Which waterproof overshoes would you recommend for use with clipless pedal shoes? Last Winter I bought some waterproof overshoes on the internet to keep my feet dry on the daily commute. Unfortunately these overshoes fastened with a velcro strap which fastened underneath the shoe obscuring the cleats in both my road shoes (SPD-SL) and mountain bike shoes (SPD). I managed to get by tucking the velcro straps inside the overshoes and wearing them loose, but they have never really stayed secure that way. Can anyone recommend some waterproof overshoes that: * Keep your feet dry * Fit snugly and don't come undone on a ride or catch on the bike * Have fittings which don't obscure cleats and work well with clipless pedals * Are reasonably priced

I used to use the Endura neoprene overshoes commuting through the UK winters. They were very warm and good at keeping out the water, but they were way too fragile. They just about made it through a second winter but had little splits and tears all over them. I reckon they'd be excellent if you were just out for a long ride in the country, but if your commute involves traffic lights where you put your foot, down then sooner or later you'll kick the kerb or the pedal and tear the neoprene.

Although it's not quite what you asked for, my advice would be to splash out on some waterproof shoes. I hunted round for a bargain pair of Specialized Defrosters which are brilliant for winter MTBing and commuting - I probably wear them for half the year now.
