thebob Posted August 30 Share Hi all I'm keen on getting properly fitted for a decent pair of road cycling shoes. The Lake brand comes up again and again as the ones to go for. I'm pretty much sold on giving them a go, but I'd like to buy them from someone who will fit me properly and can help with my tragically high arches as well. Can anyone point me in the right direct to someone in JHB who can help. The website for Pure Motion Sports, who seemed to be the last distributor is dead and the local Lake site doesn't seem to have been updated for ages.

Simon Kolin Posted August 30 Share Kim Welsh was the person to talk to about LAKE, but I don’t have her contact information anymore. Hope someone can help thebob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guys at Trailwolf can sort you out, Kim is often there and they have a good relationship. thebob and DieselnDust 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebob Posted August 31 Share Sweet. That makes it super easy for me. I'll speak with Shaun to set something up Danger Dassie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
love2fly Posted September 1 Share I've had a set of Lake carbon road shoes for 10 years and love them. Kangaroo leather creaks a bit when they are cold but there are ways to address that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebob Posted September 4 Share Thanks @DieselnDust and @Danger Dassie. Just met Kim now. Foot is measured and sizing is confirmed. Apparently I have slenderAF feet, so Kim is digging into the stocks for something to fit me. The shoes I tried felt really good though. Had no idea what arch support felt like until today Edited September 4 by thebob Danger Dassie and DieselnDust 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
