Five Ten Hellcat Pro Cycling Shoe - Men's reviews and deals for sale

Great until....

I really liked these shoes. I did size down like other reviewers have said. They were amazing until I broke the shank.... I might have had a bad shoe or have landed very incorrectly but either way. Super nice enduro\DH shoe right up until that point. Five Ten replaced them with the Hellcat

Sizing issues

If you are going to buy these definitely go a half size down. I am a 9 and have always been a 9. I have bought and worn many other 5.10 shoes and the 9s were 9s. These however the 9 was actually an 9.5And had to send them back. They sent me an 8.5 and I couldn't be happier. Have used them on 2 rides so far and I gotta say... Shoes are so comfortable,...Stiff but not to stiff. Only… read more issue is the velcro strap should be a little longer. Going to them a 4 but only because of the size issue.

Why would you get anything else?

Do you want to the superior grip of a stealth rubber shoe, but want the benefits of running clipless pedals? Look no further! I absolutely love these shoes. I love the feeling of still having some traction with a platform style clipless pedal, and these shoes do that better than anything else. I have fairly wide feet, normally wear a 10 in street shoes and 10 fits me great in these.

Excellent downhill or enduro shoe

The Hellcat Pro is a very comfortable shoe. They are on the roomy side so you may want to try on a 1/2 size down. The cleat pocket is deep enough so you aren't walking on the cleat during hike a bike sections but not so deep that you can't clip in.

Burly and meant to take a beating

The new Hellcat Pro's are super comfy right out of the box. Whatever material Five Ten used for the heel cup feels like a pillow, and the tongue has just the right padding to make for a superb fit. As far as the upper, it's not as breathable as their other options, but is really durable, and does a good job at keeping water from getting inside the shoes. The reinforced toebox keeps… read more rock strikes at bay, while the stealth rubber sole provides tons of grip whether you’re on the pedals or hiking up a rock face. The only downside I had to these shoes is that the shank is stiffer than I typically prefer for longer rides. They worked just fine for shorter rides or when riding aggressive, but not necessarily the shoe I would grab for my rides where comfort is key over pedaling efficiency.
