What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"The CX333 is one of the most precise-fitting race shoes I've worn, thanks to the BOA Li2 dials letting me make micro-adjustments mid-ride without stopping. The full carbon sole is noticeably stiff underfoot, and the kangaroo leather upper molds to the foot in a way most synthetic materials just can't replicate. One heads-up: these run large, so I'd recommend sizing down before your first ride."Race day starts with the right foundation, and the Lake CX333 Cycling Shoe gives serious road riders exactly that. Whether the goal is a personal best on a familiar climb or a podium finish at a local crit, this shoe eliminates the variables that cost time and energy. Lake built the CX333 on their CX/TX RACE last, a shape designed specifically for high-speed output, so every watt generated at the pedal goes exactly where it needs to go. The upper is constructed from Klite Kangaroo leather, a material prized for its light weight and ability to conform to the foot over time without losing structure. Beneath it, a Lake Race 100% carbon fiber sole delivers uncompromising stiffness for maximum power transfer, while the Carbitex arch support panel adds an extra layer of precision underfoot. The BOA(R) Fit System with Li2 dials lets riders dial in fit on the fly, and the heat-moldable Thermaform carbon fiber heel counter wraps the back of the foot for a locked-in feel that holds through the hardest efforts. Note that the CX333 runs large, so sizing down is recommended for the best fit.
