I've happily been using Pearl Izumi Barrier GTX as my winter shoes for years;
Thinsulate for warmth, and Goretex for waterproofing.
I use the same thin socks I wear in the summer.
I think they are out of production now, but here is a list I compiled some time back of various winter shoes:

45nrth Wolvhammer
Exustar E-SM450
Gaerne Akira (Road) waterproof
Gaerne Artix (MTB) - Same upper as Akira but with MTB sole.
Gaerne Polar (Road and MTB) - not waterproof
Lake MXZ3
Louis Garneau 0
Northwave Avalanche Pro
Northwave Celsius J GTX
Northwave Fahrenheit (road)
Shimano MW02
Shimano SH-MW80
Sidi Diablo GTX
Specialized Defroster
