Has anyone used the Diadora artic road boots, can't find any users reviews on them. The Northwave and Shimano ones are also around the £100 mark. Is it worth the money or would I just be better off sticking with overshoes. I intend to commute/ride/train throughout the winter, so am considering all options.

I use the shimano ones with overshoes. Never had cold feet with them. Going by description only, both the Northwaves and the Diadoras look as if they have more insulation than the shimanos0

I have a pair of simano gore-tex boots that I use to commute with. Used them all last winter-my feet stayed dry and were never cold-one of the best bits of kit I have bought, just a shame they only take spd plates and not look types. Have'nt used any other brands so can't comment on them, but I would certainly recommend the shimano boots.0

I bought the Diadora chili extreme road boots a couple of years ago and they've been brilliant for 350. You can still get them if you hunt around, they are discontinued now.0
