I have a pair of LG cycling shoe covers that I think I got at Velotique. I tend to wear my sandals, though, with a polypro sock inside a neoprene bootie. I haven't tested this for a long ride as yet. I found my cycling shoes were tight enough that it was difficult to keep me toes warm, although the over booties helped a lot.
