FAQs
Are these overshoes waterproof?
Yes, they feature a windproof and water-resistant outer layer designed to protect against rain.
Can I walk in these?
They are designed for cycling. While you can walk short distances, the reinforced areas will wear down faster if used primarily for walking.
How do I clean them?
Use a damp cloth or hand wash with mild soap. Do not machine wash or use harsh detergents.
Will they fit my casual shoes?
Yes, they are designed with a versatile fit to accommodate most types of footwear.
Why are there reinforced sections?
The reinforced toe, heel, and underfoot sections provide extra durability where the overshoe experiences the most friction while pedaling.
Troubleshooting
Overshoe slipping off the heel
Re-adjust the hook and loop tension and ensure the underfoot strap is properly seated.
Water leaking through the top
Ensure your pant legs are pulled over the top of the overshoe cuff to prevent rain runoff from entering.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To put on the overshoes, place your foot inside and align the reinforced sections with your shoe's heel and toe. Adjust the hook and loop straps to ensure a snug fit that does not interfere with your crank arms or chainrings. Regarding care, these overshoes should be hand-washed with mild soap and cold water. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as high heat can damage the reflective print and the integrity of the water-resistant coating. Always air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to preserve the elasticity of the fabric.
