Back in November, Colorado-based Lems launched their first mountain bike shoe, the Trail Thrasher. Following rave reviews, the shoe promptly sold out in all but the most extreme sizes, leaving buyers frustrated. A representative for the brand told Singletracks: "Demand exceeded expectations and inventory sold through quickly."
Today, Lems is dropping their first restock of the "Moss" colorway shown here. The Trail Thrasher sells for $155 and is available in US sizes 4.5 to 15 for men, and sizes 6 to 12 for women.
### What Makes the Trail Thrasher Stand Out?
After testing the Trail Thrashers over several weeks, I wrote in my review that they're among my top three flat pedal MTB shoes alongside the OG Five Ten Freerider and Shimano GF600. Seven months later, they're still my go-to flat pedal shoe. The wide toe box makes a huge difference—your feet can actually spread out naturally, which reduces fatigue on long rides. Plus, the overall comfort on and off the bike is unmatched.
I suspect a lot of riders are also attracted to the retro-hiking look of the shoe. The Trail Thrasher is constructed with real leather—nubuck and suede—and the Moss colorway looks particularly outdoorsy. It's the kind of shoe you can wear to the trailhead, then grab a coffee after without looking like you just finished a race.

### A Limited-Time Deal for Singletracks Readers
Here's the kicker: Singletracks readers can take 15% off a pair of in-stock Lems Trail Thrasher shoes for a limited time with this exclusive coupon code: singletracks15. That brings the price down to around $131.75—a solid deal for a shoe that's already a steal at $155.
### Why Riders Are Hooked
Let's break down what makes this shoe a top contender:
- **Wide toe box**: Allows your toes to splay naturally, improving balance and comfort.
- **Real leather construction**: Nubuck and suede give it durability and a classic look.
- **Versatile design**: Works great for both riding and casual wear.
- **Proven performance**: Tested and loved by riders for months.
We're stoked to see the Trail Thrasher back in stock. Hopefully, these don't disappear as quickly as the first batch! If you've been waiting for a chance to grab a pair, now's the time.
