Remember- No fuss around shoes- !!! More fuss about the technique- I would go with the shoes that you are going to wear everyday- that you will be wearing if Parkour will ever be handy. I will choose based on that question. ;) hope that helped!

i think the five fingers are cool, but too specific. if you had specific times where you wanted to use the five fingers, i would get them, but as an alternative. as kirill said, use the ones that are better suited for general use. you wont always be wearing your uber-deluxe-super-sticky-ultra-cushioned shoes the whole time, and dont want to be too dependent on them. get something that fits your own style, has some cushion and nice toe coverage, good grip in general, no plastic arch things, and are durable. i this case id pick the 5.10s over the five fingers.
