    For sale are a pair of Biemme A-TEX overshoes, these have never been worn as they are to small. Size : 42-43 (will not fit my shimano spd shoes size 42) so i presume 39-40 would fit best. Note these are NOT waterproof they are windproof

    Taken from the label:
    Biemme A-TEX® overshoes contain an innovative high-tech material produced by interposing a windbreak micro-porous membrane between two layers of fabric. The resultant material is highly protective against the chilling effects of wind.

    Price €10

    Have you tried to squeeze them on? I know this sounds like a silly question but all my over shoes are sized smaller than my shoes but if you force them on, go for a cycle, they (all mine have) will stretch to the size of the shoe.
    Just thought I'd say it...

    Where did you get them?

    I have been looking for galoshes but nobody in Dublin seems to stock them. But they need to be waterproof.

    Some good shoe repairers have gadgets which will stretch shoes. You have to leave them in for a couple of days and they need to be leather.

    @thebouldwhacker - I have tryed but don't want to rip them. I have these a year now, thought I had sold them but just found them while doing a quick clean out of my room. I don't go on the road to often as I prefer mountain biking so i dont feel I would get the use out of them anyway. Thanks

    @Condatis - I got these off another boardsie about a year ago, not sure where he got he got them, sorry. I do believe i saw waterproof overshoes in cycleogical a while back, I use seal-skin socks (waterproof socks) for mountain biking and would swear by them, although your feet can get quiet sweaty in them, the greatoutdoors stock them. Hope this helps
