If they get so wet in only a 15 minute ride, there is no way that is going to cut it for my 45 minute commute to work.
Any ideas? Any better products? I'm thinking of returning the covers and just getting some waterproof socks. I did some searches and that is most peoples solution is to wear sandals. Sorry, not a sandal guy, so that is out.
Thanks in advance,

ditch the covers, ditch the socks and buy Shimano winter boots. Did it last year and never looked back. OK cost money but they will last 4/5 years I reckon and will pay back in spades. I too have a 45 mins cycle to work. I put a nice pair of merino wool socks underneath, results nice wamr dry feet. No slobbering with shoes covers - one less thing to look out for
