What shoe booties do you recommend?

[brownnugen]

I am looking for recommendations to keep my shoes/feet nice and dry. I wear MTB shoes with SPD cleats. I also need to be able to walk in them, as I walk about 1/5 mile from the garage to shower/change in the gym/office. I’ve got almost every other piece of rain/cold weather gear covered except for my feet. Thanks for your advice.

Interesting–I just got a pair of the RXLs (in size XL) and the ankle hole was just right. I never thought of myself as having particularly large ankles.

Quiet, Tim, the human-sized people are talking.

I’ve been using the Pearl Izumi Elite Barrier bootie for the past couple of winters and I’ve been pretty happy with them. The XL size is a snug fit for my 46 shoes, but they’ve kept my feet pretty warm down to about 25°. I still miss my old Performance Booties from before the line was redesigned several years ago.

Yeah, I have a pair of the older Performance booties. Those are my warmest, but pretty scuffed up now from mountain biking.

I use toe clips on my commuter bike. Tennis shoes (not running shoes) plus wool socks have kept my feet warm at 20.
