Hello All,
Two years ago, I was touring across Virginia and it rained--for days--literally. The air temperature wasn't freezing, but it was indeed cold, and thus my shoes, socks, and feet became soaking wet and cold. I dealt with it, generally, not a really big deal, until one day it seemed that my cold feet contributed to lowering my core body temperature.
I've been shopping for a shoe cover that might help me out. One I'm considering is Pearl Izumi's Amfib Shoe Cover for about $45-50. Fleece lined, waterproof. Has anyone used these covers? Good points and bad points? Are they possibly too hot unless it's very cold outside? Please let me know if you have other recommendations, suggestions, etc.. I may do the TransAm this year, which of course includes going over the Rockies, and I want to be prepared. No doubt keeping my feet dry completely is probably impossible, but any improvement would be great.
Thanks!
