five tens vs 2013 giro jacket
What does everyone think of the new Giro Jacket shoe? Is it worth giving up the Five Tens for or is the Stealth Rubber still the best way to go for riding the shore?

I doubt anyone has even tried the Giro shoes yet... stick with five-ten.

I reckon I'll pick up a set of those and fiveten freerider VXi's next season. Whichever is better will turn into my riding shoe, the other my casual.

I have some Teva Links I've only used a few times. They fit me a bit better than my Five Ten impacts but I missed the stickyness of the stealth rubber. I might just sell the Tevas. Also I'm preferring clipless as of late anyway. The Teva clipless shoe has me buy-curious.

This. I find impact soles are too thick and freeriders are too thin. something in between the two...

I'd love some 510s like the Spitfires I have, but with something to tuck the laces in, and made of some tougher leather-like material.
