    Hi, was wondering can anyone recommend so good quality overshoes? Brand, price etc & where they can be sourced. Preferably ones with Velcro rather than zips.

    Thanks

    You'll need to be more specific about what you need them for as there are many different types, winter, spring, summer, commuting, racing, etc etc

    They'll be for mostly commuting but is like if they could be waterproof as opposed to being water resistant.
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated thanks

    Sorry, I meant as water resistant as possible. As for zips, they sang & snap whereas Velcro is my friend 😄

    They have a short life anyway, I never get more than one season out of overshoes. The back of the overshoes fold as you cycle and Velcro wouldn't cut it.

    Velcro also snags Lycra and makes a balls of it, literally. Stick with the zips.
