Lake CX177 – Finding your feet in cycling

The ideal cycling shoe for club riders and leisure cycling

At Lake, our ethos is simple: we want to create cycling shoes that provide all riders with comfort, add some necessary style and along the way, increase their cycling performance too. Our cycling shoes – on road and off-road - are renowned across the world as being some of the best and most comfortable cycling shoes available. We’ve got over 40 years of experience in helping cyclists everywhere to find their fit. Yes, with one of the most extensive ranges of cycling shoes in the world, we don’t have a starter shoe – we simply have more models of cycling shoes than anyone else, so that you can always find your own perfect fit.

We understand that everyone is different and that the individual needs of the cyclist varies. That’s why we designed our Lake CX177 road cycling shoe, and the MX177 for mountain bikes and gravel. It’s the cycling shoe that supports our original Sport ‘last’ and is a more spacious cycling shoe for the wider foot. We’ve developed this over the years, which remaining true to our values of providing cyclists with the most comfortable cycling shoes possible – wherever and whoever you are.

Not everyone needs a technical race-ready cycling shoe to power you ahead of the peloton. The Lake CX177 has become legendary within the global cycling community, as an affordable option for club riders and leisure cyclists alike, looking for a high-quality cycling shoe that can provide them with the ultimate in cycling shoe comfort, without breaking the bank.

Cycling is food for the soul

Okay, going slightly off-tangent, but with good reason, I want to remind you that cycling is food for the soul. When we cycle and start to relax and to enjoy life, we release endorphins which make us feel better – producing those smiles along our cycling miles! Thanks to the number and range of shoe lasts that we use here at Lake, we’re confident that our cycling shoes will produce more of those good endorphins, by wrapping your feet in a way that no other cycling shoe brand can.

Our CX177 is created on our CX Sport ‘last’; it’s a shoe last designed for higher cadence and longer ride times, which characterize road cycling and which require excellent foot control to avoid hot-spots & numbness. Ill-fitting cycling shoes will hurt your feet and yes, you will feel hot-spots and numbness. The Lake Sport ‘last’ cradles the foot securely to prevent any unwanted and unnecessary movement; and, in doing so, it also ensures that all of your effort is transferred into forward momentum. This ‘last’ features a precisely fitted toe-box, giving your forefoot the room that it requires, and it’s an ideal cycling shoe shape for high arch and mid-width ball girth.

What really makes the CX177 stand out though, is its amazing Fiberglass injected nylon sole. Lake’s nylon sole is world famous for its uncompromising comfort and performance. No other injection nylon sole offers the same level of stiffness or comfort. It’s food for the soul of every cyclist!

For off-road adventures too

Our Lake MX177 off-road shoe uses the similar MX Sport ‘last’, supporting aggressive and full-throttle riding while remaining comfortable to wear all day on those technical trails. It’s also the ideal cycling shoe for couriers, adventure cyclists, bike-packers and anyone else who wears their cycling shoes for long periods of time and requires all day comfort.

Our industry-leading nylon sole is combined with a real rubber Enduro sole, giving you that necessary grip on all surfaces and making those unplanned hike-a-bike periods as comfortable as possible. It’s a versatile off-road and city cycling shoe that will last you for many years to come.
