My 10+ year old Lake MXZ302 gave up the ghost a 2 years ago, and the gortex northwave winter boots I replaced them with are just not warm enough. This is a big and bulky boot, but that is exactly what i was looking for to use on below freezing rides. I ordered 1.5 sizes above my usual to fit with thicker wool socks. My primary use is wet/slush/snow covered roads for winter training.
Pros: in the mid 20s F my feet stayed warm and dry. easy to put on /off and adjust while wearing gloves.
Cons: Same issue as all single boa shoes where you can't dial in a specific fit on different areas of your foot. The upper ankle portion does not have a flap over the tongue, making snow and water ingress possible. if riding in really wet or snowy conditions an ankle gaiter would be beneficial.
Other notes: The sole is thick enough to need to raise your saddle. A pamphlet in the box indicates a cleat shim is necessary for the pedals to engage properly, but i found with my spd M540 pedals i liked the feel of no shim better.
