Pearl Izumi X-ALP Launch Shoes (Phantom/Black) (41) (Flat)

Mountain bikers who ride flat pedals deserve shoes with as much advanced technology as those who ride clipless, which is why Pearl Izumi developed this flat pedal shoe with a BOA Fit System to provide unrivaled fit and comfort. The redesigned Launch Flat builds on everything there is to love about riding flat pedals: freedom of movement, versatility, walkability, and kicks all the downsides to the curb. The Launch uses a lightweight, quick-drying upper, constructed from durable Cordura fabric made with recycled content. Pearl Izumi partnered with the rubber experts at Goodyear to develop a tread compound that’s both sticky and long-wearing for the PinLoc Outsole, which is wider for more surface contact and uses a chevron tread design to capture pedal pins, keeping your feet planted and in control.

• BOA Fit System with L6C dial lets riders fine-tune fit while they ride

• Seamless, perforated upper is breathable and quick-drying, made with durable recycled Cordura
