Hey Mike, I feel the beauty of the GK's is they allow you to wear whatever shoes your feet like. I pretty much live in Chaco sandals and Simple sneakers and both work just fine with the pedals. My touring partner wears the female version of the Patagonia shoes you're looking at, and she loves 'em.
In a recent Riv Reader, they showed a Grip King hack that involved installing some metal studs in the holes of the platform (much like the pricey Tiogo pedals Riv sells). If I always rode in super wet weather, I might consider doing this to a pair to add a little more traction. Look forward to some pics from your tour, -Jay B.
