Mountain Bike Shoes
Mountain biking puts unique demands on your feet. You need stiffness for climbing power, grip for hike-a-bike sections, protection from rock strikes — and comfort that lasts from the first pedal stroke to the last. Here at Lake, we build MTB shoes that deliver on all of that, with something no other brand can match: genuine wide-fit options across most of our range.
16 products
Every Lake MTB shoe uses a 2-bolt SPD-compatible cleat pattern and features real rubber outsoles engineered for confident hiking, scrambling, and walking on technical terrain. From the race-ready MX333 to the trail-versatile MX239 to the go-anywhere MX201, there's a Lake MTB shoe for every rider and every trail.
Wide feet? Most Lake MTB models come in Regular and Wide. Check our Fit Matrix to find the right last for your foot shape.
Choosing Your Lake Mountain Bike Shoe
The MTB Range
Race: MX333 — $529.99. Our flagship MTB shoe. 100% carbon fiber sole with real rubber off-road tread and durable TPU lugs with toe spike provisions. Choose between Clarino Microfiber or Helcor abrasion-resistant leather uppers. Carbitex Medial Support panel. Dual BOA Li2 dials. Outlast temperature-regulating liner. Heat-moldable Thermaform carbon fiber heel counter for a personalized fit. Available in Narrow, Regular, and Wide. Custom color options available.
Hard-to-fit: MX242 — $429.99. Designed specifically for riders with bunions, deformities, or difficult foot shapes. The MX242's upper is segmented into 6 independent zones — each wrapping your foot independently, accommodating bumps and bony prominences that would cause pressure in a conventional shoe. Full carbon fiber sole with real rubber Mountain Competition tread. Ecco full-grain leather and Helcor panels. Dual BOA Li2. Moldable heel counter. Regular and Wide.
Performance: MX239 — $359.99. The performance all-rounder. Full carbon fiber sole with Mountain Competition real rubber tread and extended protection. Clarino Microfiber or Helcor leather upper with Outlast heel lining. Dual BOA Li2 dials with wider spacing than the MX238 for more precise two-zone adjustment. Regular and Wide. Sizes 37-52.
Comfort and versatility: MX201 — $289.99. Built on our widest last — the Comfort Plus Last — the MX201 gives your toes the room they need to spread naturally under load. Fiberglass-injected nylon sole with real rubber Enduro tread. Dual BOA Li2. Here's what makes the MX201 unique: it's compatible with both SPD clipless pedals and flat/cage pedals, so you can ride clipped in on the trail and flat on your commute. Cleat Caps sold separately.
Sport: MX190, MX177, MX169. Our entry-level MTB range, built for riders entering the sport or those who want durable, well-fitting shoes for recreational riding and commuting. Fiberglass-injected nylon soles with real rubber Enduro tread — the same grippy outsole compound used on our performance shoes. The MX190 features dual BOA L6 dials, the MX177 uses a single BOA L6, and the MX169 features laces with our most hiking-friendly sole. MX190 and MX177: Regular and Wide. MX169: Regular only, Comfort Plus Last, also flat-pedal compatible (Cleat Caps sold separately).
Why Riders Choose Lake for MTB
It comes down to fit. Too many MTB shoe brands design for a single, narrow foot shape — and if your foot doesn't match, you're stuck with numbness, hot spots, and painful rides. Here at Lake, we build our MTB shoes on multiple last shapes, each available in multiple widths, so you can find a shoe that wraps your foot like a second skin instead of squeezing it into a compromise.
That's why bike fitters around the world consistently recommend Lake: because we offer more ways to get the fit right than anyone else in cycling.
FAQ
What cleats work with Lake MTB shoes?
All Lake MTB shoes use the 2-bolt mounting pattern, compatible with Shimano SPD, Crankbrothers, Time ATAC, and similar clipless pedal systems.
Do you make flat pedal MTB shoes?
The MX201 and MX169 are compatible with both clipless SPD and flat/cage pedals thanks to their Enduro sole design. Cleat Caps (sold separately) cover the cleat port when riding flat for a clean pedal interface.
Can I fit toe spikes to Lake MTB shoes?
The MX333 has toe spike provisions built into the outsole. The MX177 accepts toe spikes in sizes 39+. Note: sizes 36-38 in the MX177 do not accept toe spikes.
Which Lake MTB shoe has the widest fit?
The MX201 on the Comfort Plus Last has the widest toebox. For riders with bunions or very specific fit needs, the MX242 offers a segmented upper that wraps independently around problem areas.
What is the difference between the MX239 and the MX239 Gravel?
Same sole platform, but the Gravel version has lighter rubber tread coverage for less weight and more flexibility — better suited for gravel roads and mixed terrain where aggressive MTB lugs are not needed.
