I’ve ridden twice wearing these shoes and I believe they are helping .
Before I’d ride in my Keen hiking sandals or some soft hiking shoes .
the flat rubbery soles on the Five Tens keep my feet set on the pedals .
I also bought a pair of Five Tens earlier this spring, the Freerider model. My first dedicated cycling shoe. I like them too, very comfortable. I like the rigid sole (compared to my sneakers) and the pins on the pedals don't bite as deeply.
Hope they keep working for you.
