I never had Terraduros (mainly because of their weight vs other manufacturers) but got a pair of Shimano M-163, which are the "predecessor" of the ME-5 (and now use a pair of M-200, which are almost the same as the ME-7). Aside from the looks, which was pretty plain verging on ugly IMO, I absolutely loved these shoes. In fact, they have been one of the most comfortable pair of shoes I've owned in 25 years of MTBing. Easy to walk in, protective, pretty light for "trail/enduro" shoes and durable, as far as I'm concerned. I must warn you, though, that I had issues with the "clip" (small metal part where the ratcheted part of the strap goes in) of one of my M-200 shoe, which bend repeatedly. Still, for the price, the ME-5 are a very good buy IMO.
