The new sole will make it easier to adjust the foot-position on the pedal.

THE NEW Five Ten Impact Pro will start the 2018 season with a few updates. The shoe is now lighter and the innersole is 30% shallower. Despite going through a slimming cure, the new Impact Pro can now offer even more protection than its predecessor, thanks to a reinforced toecap. Five Ten’s old leather upper had to give way to the new synthetic one. Five Ten shoes have a reputation for sucking up water like a sponge, but the new Impact Pro seems to be dealing better with this issue. There will be a dedicated sole-pattern for each size and the new profile is also designed to allow for easier foot-positioning when riding. The Five Ten Impact Pro will be available from the beginning of 2018 and will retail for € 149.95, the popular Impact Low, High and Sam Hill are still available and cost between € 129.95 and € 139.95.
