If you think I'm dropping 70 quid on shoes that are just going to get the soles ripped apart by the pins on the V12's you're very much mistaken!!!

sparrowlegs78

Mine haven't been ripped to shreds and I run the long pins on my pedals...you don't move once your feet are on em so they don't slip and tear the rubber soles...had my shoes for well over a year

You can send any of your favourite shoes off to some company now(forget the name offhand) and they will resole them with the same stealth rubber thats on the bottom of the 5:10's. Think its about £35.

V12's and 5.10's rock for me and no ripping up of the soles problems in over a year.
