Does anyone know of any decent overshoes without cleat holes?

I like the sound of the Endura Road overshoe - but it seems sily having holes to let water in when I use toe clips.

It won't let water in unless your shoes have holes in the bottom!

I've seen people using the endura road overshoe with out cleats, and it does work well.
The only problem you will have with any overshoe, is it will clearly wear out a lot quicker due to you walking on it.

I wouldn't use the Endura Road ones with clips - they'll get torn to shreds. You want an overshoe that's not made of a grippy material - maybe the Endura mtb one? In any case I'm not sure the Road ones will fit - what shoes are you using?

Not if you do a little preemptive reinforcement. See VeloWeb's "VeloGarage" page and the article "Put some sole back in your booties."

The toe could be similarly modified to protect from clip abrasion.
