Pros Warm and mostly waterproof
Cons Stitching that holds velcro in place unraveled after two uses and its too large around the ankle so though the covers are snug everywhere else the ankle can't be adjusted for a tighter fit
These covers are cheap and great. They are not 100% water proof, but will keep you dry in light commuter spray. I had the black and foolishly hiked in them, chewing up the toes. So I got a pair of Neon yellow to help with the being seen. Sadly filhty city road spray dimmed the hot yellow pretty quick, but that's no fauly of the product.
This shoe cover fits well and is easy to put on and take off. In addition it is warm and waterproof.
My only issue is the bottom of the toe area. When I stop and put my foot down, my toe hits first and sometimes I stay on that toe causing more wear. The material on the bootie at the bottom of the toe is very thin and not durable. So now I have a pair booties that look new on top but will soon become unusable because the left one is worn out under the toe.
I actually tried wearing some toe cover over these and had some success since the toe covers had a thick rubber bottom.
In spite of all that I bought another pair because of the price and how well they worked before wearing out.
It fits tightly over the shoe and ankle. It worked very well keeping my feet warm and dry on 3 hour winter rides. Velcro is very strong, this will not come lose during a ride.
I ride in Northern California, and when it gets to be in the 40s and 50s, my feet get cold!
Pros
Covers keep my feet warm at 40-55 deg weather
Keeps shoes clean in wet conditions
Seem sturdy after about a month of usage
Clean easily
I like the hi-viz color
Cons
Not breathable, so your feet will sweat and you will get home with shoes that are wet from the inside
Not that warm, so it's not like sitting with your feet by a fireplace - ) At 40 deg, they'll still be cold.
Overall I like them and am satisfeed.
I ride a recumbent. These are a nessassaty.
These. The socks and toe warmers. And I'm good for any weather.
Very In pressed on how Warm my Feet stayed Warmed. Able to ride for a Couple of Hours at 50 degrees.
I have size 42 Sidi wire 4 hole Speedplay road shoes & medium fits perfectly on these. They go on & off fine if you give them a bit of a stretch & line them up with the shoe shape as you pull them on. I haven't used them yet, it'll probably be early spring at this point with the roads being snow covered now & not fit for road biking. Late fall I was riding with just toe covers, & they weren't quite enough. I think these will be fine with ordinary socks because they come well up over the ankle & will come over the bottom of my tights. Well made, good quality, good price.
I use these on the road only, so that may be why I don't have problems with the bottom wearing out like other riders. Unlike so many brands, Louis Garneau seems to fit true to size. I prefer the wide velcro strip on the outside of the ankle - it doesn't chafe the crank arm and works better than a zipper when layering wool socks and tights.
Easy to get on and off. Keeps my feet warm down to about 35 degrees. Seems like it should hold up for many seasons.
I put these over my Keen biking sandals and they worked pretty well but, I only used them once and the straps across the bottom tore.
I like how easy it is to put over my cleats. I was initially concern about standing up to the all walking around I do from the commuter cage to the locker room all the way to by office desk. So far one month hasn't been too bad. I've already assumed I'll buy a new pair annually because shoe covers aren't made for that much walking.
At this price it definitely keeps you warm and dry. What else do you need?
Neo Protect II shoe covers are easy to get into and remove, keeping out wind and cold while preventing hot, sweaty feet during the longest treks. Vertical velcro ankle strips keep the covers snug against the calves and the bottom cut-outs allow any size or shape of cleat to engage with pedals. These covers are dependable for multiple winter seasons of very active riding.
Product is stretch fabrics with overlapped fabric reinforcement for sole openings. The sewing quickly unraveled. If you can sew, reinforce the bottoms when new and you should be able to enjoy the product. Or maybe try fabric glue. Other than the bad stitching, they work fine.
I use this pair when riding mud on the XC MTB. Feet are always dry and shoes look like new after the muddiest of rides.They do get torn up when riding the more aggressive trails, but for this price I just break out a new pair every year. I like the velcro opening over other zipper opening because I kept on breaking the zipper pulls off.
These are warm, easy to put on, and keep my feet plenty warm in weather down to the 30's.
It's not easy to put in.
These shoe covers fit my size 41 shoe quite snugly and keep my feet so much warmer.
They don't allow sweat to escape, so there's a lot of moisture inside after a ride. If you're wearing wool socks that wick and retain heat even when wet, this isn't a problem above about 25 degrees Fahrenheit. I haven't been able to tolerate a windchill much colder than that.
I've been wearing these with my Giro Empire MTB shoes and it's an awesome combination. Warm and weather proof. The LG shoe cover goes on very easily and is very secure. Well made and a great piece of kit. Highly recommend.
Grabbed this on a clearance special because I needed something for cold wet days. The first few weeks were ok. Not as good as some boot covers I have used but they were warm and took the edge off.
About 2 months in they are total garbage. The under-foot straps have totally disintegrated. Useless. Spend the money, buy something substantial.
