Product Information

Full details

The Fox Union Clipless Shoes are designed for mountain bikers seeking a balance between rugged trail performance and all-day comfort. These shoes feature a specialized Ultratac rubber outsole and a reinforced internal shank, making them ideal for aggressive trail riding and technical terrain. While they provide excellent power transfer for clipless pedal systems, riders should note that the stiff sole design is optimized for riding efficiency, which may feel firmer during long periods of walking compared to casual footwear.

FAQs

Are these shoes compatible with all MTB pedals?

The Fox Union Clipless shoes use a standard 2-bolt cleat system, making them compatible with most major clipless pedal brands like Shimano SPD.

Can I walk normally in these shoes?

Yes, while they are optimized for power transfer, the EVA midsole and tread pattern are designed to provide comfort and grip for hike-a-bike sections.

How do I choose the right cleat position?

Use the printed 'Power and Control' guide on the bottom of the shoe to align your cleats according to your preferred level of stability versus movement.

Are the shoes waterproof?

The shoes are weather-resistant, featuring a welded construction that protects against splashes and light rain, though they are not fully waterproof.

How do I clean the Ultratac rubber sole?

Use a stiff-bristle brush to remove dried mud and wipe with a damp cloth; avoid using harsh chemicals that could degrade the rubber compound.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty clipping into pedals

Check if the cleat is installed correctly and ensure no mud is obstructing the pedal mechanism or the shoe sole.

Foot discomfort during long rides

Try swapping the internal arch support for a different size to better match your foot anatomy.

Laces loosening during use

Ensure the low-profile Velcro strap is tightened firmly over the laces to secure them in place.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Cleat Installation

These shoes feature a standard 2-bolt cleat interface compatible with most major MTB pedal systems, such as Shimano SPD. The bottom of the shoe includes a "Power and Control" guide to help you find the optimal cleat placement based on your riding style.

Care Instructions

  • Clean the exterior with a soft brush and mild soapy water to remove mud and trail grime.
  • Remove the insoles and allow the shoes to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources to prevent material damage.
  • Inspect the sole and cleat bolts regularly for debris or loosening to ensure consistent performance.
