I’ve got some EPS highs.
Super comfy, super grippy, and super warm. Also good at repelling water. Up until til the point water goes up above about half way. Which is most of the time it’s raining. Then they are as cold and miserable as any other shoe.
It’s so frustrating, all they need is a lace cover and I bet they’d be loads better on the puddle splashes, but they haven’t. I’ve bought some thick Sealskinz to wear underneath, but I haven’t been on a wet ride since so i haven’t had a chance to try them!
Nice and warm though. I suffer from Reynaud’s and combined with some thick socks, they kept my feet warm on a lap of Cannock in sub zero temperatures. Unfortunately, there are some big puddles at the end, so the second lap was misery and i couldn’t feel my feet.
