You've curious about the return of the lace up shoe for a while now, long enough to realize that what started as a trend looks to have staying power. Whether you remember when lace ups reigned or are considering upgrading to cycling specific shoes for the first time, Louis Garneau's L. A. 84 Shoe is a good place to start if your budget and fit requirements trend more towards self sponsored and generous. Taking inspiration from the lace up models the pros have been wearing, the L. A. 84 offers a similar fit and feel, in a more approachable price range. Built to Garneau's STD Fit standards, the shoe doesn't have the aggressive, highly contoured fit of a top end race shoe. While it still provides security and the nearly limitless potential to adjust fit that comes with a lace up design, the shoe will feel more forgiving for everyday rides. Its fiberglass reinforced nylon soles lend a mix of stiffness and flex appropriate for its entrymid level distinction that will see you loyally through group rides, evening spins, and perhaps your first ever Fondo.
