The CX242 is a culmination of all of Lake's experience, advanced materials, and shoe making techniques to make a shoe that offers the best fitting solution for hard to fit foot types.

Made with a heat moldable heel counter and an uniquely designed upper that has enough adjustability to accommodate feet with any instep height or foot volume without sacrificing comfort.

Features of the Lake CX242 road shoes for men

Last: CX/TX Competition
With a profile specifically designed for very high-cadence riding & higher pressure, the Competition last features a more curved profile than the Sport last. The main differences include increased toe pitch & heel lift, a tighter heel & a slightly wider ball girth to allow the foot to expand under high pedaling pressures.

Outsole:
Lake Competition 100% Carbon Fiber Sole. A 100% carbon fiber sole that creates a comfortable, lightweight and classy package.

Upper:
Fullgrain leather and NuFoam lining with Carbon fiber support panels, which help to maintain a secure fit while adding foot stability.

Closure:
Dual Side mounted Push/Pull BOA® Fit System with releasable lace guides.

Fit: Narrow Width | Low Instep | Low Volume

Further Information

The CX242 was designed for those riders with foot issues such as bunions, deformation or extremely narrow feet who need a shoe that will not beat their feet up, giving the rider the endurance they need to stay on the bike.

The upper has separated panels that allow for fine tuning the pressure and fit which also allows the upper to conform around sensitive and painful spots on the foot without the same level of constraint that is felt in traditional shoe uppers.
