These shoes are designed primarily for SPD/clipless pedals. While they have a platform for connection, they are optimized for cleat engagement.
No, they feature ventilated mesh windows for breathability and are not designed to be waterproof.
Yes, a Crankbrothers match shim and cleat are pre-installed for your convenience.
Use a soft brush and water to gently remove dirt from the perforated mesh. Avoid harsh detergents.
The Match Box system is designed to be compatible with all major brands of SPD cleats.
Tuck the excess lace loops into the lace pocket located on the top of the tongue to prevent them from catching on components.
Check that the Match Shim is properly seated and that the cleat bolts are tightened to the recommended torque settings.
Verify the height of the cleat and shim; you may need to adjust the shim thickness or ensure the cleat is not obstructed by mud or debris.
Ensure the laces are tightened evenly throughout the eyelets and check that the internal heel dots are free of accumulated grit.
Setting up these shoes is straightforward: use the pre-installed Match Shim as your baseline, align your SPD cleat, and tighten the hardware to the manufacturer-specified torque. These shoes are compatible with all standard 2-bolt MTB cleat configurations. For care, ensure the shoes are air-dried after wet rides to maintain the integrity of the mesh. Do not machine wash; instead, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. If the internal heel dots lose grip due to dirt buildup, gently clean them with a soft brush to restore the rubber's friction.
