Why We Like The Five Ten Kestrel BOA Mountain Bike Shoe
Completely redesigned to handle the demands of cross-country racing and downcountry riding, the Five Ten Kestrel BOA Mountain Bike Shoe is built for speed and comfort. Made with recycled materials, the abrasion-resistant upper is hyper-breathable and features two hook-and-loop straps and a BOA closure so that we can dial in our ideal fit for high-output rides. A full-length glass fiber-reinforced plate allows us to really put the hammer down on the climbs and is bolstered by Stealth Marathon rubber lugs for insane amounts of traction off the bike.

Big mistake.
Owned an old pair of boa kestrels (pre-Adidas) that needed to be replaced. These are a huge let down. They don't fit well. The toe box is not "generously big". It is not proportional and feels like the design was half baked. They exude low quality. The shoe fits fine but the straps are way too long. Returning for sure. I would rather ride my 7 year old pair.

Good fit, good quality, good shoe
I highly recommend this issue. After 20 rides, quality is still in place. Boa system and Velcro seem to work well. Fit is as expected and runs pretty normal for sizing.

Was expecting more out of these shoes since 5/10’s are so popular. Big toe box but overall not that comfortable, wouldn’t buy again

Good all-round shoes
I've had these for a season now and overall, they were the type of shoe I was looking for. I had some really stiff S-Works shoes that were more race/x-country. These have a better balance so are still comfortable on longer downs but still enough support for pedaling. They also look good. Only downside is, I feel the toe box is overly big compared with all other shoes I have.

I love this shoe!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very catchy color scheme. A solid shoe for mountain and gravel biking.

Wanted to love them
Wanted to love these, but the tongue is way too stiff. Everything else about the shoe is solid, at least from trying them on, but the tongue doesn't have nearly enough flex in the end of it and digs in to the front of my ankle badly if I flex my knees forwards or try to drop my heels. Even just a few minutes of trying them on and moving around in them was enough to leave faint lines on my ankle.

Not the Five Ten feel Im used to
Bought these after owning Hellcat for a few years. Was hoping to get a more performance based shoe with Five Ten feel. That is not what these are. I've owned many brands of bike shoes over 30 years. These are least comfortable Ive owned. Too many problems to list them all. Also need to raise your seat sone because they stand so tall on pedals. I got the ones on sale so not heart broken but Ill be using my Hellcats until they fall apart.

Don't like the look and the noise
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the shoes for BOA system! It looks weird on me, and I dont like the metal noise it is making on the bottom of the shoes.
