Flat Cycling Shoes
When it comes to cycling shoes, you typically have a choice between cleated shoes (or clip-ins) versus flat cycling shoes, which have no cleat system. The latter are perfect for riders who prefer to rest their foot on the pedal (or in a shoe ‘cage’) instead of being clipped in. BikeChain offers an excellent range of flat bike shoes, also known as casual cycling shoes, from premium brand Northwave.

Are flat cycling shoes good for flat feet?
The term flat foot cycling shoes might be a little misleading in this instance…! It is not intended to refer to the foot condition but rather the sole’s level and uninterrupted surface.
If you have flat feet, then irrespective of the shoe type, you probably need removable, custom-made insoles. This ensures the shoe is orthopedically suited to your feet and condition. We recommend you consult your podiatrist before making a purchase.
Are flat cycling shoes best for flat pedals?
If you’re using standard flat pedals (i.e., no cleat system), then yes, flat-bottom cycling shoes are best for you. Why? Because flat-bottom cycling shoes don’t feature protrusions (unlike cleated alternatives), meaning a smooth sole will sit nicely atop the pedal.
