You prefer a flat-pedal lifestyle and need special shoes in which styles do not mix. Pearl Izumi X-Alp Launch combines the attractive features of a clipless design , but offers a sole completely platform specific. Durable Cordura upper provides seamless support that holds your feet no matter whether you're riding an enduro class or hanging out at the local diner afterwards. BOA fit system with L6C dial makes mid-trip adjustments easy and reduces snags which may occur when using standard laces.

The heart of the X-Alp is in the midsole and outsole design. Supportive EVA midsole cushions impacts allowing you to maintain control while the nylon shaft and reinforced toe provide increased rigidity and protection. Pearl Izumi partners with Goodyear to equip the X-Alp with a Pin
Loc outsole using premium Goodyear rubber for confident traction and power transfer on and off the pedals.
