I wear a size 16 and have not been able to find a good pair of waterproof boots available in my size at any price. Even the $200+ Cruiserworks boots stop at size 15.
I was delighted to find these in the catalogue and ordered a pair immediately. They are just under $80. I have had them for a couple of weeks now and I am very satisfied. They are very heavy duty (made by Bates), and pretty comfortable even though I am just starting to break them in. The waterproofing comes from GoreTex which certifies the quality for any product that uses their material. They even come with a removeable thinsulate booty.
The only issue is that they are very big boots (especially in my size) and you may have to adapt your shifting technique, particularly when they are new and stiff. I tried mine riding for the first time yesterday and was able to work the Nighthawk with the size 16s without too much trouble.
