The Five Ten Women's Trailcross Clip-In shoes represent a significant advancement in the realm of multi-sport footwear, specifically tailored for those who enjoy both cycling and hiking. These shoes combine the latest technology from the Five Ten Trailcross family to offer you clip-in performance on your bike while ensuring all-day comfort during hikes. This model is designed not just for cycling enthusiasts, but also for adventure seekers who value versatility and performance.
I was pleasently surprised by this shoe. I ordered 4 pairs of cycling clipless (clip-in) shoes to try on including from the leading brands Shimano and Peal Izumi - and this was by far the winner! Very comfortable and stretches over my bunion with no pain! Extremely wearable on and off bike (no clicking!). And the cleats fit in easily and in exactly the right position for power on the petal. I give this shoe an A+!
I really wish I could have kept these. They are very well-made, have a nice, sticky bottom, and have great material on the uppers. However, I have wide feet, and the toebox was just too narrow. Even going up a size did not help.
After reading the reviews, I seriously thought my shoes would be inadequate for All Mountain and Enduro ebike rides. I was wrong. The center sole shank is very stiff. If you are comfortable sliding the cleats all the way back, you can take advantage of the increased power transfer and gain XC like pedaling efficiency. The toe box area does flex, allowing for off saddle hike a bike, which perfectly fits Gravel and Bikepacking applications. The size is spot on, however the pointy toe reminds me of a trail running shoe and there is a slight gap between the toes and inner tip of the shoe. This space is inconsequential. My only gripe is the Velcro strap needs to be unlooped, when tying the laces. Otherwise, Adidas hit it out of the park, in this one.
Was so excited for these shoes, they seem high quality for the price and comfortable. However they are INSANELY narrow! I’m normally between an 8-8.5 women’s and got an 8.5, I literally could barely even squeeze my foot to try them on. My feet are a bit wider, but only every once in a while do I need specific wide shoes for context. So even if you have mildly wide feet, I wouldn’t even bother. Bummed I have to return them
These shoes are long and narrow. I usually wear women’s size 8, but probably would do better in 7.5. My heels slip if I get off my bike and hike up something I couldn’t ride. I have insoles in them and tie them real tight but still my heels slip. It’s annoying, I should have returned them but missed the window. Size down!
