I have moderate Raynauds, which makes winter riding difficult. I've tried all the tips for people like me, and finally ordered these boots two winters ago. They help for temps in the low 40sF, but below that, or even for long rides in low 40s, my toes still become painful and white (going through all the colors with rewarming...). At very low temps, I add battery powered heated socks. The battery packs are annoying, but so is not riding :-)
I will say that the boots are quite comfortable and have held up well.
I'll also add that Pearl Izumi's lobster gloves are the best that I've found for my Raynauds fingers. A little awkward with Di2, but they do work.
Long been a fan of both Fizik road, and MTB shoes. Found the Ferox to be very suitable for both long gravel, and XC rides. The shoe is stiff, and been able to handle the most technical climbs without slippage, and no foot "fatigue". Easy to get off the bike, and have enough tread to walk around. The shoe is suitable for all-season, enough breathability to keep the feet cool in the Summer, and enough space to handle wearing a heavier sock in the cooler months.
Liked the first pair I purchased so much, I bought a second backup pair.
These are my favorite bibtights I've had in a long time. The pad is super comfortable, the inseam length is perfect. They are very warm, so personally wouldn't wear them above 55 degrees or so. The DWR coating is a super nice touch for the PNW wet, as is the extra layer of insulation over the crotch for super windy days.
My only complaint is that the bib straps are a little bit long. I'm 5'8" and got the small, and when I bend over they become slightly loose. Not a deal-breaker by any means, and I'm shortish anyways so am used to sizing being challenging.
10/10 recommend.
I found the bibshorts to be comfortable and a large fit well on my 5'10", 195 lb body. The straps seem to be a bit wider and feel good on the shoulders. I do find the legs a bit tight and felt some tightness across the abdomen when I first put them on. I typically order 33" waist on my shorts which fits a bit loose but feels better on the thighs if that helps anyone. Most rides are in Florida and I did not find these bibshorts too warm for 30 to 60 mile rides. Overall, a good buy, especially on sale.
