Why We Like The Fizik Tempo Artica GTX Shoe
While our competition is on the couch hiding from winter, we keep riding outside with the fizik R5 Artica GTX Shoe. Built for superior weather protection, this winter shoe features a durable polyurethane upper and lightweight GORE-TEX Koala membrane to keep your feet warm and dry when conditions are cold and wet. The moderately-stiff R5 nylon outsole makes for efficient pedal strokes, while its L6 BOA® dial fit system and a hook-and-loop strap ensure a secure fit.

I love these boots. I live in Olympia WA, so I ride in the rain a lot. I finally bought myself a pair of these, and oh! what a difference. A couple of things: - They do not seem to me to be much warmer than my summer shoes and a booty. What they are is totally dry. I am absolutely positive that I could stand in 3" of water for an hour without getting so much as damp. - They are road shoes: They don't have any tread and the sole is quite stiff. I stick to roads and don't dismount much, myself, so I can't say for sure. I bet, though, they wouldn't be great in the mud. - My summer shoes are 42s. I bought these in 43.5 to leave room for socks. The fit is slightly looser than the summer shoes, which is perfect for improved winter circulation. Sick of coming home with cold wet toes. Do yourself a favor!

Great winter shoes, but run small

I bought these for my partner and he loves them for riding in 38-45 degree weather(s). They tend to run small compared to other Fizik shoes, size up at least a half size.. especially considering that winter socks are generally a tad bit thicker.
