Freerider Pro Mid VCS Cycling Shoe

When the forecast calls for a long day of mixed climbs and technical descents, we need a lightweight mountain bike-specific shoe that is still suited for aggressive riding. The Five Ten Freerider Pro Mid VCS Cycling Shoe is the same as the Five Ten Freerider Pro that we love, but now with added ankle protection and a mid-top design. An integrated Ortholite sock liner with added D3O ankle protection gives us extra ankle support and protection on the inside of our ankle, and a reinforced toe box keeps our toes protected when we are charging through rock gardens. A compression-molded EVA midsole absorbs energy from rough trails and hard landings, and the hook and loop straps make for a simple and secure closure. Five Ten's signature Stealth S1 Dotty rubber outsole provides a great grip on and off the bike, and a durable rubber compound stands up to the wear and tear of metal pedal pins.
