The Crankbrothers Stamp Trail Lace flat pedal MTB shoe has been around for a few years now, but along with the Mallet and Stamp Trail Boa options launched recently and the Mallet Trail Lace (also announced today), it has just been completely revamped. The original Stamp Trail was well regarded by some, while other testers (such as our colleagues at MBR.co.uk) felt the rubber soles weren't grippy enough – grip being a crucial part of whether a flat shoe performs or not.
We've been sent a pair of the new Stamp Trail Lace to test, but given that the current UK trail conditions are very much a sodden mud-fest, we're still very much in winter boot test mode. However, I have been trying out the new shoes on the street and the pump track, so I can pass on my findings so far.
