Hey guys,

I'm new to the forum but I was wondering whether anyone has tried or has even seen the Time DXZ DH Shoe found on eBay here:

They look descent, if you like the covered design, but I don't know about fitment or how well the soles grip/flex. Any input would be appreciated, thanks guys.

Hi David, welcome to RM. Personally I've never seen the time shoes.

If you're into clips, the shimano DH shoes are good, flats is 510 all the way.

I only buy shoes I can try on first. Try before you buy.

I run them. I've been out only about 6 times on them though. The sole is stiff, and the shoe s well built. Much better than the 661 I destroyed causing me to need new shoes. They run a bit on the narrow side, so I had to go up a size from what I usually wear. I haven't run shimano shoes, but I tried them on in the shop, and the Time's are way more comfortable and look to be much better built and more durable. Honestly, for a DH purpose-designed shoe, I can't think of one that is better built. You should be happy with them. Remember though, these are a clipless shoe. If you want to run them with flats, I wouldn't suggest it as the sole is stiff and you wouldn't get great grip on the pedal. For flats. 5.10's can't be beat.

I picked up a pair of the new Vans recently and freaking love them. If you prefer a skate style shoe they beat anything else I have had clipped in.
