Check out the Five Ten Sleuth and Spitfire if you are looking for a skate style sneaker, and the District Flats for a business casual commuter shoe.

I’ve ridden the Spitfires and Sleuths (plus the discontinued Dirtbag) that share the same cupsole platform that’s more flexible and lighter than the Freeriders.
