DeFeet Slipstream Bootie

No, the Slipstream booties are not waterproof. They are designed to block wind and road spray, making them ideal for cool, dry days or damp conditions, but they will soak through in heavy rain.

The booties feature a knit-in guide on the sole. You simply use a pair of sharp scissors to cut along the designated lines to create an opening that perfectly matches your specific road cycling cleat configuration.

These are designed specifically for the sleek profile of road cycling shoes. They likely will not fit over the bulkier soles and tread patterns found on mountain bike or gravel-specific shoes.

These are lightweight covers intended for three-season use, such as spring and fall. While they provide a good barrier against windchill, they are not insulated enough for freezing temperatures or deep winter conditions.

Because they are made from a durable nylon and lycra blend, they are machine washable. We recommend washing them on a gentle cycle with cold water and letting them air dry to maintain the fabric's elasticity.
