Quick Drying Flat Pedal Shoes for the Wide of Foot - Any Recommendations?

Post by The Cumbrian »

I'm looking for a pair of flat pedal shoes that are well ventilated, dry quickly, have stiff soles and will fit a wide foot. I tried a pair of Five10 Trail Cross LTs on today in my LBS but they weren't wide enough, and I would have liked them to have been more rigid. I also tried on a pair of Five10 Impact Pros, which were wide and rigid enough, but not very well ventilated and quite heavy. They're currently the front runners though because they fit well.

Any recommendations before I pull the trigger on the Impact Pros?

Cheers, Michael.

My Five Ten Impacts dry at a rate that can only be described as akin to continental drift. If that's your main factor, I'd avoid.

Thanks for that. My feet almost always end up wet when I'm out on the mountain bike so quick drying shoes are reasonably important to me. I was hoping that they'd dry quickly as they're synthetic.

I've been using 510 freerider Pro for the last 3 or 4 years.

Pretty good for me.

I always take the inner out to dry.

Bought a pair of these recently, so far so good.

I signed up & got 25% off through the Adidas App.

I use Salomon Speed cross Vario running shoes when on flats. They dry quick and are very comfy
