Keeping your feet warm and dry all year round.
The feet, the first to suffer
On a bike, the feet remain almost stationary, exposed to the wind from speed and water spray from the front wheel: they are often the first to get cold. Cycling shoes, very breathable for summer, let in cold air and rain. The shoe cover, worn over the top, extends the season of these shoes and transforms the comfort of autumn and winter rides.
The rest of the range
Bicycle accessories are also available in various forms:
All the accessories are gathered on the accessories page.
Depending on the weather
The thermal models in neoprene, such as the BBB ArcticDuty or the Shimano S-Phyre, insulate from the cold down to temperatures close to zero. The waterproof models, like the Giro Proof, the Agu Reflection or the Sealskinz, block the rain. The Velotoze, made of latex and completely waterproof, can also be worn in summer for aerodynamics. The toe cover, shorter, protects the front of the foot in mid-season.
Visibility and fitting
The reflective elements, like on the Endura Luminite, are particularly effective on the feet: their pedalling motion catches the eye of drivers at night. You choose your size based on your shoe size, and check the opening under the sole for the cleat. You put on the shoe cover before the shoe, then pull it up over the top, and leave it inside out to dry after a wet ride.

Frequently asked questions
At what temperature should you wear shoe covers?
As soon as the thermometer drops below ten degrees, or in rainy weather, the feet get cold quickly on a bike. A thin windproof model is enough for mid-season, while a thick neoprene pair becomes essential in the heart of winter.
Neoprene or latex, which shoe cover should I choose?
Neoprene, like at BBB or Endura, insulates from the cold and protects from showers during long winter rides. The latex of Velotoze, very thin and waterproof, blocks rain and wind, but breathes little and is mainly suitable for short outings.
How do you put on shoe covers?
First, slide them on over the ankle, inside out, before putting on the shoe, then roll them down over the shoe once on. The closure goes at the back, and the sole opening fits around the cleat and heel.
Are road shoe covers suitable for mountain biking?
Not really: road models only allow the cleat to pass through and wear out quickly when walking on the ground. For mountain biking, choose a model with a reinforced sole, shaped for cleats, or high winter shoes.
Do shoe covers improve visibility when cycling?
Yes, fluorescent or reflective models, like the Endura Luminite, signal the movement of the feet, which drivers can spot very well at night thanks to pedalling. It's a real plus for winter journeys.
