Looks like five ten are following Scarpa, and Redchili in having a large patch of rubber on the toe.

Was that a joke?! The V10's have been out for a fair few years now with a rather sizeable amount of rubber on the top.

lets hope they haven't messed it up. Why discontinue a fan favourite we all cried! Only good thing is the strap and the overwelmingly good response by their sponsored testers

Stubbs · July 05, 2009, 09:50:31 pm

Lol good responses from sponsored testers aren't really worth shit though are they (as Jasper mentioned earlier)? Hopefully they will be as good as they look, but I'm not holding my breath! I just hope they don't discontinue the Dragons!

maybe they'll make velcro versions of the dragons

Johnny Brown · July 06, 2009, 09:46:04 am

The original Dragons were velcro. Or was that your point?

The word from the SLC tradeshow is 510 pairs to be released worldwide this autumn, when I hear a date I'll let you know!

this is not going to be priced like slippers of old – expect to pay top wack for this one.

namnok · August 05, 2009, 10:54:44 am

we're inching ever so closer (pic from recent ukc article)

Stu Littlefair · August 05, 2009, 11:44:42 am

Ever so disappointingly, I found out last night that these will only be available in sizes 5 or larger.

Not that any of you care.

dave · August 05, 2009, 12:00:16 pm

Quite a blow to all the under elevens year olds.

Stubbs · August 05, 2009, 03:12:08 pm

I'm worried these are going to be all floppy and rubbish like the projects as they have the same thickness of rubber innit? Has anyone actually got their mits on a pair yet to ease my fears? Perhaps a stiffer midsole?

saltbeef · August 05, 2009, 09:36:05 pm

allegedly the rubber is thicker

possibly the 'limited editions' this website mentions....only 510 pairs made

http://touchstoneclimbing.com/labels/Five%20Ten.html

then spring 2010 for a rerelease

dave · August 10, 2009, 03:12:49 pm

Does that 510 figure count the inevitable hundred or so that'll have to go back when they fall appart in the first week?

Does anybody else get the feeling that 5.10 are being run by retards? Why do they do this?!

ferret · November 24, 2009, 10:31:10 pm

just got my hands on a pair of these today, not climbed in them yet but 1st impressions are;

shoes look excellent, like the bobbly friction fabric thats all over it
dislike the heel cut out, it is coated with something and at least is on the inside of the heel (the bit i use the least)
be prepared these are a tight shoe, just put mine on for the 1st time, took 5 minutes lol. however once theyre on feel similar to v10s although the heel feels much better as a result of the tight fit (i had a lot of play in the v10 heels) also the velcro seems to secure the shoe very well
overall syked!!
will report back wen iv climbed in them a bit
hueco next week for their maiden voyage yyfy

benpritch · November 25, 2009, 08:03:35 am

even better than V10s dare i say it? hooky and precise, feel like you are cheating on steepness.
