My feet tend to get colder quicker ad more often than my riding buddies. I am always looking for ways to keep my feet warm. I’ll have to check these out some more. Thanks for the write up.

Could have used a pair like those today. As it was 53 deg. when I took off, didn’t bring toe warmers. When I got to the hike-a-bike snow drifts, feet were too cold to take a chance of getting colder. 10 min. later I needed rocket shoes, almost colided with Mr. Bear! When you’re close enough to smell the bear you’re too close.

@spartan, he has small feet, and you know what they say about that …

No submerging yet. They are pretty good at keeping out rain and splashed water, but I wouldn’t hold out much hope for good draining. Shoes good at keeping water out are generally good at keeping water in too.

Have you had the chance to submerge these yet? I’d be curious about how well they drain.I’ve been looking for an everyday/non-race/wet condition shoe since I destroyed my “back-up” pair at the Wausau 2-4 last summer.

In pic 1 we could use a bit more shoe and a bit less of your “junk”..
