Review on ๐Ÿ‘Ÿ Pearl Izumi Pro Barrier waterproof Shoe Cover by Michael Foster

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not waterproof at all

I've had these supposedly waterproof ankle boots for over a year now and really wanted to like them. Unfortunately, they are hardly functional - in light rain quickly (<10 minutes) they are sufficient. Everything else and your feet will get wet. In moderate rain they offer at least limited protection compared to nothing, but if you're on the bike for more than 30 minutes it doesn't matter. In the rain - forget it. I'm lucky and only have a 10 minute bike ride to work so I kept them as they're better than nothing most of the time. But they are NOT waterproof and barely waterproof. Funny that Pearl Izumi advertises her like that.

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • Damaged
