SPATZWEAR overshoes Windsock 2 Aero | white
The Windsock 2 is a new development that combines the properties of overshoes and coversocks. They offer thin, close-fitting protection against wind and rain and were specially developed for use in road races with the Pro Tour Team Alpecin Deceuninck. Silicone has been incorporated into the fabric to ensure optimum fit and aerodynamics of the upper, while an additional silicone strip on the inside ensures a secure fit on the leg. Minimal stitching and flat placement in strategic areas means aerodynamics are not compromised. A Kevlar layer under the toes gives the overshoes durability, while a robust Velcro fastener behind the cleat not only makes them easier to put on, but also allows the width and therefore the fit of the overshoes to be adjusted.
Spatzwear is the result of countless cold, wet miles in the Yorkshire Dales and the brainchild of Tom Barras, a professional cyclist. After longing for a solution to cold, wet feet while cycling, he developed the first prototypes at the dinner table in 2006. It wasn't until 2016, after a meeting on an icy bike ride with a triathlete in Yorkshire, that the Spatz prototypes were further developed and became a game changer in terms of overshoe systems and functional clothing. Spatzwear: You won't feel that you're wearing it. But you'll be glad you are.
