After some overshoes to use on the gravel bike in this wet weather. I'm using flats, not SPD 's. Any recommendations please?

I use Galibier Artic 3 , nice rubber toe cup to keep the cold out.

these are for flat shoes rather than clipless. Not tried them myself as ride clipless. I find shoe covers wear out and get mucky so I tend to buy something that will last a winter. I’m considering winter riding boots though as covers a re a bit of a pita to get on etc.

Another vote for Galibier.  My son uses the Artic 3, although I have the lighter aero/3 seasons road option which doesn’t seem to be on the site anymore and they suffice with a pair of decent socks..

Endura and Planet X of any thickness seems not to have lasted very long for me before falling apart.

I have had many pairs over the years and the only ones that have lasted are some old Planet X neoprene overshoes, not the prettiest, but solid. I'm not sure if they are the same now or if they are available to buy.

My last pair of Planet X ones are nearly shot, nice and roomy with Velcro fastening right down the back. Don’t think they are available now so PLEASE bring them back Planet X

When winter sets in, I swap my spds for flats on my bridleway/ gravel bashing hardtail and wear my 5 ten goretex boots. A bit spendy if you have no other use for them but I always use flats on the big bike so get a lot of use out of them.
