Hi Guys,
Does anybody know where I can get water proof flat soled cycling shoes? I have Fivetens at the moment but when it rains they just soak up the water like sponges! Any help would be great.
Cheers
PS I don't want overshoes either!!!!!!

I just got some Seal Skinz water proof socks from wiggle. One of the best £20 I spent on bike stuff.0

TBH, I think that waterproof footwear is overrated. Unless you wear long waterproof tousers then water gets in over the top of the shoe, boot or sock anyway after a bit, and then you are just riding around in a puddle all day.
I've had 3 pairs of waterproof boots, none of them stop you getting wet feet UNLESS you wear the trousers. the boots I've got are all SPD tho' so if you want something similar, I'd be looking at a lightweight goretex walking boot.0 -

Seconded. The mid-lights are probably the best but they are a bit bulky. Best purchase of 2007 for me!0 -
Echo on the waterproof socks, I use them when wearing Vans and my feet stay completely dry!0
