Shoe questions (specifically dhb tri road shoes)

Hi,

I posted this thread in commuting (https://www.bikeforums.net/showthread...1208-Shoe-help) but then I came across triathlon shoes.

From what I have read they are quick drying, usually have holes for drainage, and are ventilated.

Is this the case for most triathlon shoes? The ones I am considering are: https://www.wiggle.co.uk/p/triathlon/...es/5360041923/

or Shimano TR31

I want shoes that I can wear all year round that will dry quickly (so I can get them wet on the way to work and then have them ready for the ride home), allow me to perhaps go sockless in summer, and (with an overshoe and thick socks) be good for winter.

Would these work for my application?

Thanks

Daven

There best without socks too I find. TR31 would be fine too.
