GripGrab RaceThermo

After a wet bike ride, you will not only have drenching feet, with the reflectors on the back you will also be highly visible in the dark. And they stand out nicely in this colour. Fits well with my Cube Attain, too.

Pros & Cons

Meets expectations

Pros & Cons

Nice overshoes, are warm. Pay attention to size if using wide shoes.

Pros & Cons

The fit is just right. They insulate fine, my feet are warm again. Very pleased with the short nose. The overhang at the bottom now does not get in the way of pedal and cleat. Putting them on and off is a bit more effort because of the lack of the zip.

Pros & Cons

Zipless but therefore not necessarily convenient. Chose these because they were also suitable for mtb shoes but that's only just possible, while size wide bought. Warmth is also a bit disappointing.

Pros & Cons

Shoes are size 43 - overshoes ordered for size 42/43. Yet these are too big and come off while cycling. Unable to return because I no longer had the original packaging(a plastic film)...

Pros & Cons

Good overshoes. They fit nicely, but as a result you have to take your time putting them on. On the 2nd time, it was already smoother.

Pros & Cons

This is the third pair I've bought, and they're just as sturdy as the previous ones. They're easier to put on and don't have a zip, which is usually the weak point of this type of equipment.

Pros & Cons

These overshoes are nice. Easy to put on and keep your feet dry, warm and clean.

Pros & Cons

Deliberately chose GripGrab because of its good quality, Unfortunately I can't say the same for these overshoes, seams in the heel let go after only three weeks. Pity, especially considering the price. Going to ask Mantel to send me new ones.

After the second montainbike ride, fluo has already been removed at the level of the ankle due to friction. Velcro under the shoe comes off easily.

Pros & Cons

Overshoes put on neatly 'inside out' each time and then slid over the shoe. But within 10 uses, the stitched seams are loose on both shoes and 1 has now torn. A waste of (too much) money.

Pros & Cons

Good overshoes, tight fit. It takes some getting used to when putting them on. Still had cold toes, but that is a matter of taping ventilation holes under the shoe. I bought size L and it fits nicely over my 43 1/3 mavic shoe. Ankles wonderfully warm. Velcro under the shoe is quality!

Pros & Cons

Tested on a few wet and muddy rides, I like them! Used over my race and mountain bike shoes (Shimano's). They are warm enough for me at 0-5 degrees, and keep out a lot of moisture. Not yet had any problems with wet feet due to sweat. Putting them on is also easy.

Pros & Cons

I know - the controversy - I want it windproof, but breathable at the same time. And yet there are products that can offer just that. Windproof from the front, protecting you from very rapid heat loss. And breathable from behind so the steam coming off you while cycling can escape. Not this overshoe. All the steam stays trapped inside... I can feel my socks (feet) getting wet from my sweat. Really unpleasant feeling. Fabric used to make overshoes feels like thick rubber. After riding, I take off overshoes and everything inside is damp. I would advise against these overshoes in low temperatures (0~5) because it is counterproductive - your foot gets damp and hence you get more cold feet. And at higher temperatures they are completely unusable.... In short, I will not use them again. A fat mis-buy from me. My search for windproof yet "breathable" overshoes (in yellow, "hiviz", colour) continues. Oh yes..and because they are made of quite thick rubber they keep rubbing against krank. Because of this if I were to keep using these they will wear out quickly.

Pros & Cons

Well-fitting overshoe that is also quite easy to put on. No fiddling with zips.

Pros & Cons

At about 1-2 degrees and a 2h ride, the overshoes were really good.

Sits perfectly around the shoe. Stays well in place. No irritation at all. Some figuring out how best to put it on, though. Just put it on inside out like a sock and then turn it back. Nice and warm (tested at 2°C). Waterproof (tested in light rain). Easy to clean. In short: very satisfied.

Pros & Cons

Warm and good fit. A little tight for those with a high instep

Pros & Cons

These overshoes fit very nicely on the shoe and also fit very nicely around the ankle. In really cold and dry weather, they work quite well, keeping feet warm. The downside is that they are not breathable, so at temperatures around 10 degrees Celsius your feet still get wet. These overshoes are definitely NOT waterproof, several times I rode in rain and came home with soaking wet shoes and feet.

Pros & Cons

Nice and thick material, keeps feet nice and warm during a cold cycle. I couldn’t be happier as I finally come back from cycles with warm feet.

Pros & Cons

Easy to put on (even for wider calves) and wonderfully warm!
