Compatibility: Designed for use with fixed and floating Shimano SPD-SL shoe plates. Fits over standard SPD-SL cleats to protect the shoe plate area without altering pedal engagement. Key benefits: Protects cleats and shoe plates from wear, dirt and moisture, extending cleat life and reducing replacement frequency. Makes walking in cycling shoes more comfortable and stable by covering sharp cleat edges. Keeps mud and debris out of the cleat recess to maintain reliable pedal engagement and reduce maintenance. Construction and performance: Made from high-quality rubber that is durable, waterproof and non-fading. Practical, easy-care material resists abrasion and holds up to repeated installation and removal. Low-profile design preserves shoe fit and does not interfere with clipping in when removed. Easy to use: Simple to install and remove by hand; snaps onto the shoe plate area for a secure fit. Lightweight and compact for convenient storage when not in use. Typical use scenarios: 1. Wet- or muddy-commute: Slip covers on before walking from bike to office or cafe to keep cleats clean and prevent tracking dirt indoors. 2. Group rides with mixed terrain: Protect cleats during short off-bike sections and prevent mud build-up that can affect clipping in later. 3. Storage and transport: Use covers when packing or storing cycling shoes to avoid scuffs and keep cleat mechanisms free of debris. What you get: a practical, reusable rubber cover that protects Shimano SPD-SL shoe plates, improves on-foot comfort, and reduces maintenance—simple to fit, remove and store.
