When we are mountain biking, wearing mountain bike-specific shoes makes a huge difference. The Five Ten Freerider Pro Cycling Shoe is one of our top choices when we need a mountain bike shoe with all the necessary features. The synthetic upper is super durable, quick-drying, and abrasion-resistant, and a lace closure ensures we get the perfect fit every time. An impact-resistant toebox protects our feet from rock strikes, and a molded EVA midsole absorbs energy from rough trails and hard landings. Five Ten used their signature Stealth S1 Dotty rubber outsole to provide us with an excellent grip both on and off the bike, and a durable rubber compound stands up to the wear and tear of pedal pins. Finally, with an Ortholite sock liner and footbed, our feet are comfortable all ride long.
