Cold feet and other areas (ooh err!)

Cant go far wrong with these overshoes:

Don't go for these. I ordered a pair by mistake. They are crap compared to their big brother the Endura MT500s which are the biz and a tad more expensive. The MT500s do keep your feet dry even when the rest of you is gettting a soaking plus they keep your toes warm.

I would also recommend Endura's cycling socks both the Coolmax and Thermolite socks - with their Thermolite thicker winter socks it's like walking in cold seaweed unless you wear the Coolmax thinner socks as a liner. I found that the Thermolites on their own didn't actually keep my feet very warm at all but using a thinner cycling summer sock as a liner makes them much warmer and far more comfortable. With the MT500s on top as well your feet are like toast and sealed. Be careful though getting the MT500s on and off over your shoe heals as the zips are vulnerable. The 1st pair I had the left zip broke after about 3 weeks but since replacements have not had any further probs.

I was looking for large, unfortunately I am short and stout and these things seem to be made for the long and thin. I have just brought a pair of Altura winter cruisers, if they prove to be comfortable I might try some summer cruisers instead of the biksters.

Oh I just got a pair of those I got the 2009 version in a sale for £25.00 they are very toasty very comfortable and a bit higher at the back than the bikesters I also will be getting the summer versions.
