"Stack" on shoes should be a design feature. We spend good coin on thin pedals, buy the lowest bikes that we can for our terrain, and then shoes have 30mm midsoles, pushing us back up.
It's why I liked the basic Freeriders over the OG Impacts. The Freerider Pros are OK, but not great in this regard. I always wonder if a company could keep thin mindsoles like the cheap Freeriders, but use a denser material that doesn't break down so fast. They get pretty floppy after a few months.
