Ideal for time trials, training, or racing in wet conditions, these shoe covers ensure your feet remain fast and dry.
The PU-coated lycra, which is both windproof and stretchy, is precisely tailored to snugly fit a road shoe. With ultraSonic welded seams and a spray-resistant sole, these overshoes are built for endurance. The external seams are taped for enhanced water resistance. Inside, the lycra is lined with a soft fleece, preventing skin irritation and enhancing insulation.
Our PU material has been specially treated four times to ensure waterproofing while retaining its elasticity. This meticulous process makes it a premium choice, ensuring superior performance. The design is zipless, providing a sleek fit around the shoe.
The silver reflective logo boosts visibility, and the silicone-sealed leg opening makes these overshoes perfect for wet races.
Fitting Instructions:
- Start by wearing your regular cycling socks.
- Slip the shoe cover on like a sock.
- Position your foot through the large cleat hole, then wear your road cycling shoe.
- Pull the shoe cover over the shoe’s heel first, followed by the toe.
- Adjust around the ankle, cleats, and heel pad, ensuring no part of the shoe cover obstructs the cleats or heel pad.
Note: It’s crucial to ensure the shoe cover’s top is against your skin or worn over a sock to prevent water ingress.
Caution: Always fit the shoe cover before wearing your shoe to prevent tearing.
Although designed primarily for road cycling shoes, the stretch material doesn’t constrict your foot. A small tape at the heel facilitates an easy fit. These overshoes are built to be waterproof, but over prolonged exposure, some water may infiltrate through the cleat and heel openings. However, they’ll efficiently block wind, preserving your foot’s warmth.

To maximize lifespan, avoid walking in overshoes. Walking, especially on concrete, can wear them out quickly. When walking is necessary, try to “penguin walk” on your heel and cleat, minimizing toe contact with the ground.

I’ve finally found a combination that keeps my feet dry in very wet weather, which is fantastic. These covers work so well in very wet weather, although the fit around my leg is not quite tight enough to make a waterproof seal. However, I pair these with some GripGrab cuffs to make a fully waterproof solution that works amazingly well.

First impressions are good. Size is as described (L fits nice and snug over Shimano 45). Easy to put on once you follow the instructions. Seem to seal nicely at the lower calf. Just can’t give five stars until I test them in the rain , doubt I’ll have to wait too long.

I am a big fan of Galibier and own plenty of their kit, but these overshoes are a disappointment.
They appear robust and are very easy to put on, but mine has totn at the back after only 5-6 rides. Not cheap so a bit of a shame.

Received these in the post today so haven’t tried them in the rain yet but have tried them on! Shimano size 45. Large fits, but just about. Very tight fit around the shoe which is what you want of course but could possibly be a little bit tighter on the calf. Nicely reinforced around the toe and the heel fits absolutely perfectly around the heel of the shoe. They seem infinitely more robust than Velotoze but don’t have quite the same fit in the leg as Velotoze. Will upgrade to 5 stars if they do a reasonable job of keeping water out the next time I’m out in the rain. Very happy with these overall. They look a quality product, as usual from Galibier.

The best I have used. First time out with these beauties was yesterday, taking full advantage of our North Yorkshire Summer, LOL. Heavy intermittent rain over Buttertubs and beyond at a temp of 14C. 40km ride and my feet stayed dry right until the last couple of km when just a little rain found it’s way into the top of the ankle binding. After many years of wearing shoe covers and paying a lot of money for some, this Galibier product puts them all to shame. They look sooo cool, they are simplicity itself putting on and taking off and the binding around the ankle is designed to perfection. Chapeau once again guys.

Amazing overshoes. My favourite ones. Well worth the money. Large for a 43eur size is a perfect fit.

I’ve been very impressed with these. Snug fit (XL over Giro size 46), secure fastening, they lie flush over laced shoes they keep the water out very effectively. (Vents in soles of shoes are sealed with tape as a first line of defence.) They are easy to clean and dry quickly.

Very easy to use, sleek and functional. Add to that plain and understated design and you have a great product. Tried other market leaders in this department, not a patch on these.
