Nice design, but not as comfortable or supportive as other brands of similar style. There is very little cushion inside, compared to the many DC Court graffik shoes I've owned. I'm very careful with my shoes, having them last minimum of 5 years, and the blue hand is already peeling off, after a few days of wear.
This is a beefy stiff shoe that they as say in the description is meant for Enduro/down hill riding. It's a heavy stiff shoe that provides a lot of protection. The camber pros are A little bit lighter duty and more grip but not nearly as stiff or as armored.
Of all the shoes they make this would be my second pick after the camber pro. I wish they would put the new Michelin tread design on this shoe and then it might be a little better.
If you're looking for a stiff shoe with good pedal transfer and a lot of foot protection this is the best I've found when it comes to those qualities.
Like the title says I've tried a decent amount of flat pedal shoes and I'd say this is one of my favorite so I hope they didn't quit making it. Probably the best mountain bike shoe Etnie makes. It doesn't have as much protection and it's not as heavy duty or stiff as the Culverts (My second pick of Etnie shoe) but it's definitely the most grippy one they make. I bought these when they first came out and rode them for a season or better. They're still in decent shape but they will wear a little bit quickly which is the price you pay for good grip. Of all the mountain bike shoes I've tried this is one of the only ones to rival 510 when it comes to grip. The liners nice for keeping rocks and dirt out of your shoes. They offer decent foot protection. They don't breathe the best so I usually ride a lighter weight shoe in the middle of summer and these during cooler times but that's just personal preference.
