Ok, my wet weather gear is nearly complete. the one thing i need now is booties / shoe covers. I am looking for a pair that is totally waterproof, and compatable with my mountain bike style shimano clipless pedals. I live in a warm climate, so i have absolutely no intrest in the "warmth" factor. the only reason i will use them is when it is time for work, or time to come home, and it pooring outside... I can't stand it when my shoes get soaked, because even if I assist in the drying, it still takes a day or two to totally dry out, and once they are dry, they stink like poo. is there a particular bootie that i should look at? is there a material or type that would better suite my needs?

the ones i am looking at right now are
http://www.nashbar.com/profile.cfm?c...eid=&pagename= and http://www.nashbar.com/profile.cfm?c...eid=&pagename= and http://www.nashbar.com/profile.cfm?c...eid=&pagename=
has anyone had experience with any of these? I am in no way trying to spam nashbar (i haven't even ordered from them before) they just seem to have a decent selection.

thanks for any info you can give.
