Hi there - I'm thinking about getting some Lake shoes. I was particularly interested in the MX265s (as they're only $170 - more than a hundred cheaper than their other mountain winter shoes) - but searching the forums didn't bring up anything.

What do you all think of Lake shoes? I currently have Shimano mountain shoes and, with proper clothing elsewhere, they're good for me to about 15 F or so, but beyond that I'm really pushing it with them.

Also - how would these handle being wet? My Shimanos soak up water like it's their job - and take forever to dry.
