Don't get caught out again and protect your investment in your riding enjoyment with an insulated weather-resistant shoe cover. With a blend of neoprene and Gore-Tex Infinium fabric to ensure a perfect and insulated fit, the chances your toes being a weak-link on your next winter ride are slim.Castelli utilizes a tall shaft height to gain a more appropriate fit at the calf and a hook-and-loop strap underfoot to fit the cover to your shoe more securely.

Off the bike, the durable lower paneling resists abrasions to extend the lifespan.
