Review on Fizik X5 Artica Men's Shoes - Sleek and Stylish in Black by Steve Snyder

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Well constructed, keeps feet completely dry

Really good winter shoes. My usual loop from home in the woods involves several small creek crossings, and there's nothing worse than cold/wet feet. I've been wearing waterproof socks with my standard SIDI MTB shoes for a while, but my feet still get cold when the shoes get wet. With this new shoe NO WET FEET, no cold feet, no shoes that dry every ride. The sole is really durable and has excellent traction. I had a slight irritation on my calf at the toe of a boot related to the zipper but I managed to fix the situation. They appear to be half a size larger than usual, but it helps with thick comfy socks. I recommend.
