FAQ

Is the camo version still heat-moldable?: The Wide version uses a wide MX Competition last, built around a broader forefoot and heel than the Regular. The camo color is printed on Helcor leather and remains fully heat-moldable.

What is HeatFit?: HeatFit is Lake's heat-moldable upper technology. Heat from an oven or heat gun (typically applied by a trained fitter) softens the leather panels so they reshape around your foot when worn and cooled.

Is the MX242 SPD compatible?: Yes. The MX242 uses Shimano SPD two-bolt cleat mounting, compatible with all standard SPD pedal systems.

Can I add toe spikes to this shoe?: Yes, the MX242 accepts replaceable toe spikes (sold separately) for added grip in soft, muddy, or icy conditions.
