Womens Specific MTB Shoe advice

ejsmall

Hi All

I am after women's specific MTB shoes (not SPDs) that must be waterproof. I am finding it very difficult trying to find womens MTB shoes that are great for wet conditions. I don't have a massive budget and ideally don't want to spend anymore than £70 so if there are any products that can be recommended to me, please please please let me know!!

Many thanks!

Hi ecrock,

I used the 5.10 mtb shoe/boot things all through last winter and they were great! Not waterproof completely but after I used walking boot, water repelling treatment on them and with sealskinz winter socks inside my feet were pretty toasty all winter.
Pretty difficult to get waterproof mtb shoes I reckon.. A goretex sock inside will keep your feet as dry as poss though.
Good luck, and let us know if you find anything that works!

The wife is also looking for something more waterproof if there are any other ideas ? :?

I use walking trainers- as I suffer from large feet (size 10) so cant get any women specific fit shoes.
But the trainers are water resistant and have great grip when paired with DMR V12 pedals.

I think its virtually impossible to have a totally waterproof shoe as I tend to get water in the tops!

But the Meindl shoes seem as good as anything I have found, and work even better when I remember to re-proof them!

It's a bit hit and miss but check out tk maxx, I got some berghaus approach shoes, very grippy, warm and water resistant.

I gave up looking for specific women's MTB waterproofs so after a bit of advise I went for a pair of DHBs from Wiggle with a pair of SealSkinz waterproof socks!!
Roll on the winter months!!
