    what kind of neoprene shoe cover for sneaker-like SPD touring shoes?

    So many of the shoe covers and made for the road shoe and don't fit well over touring/sneaker type shoes with SPD cleats. Whats a good shoe cover for that type of shoe?

    I got these Louis Garneaus and they fit great over my bulky, sneaker-like Shimano commuter shoes with SPD cleats. I sized UP - got an XL to fit over my size 44 shoes. Works like a champ!

    I've heard good stuff about the XLC's, too. Maybe next year.

    I have the Sugoi Resister Toe Covers. They only come in one size but they fit beautifully over my Vasque hiking shoes that I use with my BMX pedals.

    I have yet have had a chance to USE them but they slip on quite easily and they leave a little room.

    over a pair of Shimano SPD commuting shoes.

    I got my booties at a yard sale for $1. They did have a seam that I had to repair.
    Good things come from yard sales.
