Balenciag* Track Sneaker 'Black Grey'

Reviewer James R Wallis

I bought these in Jan of 2017 and still wear the same pair (replaced the insole) two years later. add some lacelock's and these are the perfect shoe for EMS. The no slip soles are one if their best features. as a 300lbs gorilla-esque mass of humanity even i can be surefooted standing on the roof of a car or an oil slick road in the pouring rain. seriously, these things take everything except ice. it also has a steel toe which comes in handy. my only problem was that the plastic insert in the heel disintegrated about 1.5 years into owning them, which is a good run considering these were worn 80+ hours a week on a truck that averaged 7 calls in a 12 hour shift, but then i had to cut the fabric in the heel and manually extract the millions of tiny pieces.

First off, I wear a size 14 in most shoes, including Five Ten Freerider mountain biking shoes. These are only made up to a 13. I heard that they come a little large though and decided to try them out. I'm not sure if this is true across all sizes, but the 13 is more like a 13.75. They ended up fitting me very well. So, be careful on the size.

The main reason I bought these though is that I LOVE the Stealth rubber soles on my MTB shoes and wanted to try out a pair of hiking/approach shoes from Five Ten. Even though the tread pattern doesn't look terribly aggressive, these are the best gripping trail shoes I've owned. They are comfortable all around with a reasonably wide toe box and good cushioning at the top of the tongue and under the ankle. The soles are stiff and took a little while to break in. I still wouldn't say they've "softened" all that much though. The bottom of the shoe is pretty stiff and the inner sole is not very cushy. They are comfortable for wearing all day though. I recently traveled with them for 10 days as my only pair of shoes both walking around town and hiking. So, they're fine. If you like a soft sole or lots of padding though, these are definitely not for you.

The only complaint I have is that these shoes do not breathe well at all. They're mostly a soft leather with a little bit of mesh. The mesh is thick though. My feet get hot in lots of shoes, but these are very hot. The flip side is that they do a decent job of keeping moisture out. During rainy hikes, my feet have stayed pretty dry. For me, the durability is nice. I've beaten up a lot of shoes hiking and I can tell these are going to hold up well. They're very well made and solid.

Overall, I really like these shoes. You just have to be good with the tradeoffs. They choose durability, grip and stiffness over being lightweight and breathable. And I feel like I should repeat that they are not cushy. They have stiff soles, but flex enough to walk around in all day no matter what the terrain. Give them a try if that's what you're after.

Light, comfortable, durable.
Only thing I’m not a fan of is the tongue of the shoe tends to pull to the side a bit so needs to be adjusted here and there but I also don’t lace em up tightly so hat may impact this
