FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for road cycling?
The Muddyfox MTB100 shoes are designed for mountain biking, featuring a reinforced sole and SPD compatibility. While they can technically be used with SPD road pedals, their construction is optimized for off-road durability and grip, not the smooth, aerodynamic profile typically preferred for road cycling.
What kind of pedals are these shoes compatible with?
These cycling shoes are compatible with SPD (Shimano Pedaling Dynamics) clipless pedal systems. They are not designed for flat pedals or other clipless systems without specific adapters.
Are the shoes fully waterproof?
The shoes feature a waterproof / breathable upper, meaning they offer protection against splashes and light rain. They are not designed to be fully submerged or to provide complete waterproofing in heavy, prolonged rain.
How do I choose the correct size?
Please refer to the sizing information provided by Muddyfox. Cycling shoe sizing can sometimes differ from regular street shoe sizing. It's often recommended to measure your foot length and compare it to the brand's size chart. Ensure enough room for your toes without your heel slipping.
Can I walk in these shoes?
While you can walk short distances in these shoes, especially with SPD cleats that are often recessed, they are optimized for cycling performance. The stiff sole and cleat placement make them less comfortable and efficient for extended walking compared to regular footwear.
How often should I clean my cycling shoes?
It's best practice to clean your cycling shoes after particularly muddy or dusty rides. Regular wiping with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt will help maintain their appearance and prolong their lifespan. Ensure they are fully dry before storage.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too loose or too tight
Adjust the three touch and close fastening straps. Ensure they are tightened evenly across the foot. For a loose fit, tighten all straps. For a tight fit, loosen them slightly, ensuring comfort without excessive movement.
Feet feel hot and sweaty during rides
The shoes feature mesh panels for breathability. Ensure you are wearing appropriate cycling socks that wick moisture away. If the issue persists, check that the shoes are not overtightened, which can restrict airflow. Consider riding conditions and personal hydration.
Difficulty clipping in or out of SPD pedals
Check your SPD cleat position and tension on your pedals. Ensure cleats are securely fastened to the shoe's sole. If cleats are new, they may require a break-in period. Lubricate pedal mechanisms if stiffness is observed. Consult your pedal's manual for cleat adjustment and tension settings.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

- Secure Fit: Close the straps, starting from the toe end, adjusting each for a snug yet comfortable fit. Ensure no pressure points are created.
- Cleat Installation (if applicable): If using with clipless pedals, install compatible SPD cleats (not included with shoes) onto the sole plate according to the cleat manufacturer's instructions. Adjust cleat position for optimal comfort and pedaling efficiency.
Compatibility
These Muddyfox MTB100 Cycling Shoes are designed for use with SPD pedal systems. They are not intended for use with flat pedals or other clipless pedal systems (e.g., Look KEO, Crankbrothers) unless specific adapters are used. The reinforced sole plate is optimized for clipless pedal engagement.
Care
- Cleaning: Wipe clean the outer textile and synthetic upper with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe with a clean damp cloth. Allow to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.
- Drying: If shoes become wet, remove any insoles and stuff with newspaper to absorb moisture. Allow to air dry thoroughly at room temperature.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
- Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
