Dec 14th draw is now closed. The winner of the Afton Prize Pack is Pinkbike usertheBestWadE. CongratulationstheBestWadE
Prize Details: Winner’s Choice of an Afton Keegan or Vectal pair of shoes.
Keegan: Casually inspired yet extremely technical, the Keegan is anything but ordinary. We have developed a custom shank and outsole to work together in perfect harmony. Tired of having your feet hurt from weeping over the pedals after a long descent? We were too and developed our own proprietary mono-directional shank which is stiff over the pedals but allows you to walk naturally. It also reduces vibration, provides more pedal power, and helps with hard landings or impacts. Mix that with our Intact® Rubber with a Shore A of 60 which is soft and tacky yet durable and other protective/reinforced features, the Keegan does not disappoint.
OR
Vectal: Why does your clipless shoe have to be uncomfortable? It doesn’t anymore, introducing the Vectal, a clipless shoe that has enough flex in the toe and heel to make walking bearable yet is rigid enough to perform excellently on the pedals. Mix that with our tacky Intact® Rubber, 35mm clip adjustment, generous clip box and a protective cage and the Vectal is not a MTB shoe that can be ignored.

Dear Pinkbike, you must be really busy because you have'nt notified me of my winnings. Hope you get back on track soon, and send me that P.M ASAP, drink a coffee first I dont mind.
Sincerely, BL69
Recently got a pair of the Afton flats and a pair of the clipless model. Both are very comfortable with the flats offering grip at least comparable to Five Ten or better. Still early in the game, but very pleased so far.
Hmm, which shoe though... I ride clipless 95% of the time, but some days I like to go dirt jumping and prefer to ride flats while doing so and have no flat specific riding shoes... but more importantly, I like the colors of one, and not the other, and they dont say which is which... hopefully I wont win so these difficult decisions will not be necessary.
Click on the aftonshoes.com hyperlink right below the image. This will take you to the site, where you can see the orange sole shoes are clipless and the black sole ones are flat.
NOT FAIR
I don't really care, I ride bere foot & naked
