FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for clipless pedals?
No, the Endura MT500 Burner Flat Shoes are specifically designed for use with flat pedals only. They do not have provisions for clipless pedal cleat systems.
How do I determine my correct shoe size?
Refer to the sizing guide provided by Endura, which typically involves measuring your foot length and comparing it to the chart. The UK sizing is provided in the product details (e.g., UK 11).
How durable is the sole for walking?
The sole features StickyFoot Dura tread on the toe and heel, which is designed for enhanced grip and durability when walking on varied terrain, making them suitable for hike-a-biking sections.
Can these shoes be used for casual wear?
Yes, while engineered for technical performance, the modern trainer styling and comfort features make them suitable for casual wear off the bike.
What is the primary advantage of the StickyFoot Grip rubber?
The StickyFoot Grip rubber provides exceptional friction and locks onto pedal pins, offering maximum grip and control, which is vital for aggressive riding styles.
How do I clean mud off the shoes?
After removing excess mud, use a damp cloth to wipe the shoes. Allow them to air dry naturally. Avoid using high-pressure washers or harsh chemicals.
What is the purpose of the tongue gaiter?
The tongue gaiter is designed to help keep out trail debris, such as dirt, small stones, and twigs, from entering the shoe around the tongue area.
Troubleshooting
Reduced pedal grip
Clean the StickyFoot Grip sole and your pedal pins thoroughly. Ensure the shoes are dry, as wet rubber can sometimes reduce grip.
Laces loosening during ride
Ensure laces are tied securely and the Velcro strap is firmly fastened. Consider double-knotting the laces if necessary.
Discomfort or pressure points
Adjust the lace tension for a more even distribution of pressure. Ensure the correct shoe size is being used. Break in the shoes on shorter rides initially.
Debris entering the shoe
Ensure the tongue gaiter is properly positioned and the Velcro strap is securely fastened to minimize openings.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These are flat pedal shoes, designed to be used with standard flat bicycle pedals. Ensure your pedals are clean and free of excessive mud or debris for optimal grip. The traditional lace closure, combined with a Velcro strap, allows for a customized and secure fit. Tighten the laces evenly and secure the strap to prevent loosening during your ride. The tongue gaiter helps to keep out dirt and debris.
Compatibility: Compatible with all standard flat bicycle pedals. They are designed for mountain biking, downhill, enduro, and trail riding disciplines.
Care: To clean, brush off loose dirt. Use a damp cloth to wipe down the upper and sole. Avoid harsh detergents or solvents, as they can damage the materials. For the interior, allow the shoes to air dry completely after use, especially if they become wet. Do not machine wash or tumble dry. Periodically check the tread for wear and the laces and strap for any damage.
