If asked why they did this, they would answer "It’s warmer, more aerodynamic, keeps my shoes cleaner and looks better". Of course, one could argue that putting cotton socks over cycling shoes makes none of those possible. DeFeet crafted a solution that keeps windchill off the feet, creates smoother lines, keeps dirt out, looks better, and ultimately makes riders faster. Slipstream’s™ also last much longer than a pair of socks while barely costing more. Pay homage to the classic era of cycling, wear Slipstreams™ and go faster. PLEASE NOTE - A small hole is required to be cut for your shoe cleat - NOT waterproof, these overshoes are designed to reduce windchill - Low temperature wash only - Not suitable for tumble dryer use - This item comes as a pair
