Great fit for wide feet
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
- Size Bought

I recently purchased a pair of MX 241 Wide. I love them. I've been a cyclist for over 30 years and I've struggled to find comfortable cycling shoes. I mostly ride on the road and gravel. I ride Shimano SPD two bolt pedals (mtb). The MX 241 shoes have a unique upper design that contours to the shape of your foot. The heel is moldable as well. My experience with my new shoes has been bliss. No hot spots, no pain. I am using custom insoles from Specialized. My previous pair of shoes was Lake MX 237 Wide. They were very good shoes but the upper is more rigid and less able to conform to the shape of your foot. I can say based on those shoes that I expect the MX 241 to be very durable. When I switched to MTB pedals for all of my riding, I was concerned about wear to the rubber on either side of the cleat. After 4 years of use, my MX 237's show very little wear. The MX 241's use an identical carbon sole and rubber tread. Lake shoes are very well made in my experience.

These cycling shoes are expensive. But you get what you pay for. Immediately comfortable. Did 65 miles, the first ride. All I can say is, I wish I got them sooner. I have big, wide feet. Size 13US. The 48 wide fits beautifully. Just an excellent, quality shoe!!!

Followed the guidance on the LAKE website. Traced my foot, measured, and used the sizing tables provided. The shoe fits well and its the first shoe I have used that is not excessively long (as I tended to up-size to gain width). My previous shoe was the Giro HV mountain shoe in half size too large... and it was not wide enough and created nerve impingement in my right foot. The LAKE shoe is sufficiently wide to prevent that issue. I was not excited about the BOA cable bindings as I didn't really understand them and they looked rather fragile. I found them to be very tough and they have performed well. They distribute tension more like a tradition lace. The ability to micro-tighten in tiny clicks is a real benefit of the BOA and you can actually do it while your riding. The action to reach down and add a click or two is sort of like reaching for a water bottle. It was hard to spend this much on a shoe, but so far it was worth it. I have over 500 miles on them at this point. Great choice for the wide foot. For you wide foot people, I also recently picked up some Exustar sandals which have a good fit as-well. "Hey.. Backcountry / CompCycle should should add the Exustar to your inventory. I think you could do some cross-selling to the Sasquatch crowd.
