FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Fox Union BOA shoes are designed for durability and breathability; while they can handle splashes, they are not fully waterproof.
Can I use these for road cycling?
These are specifically mountain bike shoes designed for 2-bolt systems and are not compatible with 3-bolt road pedal systems.
What should I do if the BOA lace snaps?
BOA offers a replacement warranty for their lacing systems; check their official website for a repair kit for your specific dial model.
Do these shoes come with cleats?
No, cleats are typically provided with your mountain bike pedals, not the shoes.
How do I choose between high and low arch inserts?
Try both during a short test ride; the correct insert should provide a sense of support under your arch without causing discomfort or pressure points.
Troubleshooting
BOA dial tension is inconsistent
Clean any debris or grit out of the dial housing using compressed air or a soft brush, then ensure the lace is not twisted.
Cleat feels loose on the pedal
Check that the cleat mounting bolts are tightened to the recommended torque and inspect the cleat for excessive wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These shoes are designed for use with standard 2-bolt mountain bike cleat systems (such as Shimano SPD). To set up, align your cleat with the mounting holes on the outsole and secure it using the manufacturer-provided hardware. Experiment with the included high and low arch support inserts to find your preferred level of support. For care, wipe away mud and debris with a soft-bristled brush and mild soap after rides. Avoid using high-heat dryers, as this can damage the performance materials; instead, air dry them in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
