7:31 also about a cm higher. I agree with the last things you mentioned. but benefit when you are landing on rocks with feet or smashing them into stuff they will protect you better, but overkill for me.
I only ride with 5 and have just broke my big toe last Tuesday but a tree stump in a bunch off leaves is hard to see. I like the 5 because I ride flats and the sole is great.
I don't get couple of years of Five Ten Freerider, they last two seasons. I have winter shoes and summer shoes. the sole will get holes and will get too flexy eventually. But the stiffer shoes will last longer like Impact, but I don't like to have them on cus the issue is they are so warm.
Very good display. I have about 5 miles of off road trail, on a mostly, on road 140 mile, Oahu Island ride. So I'm always looking to optimize that situation. Not having to bring hike shoes along w my roadie setup would be nice. Also clipping in is a bit of an issue on that trail so mags would be good. Do you think 140 miles with 5 miles of trail/walking/riding would work w these pedals??? Thank you 😊 👌
Sawadee krap from Thailand. Heading home to Phoenix for some great fall riding in the desert. that said, need a new pair of shoes and I am leaning toward the Five Ten Freerider Pro or the Giro Riddance. Your thoughts? Thanks for the video Sam.
Thanks for clearing up the difference between the models. I've got 3 pairs of Freerider - one of which is worn out and the other pair a bit snug - so am a big fan. I do suffer a lot from foot pain so need to move position on the pedals, hence flats rather than clipless. I love the way that the soles absolutely stick to the pins on my flats. I never get dislodged. After watching this, I think I should upgrade to the Freerider Pro or the Impact to benefit from some of that extra stiffness, even though it will be a killer for the hike-a-bike sections. My only complaint with the FiveTens is that they squeeze my little toe after a few hours. I think that Nathan (Sendero Seeker) suffers the same. Have you had this?
Hey Graham thanks for watching, yes the pros or the impacts are on my list, I’ve gone back to clips on my ebike but not 100% sure on it! I I’m 43 on all my 510s but I ordered te impact pro in 43 and they were too small. I don’t like a very tight fit on my riding shoes and o have narrow feet so no toe rubbing!
Hi, could you tell me something about Freeriders' and Freeriders' Pro breathability? Would it be decent enough for a whole day XC/Trail trip in the summer? Thx :]
Is the freerider pro a lower cut shoe than the freerider? Or does it just appear that way because the ankle area isn’t cut as deep? I hope that makes sense
Sam, how do you find the FiveTen sizing? I usually take a size 45 but one of my pairs of FiveTen at 47¼ is tight (I only wear them on cold days, of which there ain't many down here in Cadiz Province).
It has changed since 5.10 was bought by Adidas not long ago. Check some adidas shoes (if you have them o can try them) before ordering online. I have had some hellcats from years ago and they are 44,5 and 29 cm's which are perfect for me. I did order 45 1/3 of the new freeriders pro to get the same fit (29 cm) according to their web site, and other adidas i had. They are on their way, i think that should be the size. Hope this was helpfull if buying new 5.10. Best regards.
Hey Darren thanks for watching, the kestrel do look nice but my hell cats still have life in them! I’m playing between flats and clips has a nasty cash last weeks in Clíps! Not sure right now :(
Lmao I’m in the same position as you right now, I rode with vans and just broke my toe, I contemplated so much the five ten and now here I am with a broke toe looking for proper riding shoes
no wonder the shoes last so long, you got a lot of shoes I only got two pairs I use, I got Impact high but don't use them, I use Freerider high and Freerider EPS.
Haha this is true, yesterday was wet I did ride but i don’t like it haha I’m a dry rider and with 300 days of sunshine in oz and Spain a year I’m happy to sit 60 days out haha! Not sure how long five tens would last in wet weather but I love mine! My video wasn’t that clear but I was meaning with a heavier bike like the ebikes you need need more protection on your feet! Thanks for watching and watch out for that spunk on the trials hahahaha
Hey mate thanks for watching all the vidoes it means alot.. yea this video wasnt that good i didnt make my point very well that ebikes are heavier and i feel you need stronger shoes.
7:31 also about a cm higher.

I have the 2019 Sam Hill 5 10s and they are awesome.... keep up the good work.
Yep tough shoes for tough riders! Thanks for watching Sam
Watching this with a broken foot. Thanks sam

Totally mate 510s for ever thanks for watching

it is a little lower cut!
How much were the Freerider costing in 2019? I saw them in an Adidas store going for 110€ which is crazy

Kestrel looks great, I ride SPDs. Currently using the Specialized 2FO Cliplite similar to the Kestrel. You on flats now?
Hey Darren thanks for watching, the kestrel do look nice but my hell cats still have life in them! I’m playing between flats and clips has a nasty cash last weeks in Clíps! Not sure right now :(
Sam’s Bikes, you ok? I find it hard riding with flats, especially with technical flats and technical climbing.
Yea I’m fine 🙂 was lucky but not sure if I’ll stay clips or flats.
Lmao I’m in the same position as you right now, I rode with vans and just broke my toe, I contemplated so much the five ten and now here I am with a broke toe looking for proper riding shoes
Sorry to hear that yes riding shoes are super important.... I'm riding Rider Concepts now and I'm loving them!
@@SamsBikes I had to find out that out the hard way
Totally I was 9 months out with my broken foot!
@@SamsBikes I hope I can be out only 2 months because it doesn’t seem that severe
Fuck off
Hi! Great video! Thanks!! What about sizing, do you need to size up? One or 2 sizes extra?
It really depends freerider seem to be fine! Impacts maybe one size bigger.
Good job buddy!! Great explanation!
Thanks 🙏 champ great ride today
@@SamsBikes yes, brutal!
no wonder the shoes last so long, you got a lot of shoes I only got two pairs I use, I got Impact high but don't use them, I use Freerider high and Freerider EPS.
Is there anybody else out there with 5- tens that smell like cat piss when wet?
Only when my cat pisses on them! Haha
What's the ******* difference?
G-MTB (E-MTB) doesn't change what kind of shoes you need.
You ride an ebike?! The extra 10-12kgs makes you feel a lot more exposed so I feel you need a tougher tire
Sam you fair weather rider, no need.?............... UK is all sorts shit, dust, mud, snot, spunk lol, Australian term
Haha this is true, yesterday was wet I did ride but i don’t like it haha I’m a dry rider and with 300 days of sunshine in oz and Spain a year I’m happy to sit 60 days out haha!

Thanks for watching and watch out for that spunk on the trials hahahaha
E bike shoes? what? really? just use same shoes, does not matter if its e bike or normal bike I think.
Hey mate thanks for watching all the vidoes it means alot.. yea this video wasnt that good i didnt make my point very well that ebikes are heavier and i feel you need stronger shoes.
@@SamsBikes I don't see why.
@@mtbboy1993 I just feel with 24kg i just want it... thats all
Bruh what is it with TH-camrs making ebike specific videos, there's no difference when it comes to the shoe you need 🤡
Yep 14kg and 25kg is no difference? You need more protection you 🤡 for the weight and down force when you crash 💥
They are made by Adidas.
yep but they Are still good.
