The Fifth Element evokes the excitement of the early '00s all over again. It's odd to think the model was unavailable for over a decade but we couldn't be more pleased to see this boot thriving on the streets again. One distinct advantage of the Fifth Element over its sibling (the Roces M12) is its wider shell and toe box. Meaning those with broader feet should benefit from choosing the 'chunkier' model in the Roces line. 

The two-piece soul kit converts the Fifth Element into a modern UFS skate with great soul space and a reliable backslide plate. The memory foam liner is comfortable and supports the ankle correctly with a heel lock. The cuff hugs the calf muscle and creates a VERY solid feeling when landing, even off small curbs.
