FiveTen ‘Five Tennies’ approach shoes review

The Adidas Five Ten Five Tennies are a simple yet cult classic that continues to impress us with their blend of style, comfort, and durability (these are now almost 4 years old!).

These shoes may look unassuming, but their performance on both rugged trails and everyday activities sets them apart from many other approach shoes.
