Toe Thingy or Belgian Booties?

[Joffey]

My feet are getting a bit cold on the bike but I don't want full lycra / neoprene shoe covers... what would you reccomend? Toe Thingy or Belgian Booties?

Cheers!

Toe covers are brilliant this time of year and small enough to bung in your jersey pocket if it warms up

I've got toe covers, which work a lot better than you'd think, and oversocks, if that's what you mean. Oversocks keep your shoes clean but they do nothing for keeping my feet warm.

I've got the Mavic toe covers, and although they've got tatty underneath from walking around they still keep toes warm and pretty much dry as needed!

Plus Planet X Merino thinny socks on cooler days

Toe thingys are great for evening rides this time of year - I still need my Northwave boots in the mornings though,but my feet are always cold

I have got Castelli toe thingy covers, a bit dubious about buying as was not convinced they would work, but probably the best £14.00 I have spent on clothing. I have worn them under full overshoes in the winter for added warmth & in the spring when full overshoes are too much & they have been extremely durable despite my first impressions....highly recommend

I use in-shoe footwarmers. http://www.decathlon.co.uk/foot-warmers-5-pairs-id_8310602.html

May work out a bit pricey if used every day for a commute though. But for once a week use in winter and chilly spring days they are very good.

Booties 'cos it's pro and they are Belgian as well and Belgian bike stuff is cool*.
