$1350 - $1850 shoes!
The higher-priced model is made from carbon.
I would be curious to hear the community’s thoughts on this.

“Alien-like Morphic™ process equals the best fitting and biomechanically efficient shoes ever made.”
I’m sold!
“magnified power production and ultimate performance”
I’m almost sold, I just need to confirm the power magnification ratio to see how much extra power I’ll get.
“patent pending dorsal fin” = “speed skate boot” ?
All razzing aside, V2 looks wayyy better than V1
If I had the budget for custom made shoes based on a digital scan of my feet, I’d consider them.
Unfortunately, I don’t, but I can’t begrudge anyone who does. We all have our priorities. My neighbors think I’m nuts for having an expensive bike.
I’m waiting for the spray-on model.
They should have servos to tighten and loosen them, along with blips
I have super wide, weird shaped feet that I cannot get cycling shoes for. Currently in Bont double wide which are expensive enough. I’d love a pair of these if money wasn’t a factor, however it may come to a point where I must buy custom shoes or have to stop riding. If it gets to that point then any custom shoe is going to cost $1k, so do I stop riding or pay a crazy price for the shoes?
So when people look at the cost of Lore shoes, it may be crazy just for performance gains, but for others it may be a way to overcome challenging feet… still very very, crazy expensive.
If you are spending big dollars on bikes, wheels, etc, why would you skimp on shoes. Poorly fitting shoes can make riding miserable. Spend the money on custom shoes and insoles and work with the person building the shoes. I’ve be riding in Lamson shoes for decades. They last for many years and are well worth the cost. I have a 4E foot with narrow heels.
I have to imagine that you’d feel like a poor if you chose the $1350 version over the $1800 one.
Does anyone have an real world feedback on these? I have been struggling with pain for the past 2 years and after countless bikefit and trying all major shoe brands and insoles these are like my last resort.
Hi, I have a similar issue due to Halux Valgus (sounds better than bunion
) on my foot. I am having success with Lake CX238 shoes; not as light as some but I tried them after Bont’s no longer worked for me. I appreciate my reply is late but hope it helps.
The biggest problem with custom shoes off a foot mold or 3D scan is that the shape of your foot isn’t the same when it’s under load. Arches flatten, toes splay, etc etc., and it’s somewhat unique to your build. The success rate of custom shoes is much lower than the marketing would lead you to believe, but if you think you’ve exhausted all options, it could be worth a go.
I think my shimano xc 1 shoes I got on clearance for $35 work just fine.
Website is terrible. People want to see the shoe from 1000 different angles and not just in black. Looks like a shoe for robin hood
