For 2020, Leatt have expanded their product line to include shoes. According to Leatt, their goal has always been to be a complete “head-to-toe” MTB and moto brand so, of course, a shoe fits nicely in that progression. Leatt claim they saw a need for durable and comfortable shoes with superb bike control qualities and they believe their new products will fill that gap. There are both flat and clipless offerings but for the purpose of this review, we’re going to focus on the DBX 3.0 Flat shoe.
The DBX 3.0 Flat is the more performance-oriented of the two flat-soled shoes available from Leatt. The shoe has a synthetic leather upper, toe and heel protection, a waterproof/breathable membrane on the inside, and Leatt’s RideGrip rubber compound.
The shoe uses a lace closure with compression laces that are intended to keep the shoe tight on the rider’s foot more than traditional laces would. It comes in dark green and grey/black color options, US sizes 6-12, and sells for $99 USD.
