Shimano RW5 - Dry Shield Winter Cycling Road Shoes,

Anyone own/had any experience with these at all? Trying to decide on purchase of these, after some thoughts of owners if possible please.

Ta..

    No one?

    Seems these maybe new to market, no reviews out there at the moment...

    Also interested in these. They look pretty good, my only concern is the lack of Gore-Tex. They use Shimano's own Dryshield fabric. The MTB equivalent has two versions - MW5 and MW7. MW7 is £20 more and has Gore-Tex rather than Dryshield.

    Wondering whether to just spend £20 more and but Northwave Fahrenheit 2 GTXs.

    I've a pair of Shimano MW81 (older model) MTB Gore Tex boots and they've been fantastic at keeping my feet warm and mostly dry for the last 3 years. Doesn't matter what shoes/boots you go for none of them can keep the water from running down your leg and into the shoe/boot but they will keep your feet warm even though they are wet/damp inside
