eddie.lubbe Posted April 17, 2019 Share I have very wide feet and finding the right shoe with width at the front (as apposed to high volume shoes) a huge problem. Lake and Bont are hard to come by. What other brands can you suggest? Mountain bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MudLark Posted April 17, 2019 Share Lake shoes. They specifically provide for wider feet. They will ask you to send them an outline of your feet and indicate how they should be measured so that they can tell you what size shoe you require. Moreover, they will send you – if you are in Johannesburg, at least – a set of shoes for trial fitting. I have found them to be absolutely excellent – both in terms of service and in terms of the quality of the shoe. Previously I had a lot of problems with numb feet – no more. https://lakeshoes.co.za Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselnDust Posted April 17, 2019 Share Any shoe/model in particular you can recommend? depends on your budget. MX218 is about R3500 and MX 237 is R4500, MX237 ENdurance is R4900 and Supecross is R5400.They're all based on the competition last which is sort of the middle fit last.The race last on the MX332 and higher end models is a little narrower in both the forefoot and heel to cater for lower BMI riders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_ Posted April 17, 2019 Share Granted I didn't do my research properly, but I bought Shimano RC9's also based on hearing they were better for wide feet. They are better, but still far from good. Edit: sorry, these are the road shoes Edited April 17, 2019 by CBlake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsw Posted April 17, 2019 Share I also found the service provided by Lake shoes absolutely top class. They delivered 2 pairs of road shoes to try out to my doorstep ( Cape Town) in no time. Great road shoes too... will not easily buy any other brand again. DieselnDust 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robodog Posted April 17, 2019 Share Five Tens Most of them are for flat pedals but there are a few models with cleated functionality. All my Five Tens are the comfiest shoes I own. http://cdn.coresites.factorymedia.com/dirt_new/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/EDH_6652-1020x680.jpg Reden 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
