Mtb 500 waterproof overshoes

[gb155]

Has anyone used the above , saw them in evens today and they looked pretty good.

Failing that- can you recommend some good waterproof ones?

BBB's-there was a recent thread about them (was it in Commuting)?

I would second the BBB waterflex (?), nice and lightweight unlike some of the heavy duty neoprene varieties often seen and they definitely keep your feet dry and toasty.

My Endura MTB overshoes lasted 3 rides. Useless.

I'm using these and they are the mutt's nuts. Nice and dry and tougher than I expected.

Im using a pair of the endura mtb 500s, used them quite a lot of late,

this is the only pair of overshoes ive used so i have nothing to compare them too, but i

find them good if a bit difficult to put on at first but once youve got the hang of pulling

them over your shoes there not too bad, and they do keep your feet dry even when its

raining hard I feel they were worth the money.

Though quite how he gets his size 13's in them I don't know

Or these http://www.wiggle.co.uk/gore-bike-wear-city-iv-overshoe-aw10/ - so good ( bought two pair. Decent quality, reinforced edges (though walking in them will eventually wear them out - presumably), velcro-fastening shell overshoe. As waterproof as the hole for your leg will allow them to be .
