The Quoc Pham New Fixed Shoe is a traditional touring style, hand lasted bicycle shoe, with a natural leather upper and rubber sole. The latest iteration of the highly popular Quoc Pham Fixed Shoe, the 'New' model offers a timeless track style design with a slighter wider arc to the lacing area.
The New Fixed is crafted with natural leather upper that offers many advantages of a synthetic construction. Leather breathes, neutralises odours, softens and moulds to fit the wearer. Furthermore, it is warm and wind resistant in cold weather yet cool and absorbent in summer.
Quoc Pham shoes should feel a little tight width-wise on first wear, but rest assured that after a couple of hours the leather will give to ensure a perfect fit. Please click on the sizing link above in order to find your size, and to read more helpful sizing information.

Quoc Pham has always had a passion for both fashion design and sport. After graduating with a BA (Hons) in fashion from London's Central St. Martins, he decided to merge the two. In 2009, Quoc designed his first smart bicycle shoe, combining fashion with an active lifestyle - the eponymous brand was born.
Sleek and elegant, Quoc Pham shoes are made for the urban enthusiast and weekend tourist, hopping on and off, in and out of places. They feel like bicycle shoes but don't necessarily look like them: no chunky soles, no Velcro straps, no inability to walk in them, no extra bright colour combinations. They are perfect to wear at dinner or in the office, yet comfortable as a sports shoe should be.
Each limited edition pair is made using traditional techniques, with craftsman sculpting by hand to ensure they stay true to the contour of the foot. Initial prototypes are made and tested rigorously and once approved, only then can the leather be carefully selected. This must be a 1.3-1.4mm thickness due to the quality and durability required. Additionally, the shoes have to be perfect both for walking and riding, so achieving the right consistency for the rubber sole and correct foot bed curvature was a challenge. In essence, everything is considered, even a lesson on how to lace and knot for the best hold on your feet!

Very comfortable and stylish. Sole firm enough for fast long rides. Have to watch tongue isn't twisted up at edges otherwise all good.
