FAQs

Are these shoes compatible with all mountain bike pedals?

These shoes use a standard 2-bolt cleat pattern, making them compatible with most popular mountain bike clipless pedal systems like Shimano SPD.

How do I replace the BOA laces if they break?

The BOA Li2 system is field-replaceable. You can obtain a repair kit directly from the BOA website or an authorized dealer.

Can I use these for casual riding?

While technically possible, the stiff sole and clipless design are optimized for trail performance and may feel less comfortable for casual cycling or walking.

How do I choose the right arch support?

Experiment with the included inserts to see which provides the most neutral alignment for your foot; there is no 'one size fits all' and it should feel supportive rather than pressured.

Are the shoes waterproof?

The ripstop material is durable and breathable but is not fully waterproof. They will handle mud and splashes well but may soak through in heavy rain.

Troubleshooting

BOA dial feels gritty or won't tighten smoothly

Clear any mud or trail debris from around the dial mechanism using a soft-bristled brush or compressed air.

Foot numbness during long rides

Loosen the BOA dials slightly to increase circulation and ensure you are using the correct arch support insert for your foot shape.

Cleats slipping or loosening

Check the cleat mounting bolts for tightness and ensure the cleat shims are correctly installed if required by your specific pedal model.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your Fox Union BOA shoes, first install your preferred 2-bolt mountain bike cleats according to your specific pedal system manufacturer's instructions. Ensure the bolts are tightened securely to the desired position in the cleat channel. For long-term care, wipe the shoes down with a damp cloth after muddy rides to preserve the breathability of the ripstop upper. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as high heat can damage the bonding agents and the BOA lacing system. If the shoes become soaked, remove the insoles and air dry them naturally away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Periodically check the BOA dials for debris and clear them with a light brush to ensure smooth operation.
