed?

 

[FCLinder]

Can you post a pic with it removed?

Later today.

 

[Kntr]

Later today.

Thanks.

I sure wish they would come out with an SPD for us clipless riders.

 

[sayndesyn]

may have to get the freeriders for dj'ing if they aren't too sticky. Carvers would look decent if they got rid of the red scribble.

 

[Metal Dude]

Thanks.

This comment makes no sense. Why would they want to put out an spd when
that is what market they are trying to "steal" customers from?
Why would they make a product that shares sales with like a hundred other spd shoe makers.
Right now they have a heads up on all other flat shoe makers. Probably not for long though
I have seen a couple companies marketing knockoff soles to the 5tens.

I ride clipless as well, but will have a pair of the before pictured shoes soon.
Almost every clipless rider I have known to try the 5tens has converted back to flat pedals.
It is a different riding style between flats and clips. You have to ride more calculated and
smooth with clipless to assure you stay clipped in as much as possible.
With Flats you can just let go and rip! The 5tens allow this without slipping pedals,
therefore in theory at least the 5tens eliminate the need for spd's.

That being said I still don't know if I will prefer the 5tens to clipless. And I would think just like
most things it will come down to rider preference.

Im not sure Im following you. You said my comment doesnt make sense... I want a pair of 5.10s that are SPD. That doesnt make sense to you? They arent trying to steel anyone from SPD. They are trying to get people to run their shoes that run flats. I guess in a way they would like SPD people to convert.

Ive seen a few guys take 5.10s and make them SPD but they dont work quite right.

I tried the Oakly SPD with the soft bottom and they fell apart. They were nice when you didnt clip back in right away. The 5.10s would rock in a SPD.

 

[OB1]

I want a pair of 5.10s that are SPD.

I'm looking for a fully rigid Fox 40, a job that doesn't pay me, and a girlfriend that won't put out.

Why would you be excited for a company who is known for their "stealth" soles, to make a shoe that doesn't use "stealth" soles?

 

[FCLinder]

Thanks.

I sure wish they would come out with an SPD for us clipless riders.

There are talks and are working on that!!! They know there is a high demand for a SPD shoe from them. You may see some in 2010.....
