Product Information
Full details
The Crankbrothers Stamp Lace Cycling Shoes are designed for mountain bike riders who prioritize a traditional, secure fit combined with high-performance flat pedal grip. Featuring the specialized MC2 rubber compound, these shoes deliver excellent vibration dampening and traction for both aggressive trail riding and hike-a-bike sections; however, users should be aware that the lace-up system requires manual adjustment compared to more modern dial-based closure alternatives.

FAQs
Are these shoes compatible with clipless pedals?
No, the Stamp Lace series is specifically engineered for flat pedals and does not feature mounting points for cleats.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the adhesives and the structure of the shoe. Use mild soap and water with a soft brush.
How do I ensure the best fit for UK size 11?
These shoes follow standard UK sizing. Ensure you wear your cycling-specific socks when trying them on to verify proper volume and width.
What is the purpose of the internal heel dots?
The heel dots are high-friction inserts designed to grab your sock and prevent the shoe from sliding or lifting at the heel while pedaling.
Are the shoes waterproof?
They are water-resistant and durable, but not fully waterproof. They are designed to breathe, which means water can eventually penetrate if submerged.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming loose during rides
Ensure you are using the integrated lace pocket properly; the pocket tension should help keep the knot secure while shielding it from snagging.
Feeling too much vibration through the pedals
Check your pedal pin height. While the MC2 rubber dampens vibration, very long pedal pins may poke through to the midsole if they are adjusted to their maximum length.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent grip on flat pedals thanks to MC2 rubber
- Secure heel retention prevents foot lift
- Durable TPU reinforcements for longevity

Cons

- Requires manual lace tucking to avoid snagging
Setup, Compatibility & Care
These shoes are designed for use with flat mountain bike pedals, particularly those with adjustable pins that can interface with the tread. To ensure a long lifespan, keep the following tips in mind:
- Fitting: Ensure the laces are tightened evenly across the bridge of the foot before tucking them into the lace pocket.
- Cleaning: After muddy rides, remove debris from the tread pattern using a stiff brush. Wipe the upper with a damp cloth.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature. Avoid placing them directly against heaters, as excessive heat can degrade the rubber compound and adhesive bonds.
- Storage: Always tuck the laces completely into the provided pocket to prevent them from catching on chainrings or crank arms during your ride.
