Pearson x Lake: Tearaway Cycling Shoes/Born Unslippy® Pedalset

In an exciting new collaboration with cycling shoe specialists Lake, Pearson is proud to announce the Pearson + Lake Tearaway Cycling Shoe. Designed for life on and off and on the bike, they’re the perfect choice for anyone tired of click-clacking around in cleats.

Grafted to a luxury Lake sneaker-trainer, the Tearaways feature proprietary RUG® technology. The acronym stands for ‘Road, Urban, Gravel’ because this really is the only cycling shoe you’ll ever need.

Pearson tearaways cycle shoe and pedal system RUG technology
The secret lies in the sole (a bit like life), which features a Vibram base for exceptional stiffness and durability. This has been overlaid with our ground-breaking slip-free Velcro, to offer class-leading pedal adherence. The shoe is supplied with corresponding, complimentary pedals, and which, again, boast technology developed exclusively by Pearson. (And Lake, obviously.)

The Born Unslippy® pedals are designed to work only with the Tearaway shoe. It actively knows when to release the shoe (a bit like memory foam in premium mattresses), so you’ll never be caught out at traffic lights.

The Pearson + Lake Tearaways have been rigorously tested in a wide range of riding conditions. With a release so effortless, they had us singing their praises to Pearson customers in-store, many of whom are dedicated ‘cleat-heads’. You might even say the Tearaways put the ‘verse’ into versatile.
