FAQs
Can I use these shoes with clipless pedals?
No, the Stamp Lace series is specifically engineered for flat pedal use and does not contain a cleat mounting box.
How should I clean the mesh panels?
Use a soft brush and water to gently scrub mud from the mesh. Avoid high-pressure washers, which can force debris into the inner lining.
Are these shoes suitable for enduro racing?
Yes, they provide the durability and grip required for enduro racing, provided you prefer a flat pedal setup.
Will these shoes keep my feet dry?
While the shoes are durable, they are designed for breathability. They will get wet in heavy rain or deep puddles.
What is the primary benefit of the MC2 rubber?
The MC2 compound is a high-friction rubber that grips pedal pins effectively while maintaining high abrasion resistance for durability.
Troubleshooting
Feeling disconnected from pedals
Check your pedal pins for wear; replace dull or broken pins to regain grip with the MC2 rubber.
Shoes feel too loose after riding
Ensure the heel dots are clean. Dust or mud on the heel liner can reduce grip; wipe with a damp cloth to restore friction.
Excessive moisture inside the shoe
If riding in wet conditions, use the ventilation windows for air drying, but consider applying a water-repellent spray to the exterior mesh.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, verify that your flat pedals have sharp, well-spaced pins to interface correctly with the Stamp tread pattern. To achieve the best fit, pull the laces firmly but evenly across the eyelets to distribute pressure. When cleaning, remove mud using a soft-bristled brush and lukewarm water. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can degrade the rubber compound and weaken the mesh components. Always air dry your shoes in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the materials to warp or crack over time.
