Product Information
Full details
The Crankbrothers Stamp Lace Cycling Shoes are designed for mountain bikers seeking a secure, high-grip connection to flat pedals. Featuring the specialized MC2 high-friction rubber outsole and a pedal-optimized tread pattern, these shoes provide exceptional stability and control for both aggressive trail riding and casual riding. While they excel in power transfer and durability, the performance-focused, stiff construction may feel slightly less comfortable for long periods of walking compared to standard athletic footwear.

FAQs
Do these shoes require special pedals?
These are designed specifically for flat pedals, particularly the Crankbrothers Stamp range, but they are compatible with any high-quality mountain bike flat pedal.
Should I size up for these shoes?
No, these shoes run true to your standard UK shoe size based on the USA last sizing. You do not need to size up.
Are these shoes waterproof?
They feature breathable mesh windows for ventilation, so they are not waterproof and will absorb water if submerged.
Can I replace the laces?
Yes, standard round laces can be used as replacements if the originals are damaged.
What is the best way to clean mud off the soles?
Use a stiff-bristled nylon brush under lukewarm running water to dislodge debris from the tread pattern.
Troubleshooting
Foot slipping on pedals
Clean the pedal pins and the shoe outsole to remove mud or debris buildup.
Laces coming loose during rides
Ensure the laces are fully tucked into the dedicated tongue lace pocket after tying.
Shoe feels too tight over the arch
Loosen the lacing across the midfoot to allow the material to accommodate higher insteps.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These shoes use a standard USA last, meaning they run true to your normal UK street shoe size; there is no need to size up when ordering. To ensure the longest lifespan, keep the following in mind:
- Fitting: Ensure the heel is locked into the heel dots when lacing up to prevent foot lift.
- Storage: Always tuck laces into the tongue pocket before starting your ride to prevent them from catching on components.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush and mild soap to clean the mesh windows and rubber outsole. Avoid high-pressure washers, which can force water into the padded areas and degrade adhesive bonds.
- Drying: Air dry only at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can warp the materials or harden the rubber compound.
