I want to purchase some new Waterproof overshoes if they exist.
This will be my 3rd attempt as none I have bought so far have worked.
Anyone got any advice on what to buy ?

    BBB do a good range. But don't forget that the water gets in at the top and goes down your leg into the shoe. The best overshoes can keep water out on the surface for quite a whil, but can't stop it coming thro' the big hole at the top

    I find the thick neoprene ones good. They don't keep your feet dry but do keep them warm.

    I've got an Altura pair lying at home, no idea how good they are? I've never used them as on really wet days I've used the waterproof socks instead.

    I'd go with Aidocp who suggests the water proof sock as an alternative. I've got two pairs of Seal Skinz™ and they haven't failed me yet. Used with tatty cycling shoes they are a winning combination.

    What do I ride? Now that's an Enigma!
