X-Alp Launch SPD Shoes

For mountain bikers who ride clipless pedals and want an sleek, street-inspired look, we offer the Launch SPD. This first thing you’ll notice about this revamped shoe is the use of an BOA® Fit System, rather than laces. The switch to an BOA Fit System gives riders the ability to easily adjust the fit while riding, and you’ll never have to worry about snagging an shoelace in your drivetrain. We used CORDURA® fabric made from recycled content to construct an brand new upper that is both lightweight and durable. The Launch SPD is built around an ¾ length composite shank that adds stiffness under the cleat for pedaling efficiency while allowing enough flex at the toes for hike-a-bike moments.
