The Spatzwear Windsock 2 Long Shoe Covers are high-performance aerodynamic oversocks designed for competitive cyclists and time trial enthusiasts seeking marginal gains in speed and stability. These covers offer a professional, UCI-compliant aerodynamic profile that minimizes drag while protecting against road spray and wind; however, the precise, race-fit design requires careful handling to avoid snagging the delicate fabric during application.

The main panel is designed to be water-resistant, providing protection from road spray and light rain, though they are not fully waterproof in heavy downpours.
These are designed for road and time trial use. The technical fabric may be susceptible to tearing if snagged on trail debris, rocks, or branches.
The size S is intended for EU shoe sizes 38-42. Always select based on your primary cycling shoe size to ensure the tight aerodynamic fit.
Yes, the Windsock 2 is designed to meet UCI regulations for professional racing.
The Velcro is integrated into the design for aerodynamics; it is not intended for user replacement. Proper care during installation will extend the life of the closure.
Ensure the silicone grippers are flush against the skin/sock and that the fabric is pulled up sufficiently to create the necessary tension.
Adjust the positioning of the cover to ensure the fabric is stretched evenly around the ankle bone; ensure there is no slack.
Ensure the shoe is fully tensioned and that the cover is pulled forward over the toe before attempting to close the fastener.
To install, place the shoe covers on your feet before putting on your cycling shoes. Once the shoes are on, pull the covers down, aligning the heel pocket, and fasten the Velcro closure behind the cleat. Ensure the covers are pulled tight to remove any folds or wrinkles. For care, hand wash in cool water using a mild, non-abrasive soap. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to preserve the elasticity of the silicone grippers and the integrity of the aerodynamic fabric. Avoid contact with sharp objects, as the specialized technical fabric can snag if handled roughly.
