{"product_id":"lake-cx242-shoes","title":"Lake CX242 Shoes","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eLake CX242 Shoes\u003c\/strong\u003e exist because most road cycling shoes are designed for average feet, and a lot of riders don't have average feet. Lake built the CX242 around a single idea: fit first, everything else second. The result is a full-performance road shoe with a 100% carbon sole and dual BOA closure that can accommodate bunions, high or low instep, unusual width, or other fit challenges that force riders to compromise on every other shoe they try.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eThe upper is the defining feature. Rather than a single-piece construction, it's segmented into six independent zones — each one can flex, expand, or conform independently as the BOA dials are tightened. This means pressure can be relieved from sensitive spots without loosening the fit everywhere else. The material is fullgrain leather or Clarino microfiber depending on the colorway, with a NuFoam lining for cushioning and Carbitex support panels woven in to add stability and reinforce the closure. A heat moldable carbon fiber heel counter rounds out the fit system — custom-moldable to your heel shape, it doubles down on heel hold and eliminates the slip that undermines power transfer and causes blisters on long rides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eThe last is Lake's CX\/TX Competition profile, shaped specifically for high-cadence riding under load. Compared to the Sport last, it has increased toe pitch, more heel lift, and a tighter heel cup — a geometry that keeps the foot locked in position when the pressure is on. The ball girth is slightly wider to account for natural foot expansion during hard efforts, preventing the numbness and hot spots that can develop when a stiff shoe clamps down on a swelling foot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eSpecs at a Glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul class=\"specs_at_a_glance\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLast:\u003c\/strong\u003e CX\/TX
