The new Fox Union mountain bike shoe range includes two clipless models, with either Boa dials or laces, and a lace-up flat-pedal shoe.<\/p>\n

This is a first for the brand, which is well-known for its mountain bike helmets<\/a> and body protection<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Fox says its new mountain bike shoes<\/a> have spent two years in the design and development stage, taking feedback from amateur riders as well as professionals such as Greg Minnaar and Nina Hoffmann.<\/p>\n

All shoes will be available in black, grey, red and tan.<\/p>\n

The Fox Racing Union Flat is \u2013 as the name suggests \u2013 designed for flat pedals<\/a>. It has what Fox is calling an Ultratac sole. This features hex-shaped lugs, which Fox claims help with pedal engagement.<\/p>\n

The Union Flat costs \u00a3129.99 \/ $149.95 \/ \u20ac149.99 and is made using a welded construction that should keep trail spray from seeping through to your socks. This differs from other designs that use stitching, which allows for water ingress.<\/p>\n

Fox uses a one-piece upper in its design, which it says provides a consistent fit while also boosting durability.<\/p>\n

The moulded toe cap and reinforced toe box add protection from rock strikes, according to Fox.<\/p>\n
