FAQ

Are they really waterproof?

• veloToze products are made from a waterproof, flexible material. The Tall Shoe Covers form a seal around your calf to prevent water from entering the shoe cover and the waterproof material keeps water out on the sides
• To ensure water doesn't enter through the cleat holes in the bottom of your shoe, you may need to put a small piece of tape over the vent hole. Here's a video to show you how do to that.

How long do they last?

• veloToze products are designed to be used multiple times, but if you take them on and off carefully and follow the proper care instructions, they can last longer.

Do they breathe?

• veloToze products are made of a waterproof fabric that allows some vapor transfer. As with most waterproof materials, the fabric has mitigated breathing ability, which will result in some heat and sweat build-up inside the shoe cover. The design of the Short Shoe Cover, Toe Cover and Helmet Cover allow moisture to escape more easily.

Will they make my feet hot?

• veloToze shoe covers are designed to be waterproof and wind-proof to keep your feet warm. If the weather is hot or you are riding vigorously, your feet may become hot. If they do, simply remove the shoe cover and store it for your next cold weather ride.

What temperature are they best for? 

• The Tall Shoe Covers are designed for temperatures from around 5C to 16C
• The Short Shoe Covers, Toe Covers and Helmet Cover are designed for temperatures from around 10C to 18C

I’m allergic to latex, can I still use them?

• If you have a latex allergy, you should ask your doctor before using veloToze products.

Do you make a non-latex version?

• We currently do not make a version without latex, but we are always developing new products and may offer one in the future.

Do the shoe covers work for mountain biking or cyclocross? 

• veloToze makes shoe covers for Road Cycling shoes with cleats and MTB/Gravel shoes with cleats. The material on the bottom of the shoe is likely to tear if they are worn for walking or running on rough surfaces and are therefore unlikely to last more than one or two times if used for cyclocross or other activities. Also, because they cover a portion of the bottom of the shoe, they may be slippery when walking or running on muddy surfaces.
