Thanks for chiming in on the Mid Pros, I'm definitely keen to try them out.
I use a shoe dryer (so worth it for anyone that lives in a wet climate) but if you're on a road trip or bike packing, you may not have that luxury, so a faster drying shoe is for sure a benefit. I run clipless sometimes, too, and have several wet weather faves (Shimano MW7 and 5, Northwave Raptor GTX) but often we ride in a mix of mud and snow and in those conditions, flats are preferable for several reasons. I'm sure that now that the pants are everywhere, weather-proofed flat shoes are next. And by 'sure' I just mean 'hope'.
