Designed by Rennie to withstand the abuse of a World Cup DH season, these customs
flash a bit of old-school bball flavor. Rennie designed his mid-cut to represent his personality and roots - a laid back Australian comfortable in a slopestyle comp or the World Cup DH podium.
Influences from retro basketball shoes and work boots were mashed
up to produce this custom - a shoe worthy of tribute to the only rider
capable of throwing it 120 feet and crushing a world class DH field.

Bottom Line:
These shoes are worth every penny. The soles of the other shoes I've used would get eat up by the flat pedals I ride pretty quick and I would start slipping off the pedals.
Not with these Five Tens! Soles still look almost new after about a year of use and haven't slipped a pedal once with these. The Stealth rubber soles are amazing.
The Nathan Rennie version looks awesome too.
Buy these, you won't regret the purchase! I just ordered another pair for backup.
