CX 302 WOMEN’S

This superb road cycling shoe comes with a women’s CX /TX Last. The higher cadence & longer ride times which characterize road cycling require excellent foot control to avoid hot spots & numbness. With a much closer fit than any of our off-road lasts, our Sport Last cradles the foot securely to prevent any unwanted movement. This ‘Last’ features a precisely fitted toe-box, high arch & mid width ball girth, all of which are refined in this model for the elements we mentioned earlier regarding women’s feet.

It has a carbon fibre sole, which is available in a 3-hole cleat pattern. The CX 302 utilizes Lake’s patent double sole system. The inner sole is a semi flexible carbon fibre platform, that allows the foot to have some flexibility at the ball of the foot where the foot tends to swell, and typically hot spots or numbness would occur. The inner sole is then suspended over the outer rigid carbon sole. This system enables us to use an extremely stiff carbon outsole without sacrificing riding comfort, producing a cycling shoe that is both performance oriented and which provides women’s feet with ultimate cycling comfort. The upper has Clarino Microfiber and mesh, with a Carbitex Medial Support panel for a super secure fit. It’s all finished off with a dual BOA closure system, which allows you to bring in the upper at different pressures across the foot, creating a second skin feeling. Best of all, because we know that it’s important – it’s also a super stylish shoe, like you!

CX 403 WOMEN’S

The Lake CX 403 is a technical performance shoe for cycling, and this women’s specific model, once again takes on board those 3 critical biometric differences with women’s feet. Like the CX 302, this shoe uses the CX / TX Last for women, making sure that, when performance is important to you, we consider every aspect – and that we recognise the important needs of female cyclists.

The shoe features a slightly narrower toe box and tighter heel than the Competition Last, and less overall volume than the Sport Last. It’s a shoe designed for very high-cadence riding and higher-pressure riding, and it comes in a race ready slimer fit. It has a custom carbon fibre sole and Carbitex OmniFlex Carbon Fibre Stabilizer Support panels, which help to keep the foot stabilized, control stretch and allow for that all-important increased power transfer. It’s also a shoe that can be heated and moulded closely to your heel meaning that this shoe can be heated and moulded to your feet.

Badly fitting shoes lose power, and the ability to closely mould the CX 403 to your feet, maximises power transfer and performance. Along with the super stiff sole, it’s a shoe that will wrap your feet in ultimate on-the-bike comfort, whilst delivering results in racing. Thanks to the exceptional fit, your foot stays firmly planted with every pedal stroke.
