The seller who offers these overshoes specializes in gear for horse-riding but I haven't been near a horse since Girl Scouts and these galoshes are very handy for the frequent Seattle drizzle. They fit over most of my flat shoes, have enough traction for walking on wet sidewalks and pavement, and are thin enough that I can drive safely with them on. I know galoshes like this aren't a fashion statement but dry feet are worth it.

My only complaint is that this sandal style leaves shoelaces exposed so in heavier rain it's likely that I would still end up with some water in my shoes. In retrospect, one of the high-top styles like [...] would probably be even more practical. (The catalog that the seller included in the box showed other styles but it seems like only other sellers offer those styles on Amazon.) 4 stars

I purchased the ladies' Tingley Overshoes for a trip to London. They are a fairly hard-to-find item - it may be that only Tingley makes them. They cover the shoes to a high enough level to protect them from all by the deepest puddles. My only difficulty with them was that they won't fit over thick shoes, like athletic shoes (I take an 8 and purchased the overshoes in Medium, 6.5 - 8, because Large would have been 8.5 - 10 and I was sure those would have been too big). Getting them on even ordinary leather flats is a lot of work, but worth it. It may be that they will eventually stretch out some with use. 4 stars
