Got some old FiveTen Freeride shoes (6+ years old) that are fine, but have gone soft in the sole. Amazing how much my rear foot aches at the bottom of a long run now. So, just get a new pair or are other shoes better but still offer the stiffness?

6 years old

buy some new 5tens

Giro jackets seem stiff, vibram sole though so not as sticky as 5ten

Adidas soles are stiff.

Just looked at the Adidas Terrex. Look good and a couple of quid cheaper than the ’17 Freerider Pro. Any real life views on the Adidas? My riding is rooty, woodsy type.

I have the new sl version, very comfy. The stiffer sole does give less pedal feel, had them about a month & ridden quite a bit lately, seem very well put together and tough. They are like my teva links but with gripper sole.

giro jackets. i ride pretty much everyday and my last pair lasted over a year. got another pair now. heard good things about ion
