2mm Overshoes RoadR 500

Overshoes specifically designed for road cycling in temperatures between 3 °C and 10 °C.2mm neoprene design to keep you warm and dry, these overshoes have no zip to ensure maximum comfort. Read the instructions on how to put them on!

WHY NOT JUST ADD A ZIP?

The weak link in overshoes, whether it comes to waterproofness or durability, is usually the zip. The zip is usually the most fragile part and the one that will fail first due to the amount of pressure at the heel.

HOW TO PUT IT ON

Here’s how to put it on without a zip. STEP 1: pull the overshoe on and up over the calf; STEP 2: put your shoe on. STEP 3: pull the overshoe back down over the shoe.

WHICH SIZE?

This product is designed to be used with road cycling shoes, which tend to be narrow. If your shoes are wider than average, then buy one size larger.

WATER ENTRY THROUGH CAPILLARY ACTION

If your tights aren’t water repellent, they’re highly likely to soak up rain. Even the best overshoes in the world wouldn’t help: if your tights are in contact with your socks, they’ll absorb water through the capillary effect.
This is why Van Rysel only creates winter tights with a water-repellent membrane, such as the Racer long tights.
