Product Features and Maintenance
Are the shoes water resistant?
The CHPT3 Transit shoes feature an upper made of premium natural leather. While leather
does have a degree of natural water resistance, it is not waterproof.
Therefore, it is important to take note that prolonged exposure to water or heavy rain may
cause damage to the shoes. However, in case of light rain or small amounts of water, the
shoes can handle it well. To help protect the shoes from water damage, we recommend using a
water-repellent spray and avoiding prolonged exposure to water.
Are there any special features or technologies used in the shoe design?
The CHPT3 Transit shoe is based on an entirely new plate technology THE O.W.N Microplate
is
a revolutionary new plate technology to give the rider SPD compatibility and force
transfer
to the pedal without the stiffness of a normal plate. The O.W.N Microplate is completely
concealed under the midsole.
Almost all urban cycling shoes use a full plate to give the rider stiffness and the option
to clip into the pedals. This makes urban cycling shoes perform on the bike, but makes them
impossible to walk in and wear all day. CHPT3 Transit is designed with a plate that gives
you performance benefits of a cycling shoe and the comfort of a luxury sneaker.
The SPD cleat is hidden in the midsole which makes it noiseless. You can wear the shoe all
day without noticing you are actually wearing a cycling shoe.
Can I use the CHPT3 Transit shoe for gravel?
You can use the shoe for gravel riding, particularly rides where you also want to do other things like go to a restaurant, go for a walk, visit a site or other purposes where you plan to be off the bike as well as on the bike. Bear in mind the CHPT3 Transit Shoe is not designed to be a pure performance shoe. If you want to go on a gravel ride to go fast then we advise you to use a normal gravel cycling shoe.
Can I wear the shoe all day?
The CHPT3 Transit shoe is designed to wear all day on and off the bike.
Wear it on the road,
to the office, the café, the club – you can ride, walk, jump, and dance everywhere. Flat
pedal or SPD compatible, a flexible sole, sneaker comfort, and a high traction outsole to
use as a third brake.
Does the flat pedal version have any specific benefits for cycling?
Even though you can use the flat pedal version as a premium sneaker you wear all day it
is actually designed specifically for urban cycling.
It comes with a reinforced outsole optimised to integrate with various pedals and durability
on the street. It has a high traction outsole designed to work as a “third brake” for tricks
and stops. It has a midsole design with a 10 mm drop to give you a perfect position on the
bike.
Does the shoe come with cleats and pedals?
The CHPT3 Transit shoes come with a built-in cleat plate for mounting a SPD cleat. You will need to buy a cleat and an SPD pedal to get the full advantage of the shoes, the same way you need to when you buy a normal cycling shoe.
Is the shoe compatible with other pedals than SPD?
The shoe comes with a built-in plate that is compatible for SPD pedals.
If your cleat system fits a SPD plat then you should be able to use that system too. Check
with your local bike dealer what pedal systems will work with a SPD plate.
How do I care for and maintain the shoes?
The upper of the shoe are made of premium leather. To help protect the shoes from water
damage, we recommend using a water-repellent spray and avoiding prolonged exposure to
water.
To take care for and maintain your shoes , you can follow these steps:
Clean the leather surface regularly with a damp cloth or soft brush to remove dirt and
grime.
Avoid getting the leather wet and let it dry naturally if it does get wet.
Use a waterproofing spray or wax to protect the leather from water damage.
Store the sneakers in a cool, dry place to prevent the leather from drying out and
cracking.
If your shoes get dirty, use a mild leather cleaner.
Design and sustainability
Who designed the shoes?
The CHPT3 Transit shoes are designed by James Carnes, former global creative director at
Adidas.
James used his +20 years of experience of designing athletic shoes and sports inspired
sneakers to rethink urban cycling shoes. The CHPT3 Transit shoes are designed and produced
by his athletic footwear brand Priority Athletic as a collaboration with CHPT3. James is
also a co-owner of CHPT3.
Who is Priority Athletic?
The CHPT3 Transit shoe is marketed in collaboration with the athletic footwear brand
Priority Athletic.
The brand is co-founded by James Carnes and Mikkel B. Rasmussen who both are partners in
CHPT3. Priority Athletic is a new athletic footwear brand that designs and makes premium
athletic footwear for people that want to live an athletic life and put themselves as a
priority. The CHPT3 Transit shoe is the first launch of the brand. Priority Athletic plans
to launch a luxury running shoe called Supernatural in the autumn 2023.

Are the shoes made ethically?
At CHPT3, we are committed to making our products as sustainable as possible while
maintaining high performance standards.
Our CHPT3 Transit shoes are manufactured in Germany with our manufacturing partner Footwear
Innovation Lab, which adheres to strict German labor laws and has a strong commitment to
ethical practices.
The midsole is made with PU that is high performance but not yet sustainable. We considered
using a biobased PU, but the testing revealed that biobased PU did not yet match our
standards for a high performance shoe. We are looking for a more sustainable solution for
the coming versions of the Transit shoe.
The upper is made of premium leather, which comes as a byproduct of farming. The leather we
use is chrome free.
