Our take on the Fox Racing Union BOA Clipless Shoes

The Union BOA is Fox Racing's trail and downhill clipless shoe, built around a nylon and rubber chassis with a BOA dial plus lace closure. It pairs an Ortholite insole and EVA foam midsole with a high, weather-resistant shaft, so it feels more like a rugged all-mountain shoe than a race slipper. Riders like the secure fit and walkable rubber outsole; some find it heavy and stiff out of the box. It sits against shoes like the Five Ten Kestrel and Specialized 2FO, trading a little pedaling stiffness for durability and protection.

Questions and answers

Is the Union BOA good for downhill riding?
Yes. The high shaft, reinforced upper and rubber outsole are aimed at downhill and aggressive trail use. It is heavier than cross-country shoes, which suits lift-served and technical riding.
How does it compare with the Five Ten Kestrel?
The Union BOA offers more ankle coverage and a dual BOA-plus-lace closure. The Kestrel is generally lighter and more pedal-focused. Choose the Fox for protection, the Kestrel for weight.
Is it waterproof?
It is water-resistant, not waterproof. The upper sheds mud and light rain, but long wet rides will soak through. It has no Gore-Tex membrane.
What closure system does it use?
A BOA dial tightens the upper, backed by traditional laces. That gives fine adjustment and a backup if the dial fails, at the cost of a slower routine.
Does it fit true to size?
It runs medium width and most riders take their usual size. The snug, high-cut fit means wide feet may want to size up or try before buying.
What is in the box?
The pair of shoes with the Ortholite insoles fitted. Cleats and pedals are not included.
