My Five Ten impacts are a bit done in now and i am looking at something new. I will ONLY wear Five Ten Shoes after the Impacts due to their grip. Wondering if anyone had tried the trail shoes, specifically the Marvel below. Same rubber but slightly different pattern as the impacts. Any thoughts or feedback?

Never used marvels yet, the impacts are so good why buy anything else? I am new to the five ten's after trying loads of different shoes such as nike ACG etc. Id stick with the impacts as the tread design is perfect for flats. The Marvels will slip in places due to the tread..
mmm - the Impacts look a bit "special" though and they are sweaty in the summer. The Marvels are mesh uppers.
more for xc than dh use by me
They look more like running shoes to me. If you want to stick with 5-10's but want something less "special looking" try the Freeriders. Same rubber as Impacts, but look more like a skate shoe. Love mine
