Fizik's Terra Ergolace GTX series MTB shoes are "guaranteed" to keep your feet dry. I put that lofty claim to the test over a sodden British winter

Launched last fall/autumn, Fizik's press release boldly claimed the Gore-Tex enhanced Terra Ergolace GTX Flat shoes are "guaranteed to keep riders [feet we assume] dry". I've been testing them over a particularly soggy British winter to see if that lofty statement could be true and whether they're some of the best MTB flat pedal shoes for foul-weather riding.
