Yeah, I've seen the boot type of shoes before which always seemed a bit much -- thinking the overshoe insulating booties made more sense for me. OTOH, this kind of regular-looking low-cut road shoe with insulation -- looked interesting if they can let me ride in 30-40 degree weather without further thought (aside from perhaps a pair of merino socks.
Can anyone comment on how Northwave sizing compares to other brands? eg. I'm a 49 in a Giro, Sidi or Mavic (which is about a US 14 on most charts). NW's size chart though has their size 48 as a US14 -- is this correct?
