I used to wear an old pair of walking boots before committing to a set of Freeriders. I never had any bother with cold, wet feet but eventually the soles gave up and the grip wasn't amazing. I looked into the other products from Fiveten as my feet get painfully cold in Freeriders and they do an approach boot called the Guide Tennie. They also do a Gore-tex version. It has a stealth sole too. The main problem I find with cold feet when riding is the water that gets in. It doesn't matter if what you're wearing is waterproof as the splashes run down your legs and straight in your shoes so there needs to be a good way of closing the shoe or boot around the ankle/leg, then add the gore-tex or whatever membrane and insulation. I contacted Fiveten to ask if they'd develop something based on the Guide Tennie for MTB and they replied saying they were bringing these EPS Freeriders out, but I knew straight away they wouldn't do the job.
