I’ve had a couple of pairs of shoes with the Shimano/Vibram sole as on the AM41s and a few pairs of Five Tens. My main complaint with the Shimano shoes was the longevity of the sole. I wore them out (well a ring of tread where the pedal went had gone) in a number of months rather than years. Left the shoes useless as there was no grip where the pins went but plenty in the places it wasn’t needed.
The Five Tens have been much better and a couple of pairs are still going strong 3 years down the line.
The Shimano shoes are better quality as shoes but the soles are significantly better on the Five Tens. Newer Five Tens, since the Adidas takeover, seem to be much better built and are significantly improved over the previous ones. Most obviously the Freerider VXi
