The Karver in Smokey Blue. The Karver is built for bumps. And logs. And jumps. Designed for flat pedal mountain biking, the Karver offers unprecedented freedom from clips - the mid-height ankle has moderate padding for comfort and control, and supportive action leather uppers protect your feet while you're flying down single track. Stealth S1 outsoles are the stickiest interface between pedals and feet available. The Karver himself helped with the redesigned upper.
- MSRP $119.95 USD

Maltese Falcom - A low-cut, SPD shoe built for the demands of mountain biking, BMX and Dirt Jumping. The new Maltese Falcon has a stiff but sensitive midsole for cranking power and we've added a Velcro Brand ankle strap for extra support. An external heel counter provides added stability for technical maneuvers and long rides. The Maltese Falcon features Stealth S1 outsoles for unparalleled friction on rocky terrain.
- MSRP $ TBA

Baron - Riding on the world wide success of our Freeride line, the Baron is a burly performance flat pedal bike shoe designed for the rigors of downhill, BMX and urban commuting. Super high-friction outsoles are non-marking Stealth Phantom Black.
- MSRP $ 99.95 USD

Freerider in White Tiger. Free your feet and your mind will follow. 5.10 Freeriders are the ultimate performance tool for today's downhill mountain bike racers and flat pedal riders. Details like reinforced stitching, protective toe boxes, and action leather uppers make these shoes the choice of UCI mountain bike World Champions. When you don't want the restriction of clipless pedals, the new Freerider's keep your feet in place. As one rider put it, Stealth soles stick to pedals like duct tape.
- MSRP $99.95 USD

Freerider in Galactic Purple.


Five Ten has done so much over the past few years for flat pedal riders that it's pretty much impossible to go anywhere and not see a rider wearing their shoes. With the introduction of the Minnaar signature SPD shoe last year, they stepped into a new realm and have expanded this year with additional SPD options.

 White tiger freerides = SICK

 I think a grey would make more sense.

 Yea, I can see the white tigers turning into brown tigers after a few rides. On a side note, I've got a pair of freeriders in blue zebra and they are absolutely a dream to ride in. They grip the pedals so well and they're incredibly comfy!

 They need to give gray/black a stronger material over the toe, like the other versions of the Freerider. That fine mesh ripped so easily... Also, maybe make it a bit more gray too (it's currently more khaki looking next to my Race Face Flank pads).

 Also:
"The Baron is a burly performance flat pedal bike shoe designed for the rigors of downhill, BMX and urban commuting."

How rigorous can urban commuting get?

 Screw hipsters, but I rally a fixie everyday and vans, converse, or any regular shoe gets destroyed within a couple weeks of good mobbing. but I think the chrome line of shoes is way better than these goofy things

 It would be nice if they made another run of Sam Hills, everywhere I've looked they're on back order and out of stock.
