    I suggested against it in 05 when helping out with the "re-introduced" version after listening to Doug and others who were clinging desperately to all their old pairs like gold. Nice to know they're to the point financially where they can do it now.

    There's a few places that'll re-sole any shoes with 5.10 Stealth rubber soles. That'd solve my problem with wanting a comfy, good looking padded shoe that you can pedal well in.

    They just need to keep it simple with black and grays. Stick to what people like, don't go modern art on us. I would have trouble buying some of those boots just because of the ugly design, and I normally don't care, but florescent????

    The longevity issue isn't in the sole material, it is the glue holding the sole to the rest of the shoe.

    I have had many 5:10 shoes, ranging from the Impact, the Freeride, the Basic and the running shoe model. So far, the running model is the only one not falling apart...

    I realise DH is hard on shoes, but when soles start falling off after a couple of months...

    I won't complain too much over freebies though. And I will continue to use 5:10 for the quality of their rubber.
