i have a pair of these (Shimano MT70). i haven't worn them through a winter yet, but they are comfortable, and $75 for a Goretex riding shoe is hard to beat. i have ridden in the rain with them several times, and if you can keep the water from getting in the ankle of the shoe (i.e. have long enough rain pants), your feet stay dry. And if you click through live.com (after setting up a free account, of course), you can get 12% cashback on that. So, $65 is even better. If you haven't used live.com before, it's 100% legit—it's through Microsoft. i'm a mac guy, so saying that sounds weird…but i've gotten over $100 cashback already. Sometimes the cashback gets as high as 35% for some sites.
