Thanks They are ok for riding offroad. The rubber is not as sticky as the one on my old worn out Freeriders, which makes it a bit tricky to remain traction on the pedals (at least on a hardtail). The sole is stiffer though. I might be able to get used to them, but I got a pair of Impact vxi's last week to replace the Freeriders. Those shoes are brilliant. They are a bit wide for me feet, but they work like a charm. I got the Sleuth mainly for daily use and rolling around town.
They sound good actually. I have the new Freerider Canvas and the soles are very sticky and when I wear them for casual wear everything sticks to the soles like all the dirt and stuff. So the Sleuths maybe better for casual wear, I think they look smart on you. They are fairly cheap too, I might get a pair.
How do like the FiveTen shoes you have on there?
