This may take the thread a whole different direction but so what? Yeah it means more kooks riding and your foavorite trail might be a bit more croweded but it also means more money for the sport. More money will mean better products, possibly more trails being opend or at least not closing them and perhaps more sponsors for the races wich could even mean the simi-Pros and Pros in the US will actually start making money again. Probably not like they were in the early '90s but better then it is now.

Back to the thread, the shoes look decent but I prefer a high-top for the ankle support and protection from hits on bolders . They should come out with something like the older AXO Descend. Luckily I still have a good pair I wear.
