MX238 Cycling Shoe

Combing Lake's legendary fit with a tough, ruggedized exterior, the MX238 Cycling Shoes are a great option for adventure races and hardy mountain bike rides. The full-grain leather construction wraps your feet in supportive comfort, while Helcor toe, heel guards, and Aramid panels work together to provide protection, abrasion-resistance, and exceptional durability. Lake builds the shoes with their full-carbon Competition sole to keep the weight down while boosting your pedaling efficiency, and then gives you two Boa dials that make it quick and easy to get a perfect fit.

Less than a year after purchasing, these shoes are so noisy I’m ready to toss them in the trash. I chased a noise for a month that I thought was coming from the bike only to finally learn it’s coming from the shoe itself. I tried new cleats, new pedals, and even a different bike. Noise follows me everywhere. These shoes are expensive, and while nice- should not be this annoying after less than a year. I reached out to Lake, and was disappointed in their customer service. My previous Pearl’s were 3 years old and never made a peep. I can not recommend these shoes.

Heal lift is real (ly bad)

Familiarity:
I returned this product before using it

I had hunted for a long time to find a MTB shoe to fit my EEE width forefoot and skinny heal/ankle and read a ton of great things about this shoe. When I first put them in my living room on I was so excited as they fit perfectly then I stood up and my heal almost came out of the back. I tried everything to fix it (different socks, tightening down the BOA) and nothing worked so I had to return them and keep searching.

These are so good.

I paid full price for these, and they’re worth it. Absolutely awesome. I’m coming from Giro Empire shoes, and also tried on Giro Sectors and Specialized Recons. These fit far better. I like the gripper stuff in the heel, the super comfortable upper material, the reflective bit on the heel, the wide toe box, and the rubber on the insole. If you miss a clip-in, these got you. Carbon is obviously high quality. And the BOAs: holy sh*t. I’m never going back. These do the micro adjustments both ways which I love. And at the end of a ride, it takes half a second to pop these off. No more fighting wet laces. Be aware that cheaper shoes don’t have the same BOA dials. Overall, these are the single best MTB purchase I’ve made apart from my bike. Sizing is dead on. I wear a 10 in running shoes, 9 in boots, and a 43.5 here fit perfectly.

Very happy with the MX238

Familiarity:
I've put it through the wringer

Wanted a stiff trail shoe that offered some protection without being bulky. MX238 checked the boxes. Tried measuring my foot according to Lake's guide and it resulted in a half size too small. Ended up with a 45.5, which is what I normally wear. The shoe might be biased wide, but with the dual boa system, I get a snug fit without any squeezing. Appreciate the nice boa dials with quick release. I tried a different shoe that didn't have the QR and sent it back. The size 45 weighted in at 435g without cleats (45.5 was 440g). Very stiff, not great for hike-a-bike, but that was expected. I've got different shoes for those days. Summary... comfortable, quality construction, and the black/camo looks awesome.
