Found a Bargain? Do Tell.

i tried them and due to my wide feet i would need to go 2 sizes up so the length was too long for me , i have yet to find good fitting boots .

The Shimano boots I've found to be very accommodating in the foot dept, more then normal Shimano shoes, perhaps @fossyant finds the same.

+1 for Shimano boots. I found the dial on Lake ones to fail quickly and Northwave's too narrow.

Just to break the Shimano love, I have a pair of the previous version of teh carnac / planet x winter boots and they are excellent. go up 1 size from normal shoes / trainers though.

Same. Newer shoes, eg XC3 are narrow but the boots are fine. I don't wear thick socks with them as no need.

Yes - go up one size in PX winter boots. There is a lining inside the boot that takes up a bit of space.
Great boots though. Much better than wrangling with overshoes.

Wow that's good for winter boots!

If I brought a pair it would be the end of winter!🤣

It was about 2 degrees on Sunday. 13 degrees on Thursday apparently !

I've got the both old and new versions of the PX boots and have found the newer ones to be quite a bit smaller than the older 'Das Boot' version. I'm a wide-ish size 46 and the old Das Boot in a size 47 had quite a bit of room in the toe box, I could wear them with two pairs of socks if needed. However the new version in a 47 is a rather 'snug' fit, TBH they're a bit of a struggle to get on (they haven't got a pull loop at the ankle which doesn't help), but that said once on they don't move around as much as the older version and are still comfortable after a 4 or 5 hour ride. They don't rub the crank arms either which is nice bonus!

I have both those issues with Das Boot - not easy to get the "laces" up tight enough, and crank rub.
