From Assos:
Tiny but mighty, the second generation of our Spring/Fall Toe Covers deliver targeted wind and watertight protection where your feet need it most.
Description:
When booties are overkill and shoes alone let icy air and water infiltrate your toe box, reach for the Spring/Fall Toe Covers G2. The textile we used is our jacket-proven 3L NEOS Light softshell, which is composed of an ultralight membrane that’s both waterproof and breathable. We then went a step further, taping the seams throughout the covers to ensure that your vulnerable toes remain insulated and protected from ice-cold wind, road spray, and rain as you pedal through harsh weather. The underside of the cover features a reinforced, non-slip material that adds traction and durability, while the internal silicone band keeps the covers securely in place. As with our booties, these feature our raw-cut zeroCuff to create the smoothest transition possible between your shoe and the fabric, furthering the aerodynamic profile.
