Getting a little fed up at having wet, cold feet lately, I know its all part of the fun. But wondered if anybody used overshoes with flat pedal shoes. Thinking it might delay the wet, cold feet a little. Don't know if you can get such a think, as most I have found so far are for cleats. Have seen toe covers, which might be an option.

I use them, but then I use SPDs as well.

They’d still work with flats, but the pedal pins would chew through the fabric quickly I’d think.

That said, they’re cheap enough to run a couple of pairs through a winter, and help prolong the life of whatever shoes/boots you’re using as well.

Have a look at the Endura MT500. They are designed for flats.

Ive decided to just wear some Goretex walking boots.

I’ve spent a lot of time researching this. The Endura MT500 II are out of stock everywhere, but I managed to get a pair. They’re a massive pain in the arse to get on and off, so I went with the Grip Grab covers, and they’re brilliant. They’re cheaper than the Endura, LOADS easier to get on and off, and work well with my five tens. Plus, after a long muddy ride, my shoes stay completely clean, and a quick rinse in a bucket of cold water, and the GG’s are clean again.

Have found some online and in the sale

Which version of grip grabs have you got

Think I might need to see how easy the endura are to get on when they come.
