This shoe is built for comfort and performance, ensuring you're ready for any challenge the trails throw your way.
Crafted with a stiff, fiber-reinforced nylon shank, the Candy Lace guarantees efficient power transfer.

Plus, with our innovative Match System optimising engagement for Crankbrothers clip-in pedals, you'll have no excuse not to kick some serious dust. Just a heads-up: cleats are not included, so make sure to grab a fresh set for your preferred clip-in system!

WEIGHT: 340g per shoe (US 9 / EU 42)
PREMIUM MATERIALS & CONSTRUCTION
The Candy Lace's premium synthetic upper is crafted from durable, water-resistant materials with perforations for enhanced breathability. The traditional lace closure system keeps your foot securely in place, ready for action—because those gravel roads won’t ride themselves!
OPTIMIZED PEDAL INTERFACE
With a stiff, fiber-reinforced nylon shank for efficient power transfer and an extended 35mm-length cleat track for custom positioning, these shoes offer the perfect connection to your pedals. The thoughtfully designed cleat box depth ensures optimal shoe-to-pedal contact—just the way you like it!
ADVENTURE-READY OUTSOLE
The full-coverage MC1 rubber outsole features directionally-angled toe and heel lugs, providing impressive traction across any terrain. A ramped toe and curved outsole profile ensure a natural stride off the bike, while the mid-foot anti-slip zone keeps you stable when unclipped. You’ll be climbing boulders faster than morning coffee disappears!
TOE PROTECTION
A TPU-reinforced toe box and raised outsole at the front offer crucial protection against impacts—keeping your toes safe as you conquer new trails, like a hero in an action flick. Only, in this case, you don’t need a stunt double!
'I tried these on a long ride once, and I swear my feet were singing rock ballads by the end—literally the best harmony on two wheels!'
