Lake TX224 Wide Triathlon Race Shoes in White/Black

For seamless transition on and off the bike, the TX224 is the ultimate lightweight, breathable, fast drying, and fast transitioning Triathlon shoe. The TX224 has taken a new approach to how Triathlon shoes function by not sacrificing comfort and adjustability for fast entry/exit. Lake's unique design allows for superior adjustment and a familiarity of a closure system that runners will appreciate. The new speed draw-string lace system is quick and easy to secure, wrapping the extended mesh upper around the foot and maximizing air flow to keep your feet fresh and ahead of the game.

Their carbon fiber soles alongside the secure toe box provides a comfortable and secure fit, maximizing stability, power transfer and performance. With an added sleek but substantial rubber toe bumper, the front of the shoe is also given long term protection. The TX224 is the perfect combination of technically advanced upper materials, a secure closure system and an ultralight and stiff carbon sole.

Features:

• Last: The TX224 is an industry first to offer the same model in 3 distinct last shapes and widths. Lake knows how individual you are, and they wanted to ensure that whatever your foot shape, Lake has the fit for you as a triathlete. For Narrow volume feet the Race Last is the correct choice, Mid-size feet the Competition Last and for larger volume feet or barefoot shoe fans the Comfort Plus Last is the perfect solution. 
  CX/TX Comfort Plus Last – (Wide Width) The Comfort Plus last has the most generous forefoot platform of all of their CX/TX lasts. This last will accommodate a multitude of foot shapes and allow for toe splaying. Made for those riders who struggle to find an unrestricted shoe for the shape of their feet.
• Outsole: Using Lake's Carbon Fiber Soles with replaceable heel pads to maximize performance while maintaining the lightest possible shoe. Available in a 3-hole cleat pattern. 
  Wide Width: Lake Comfort Plus Carbon Composite Sole
• Upper:  The TX224 has a Clarino Microfiber upper with NuFoam™ breathable, wicking shell with Trek-Dry antimicrobial liner and a heel-side mounted elastic rubber band holder for setting the shoe up for fast transitions. NuFoam’s unique design works in a way that keeps your foot feeling cool and dry.
  The innermost layer of the NuFoam package is Trek-Dry antimicrobial & wicking fabric made from carbonized bamboo. The Trek-dry draws moisture away from the foot towards the surface of the shoe. The middle layer of the NuFoam package is a 2mm closed cell perforated foam that works as a spacer to allow air to flow into the shoe, thus creating evaporation and maximizing comfort. This process works as a cooling system, with the evaporating moisture helping to cool the foot down, while also keeping it dry as you head towards the next transition.
• Closure: Utilizing a single hook & loop strap with speed laces, the TX224 has a speed lace draw-string lace system, which is quick and easy to secure, and wraps the foot neatly in race mode with the added benefit of the Velcro strapping. It gives the athlete a micro-adjustable fit, along with maximum impact protection and durability. It can be easily adjusted prior to the event, so that the shoe slips easily on and can be secured with speed.
