  1. I like wearing Tivas (they're like sandals) when walking, but I'm afraid to wear them while riding. God forbid, if I should ever fall, they'd offer no protection. So, I ride with boots and change into sandals when I get places. But, do you think I could wear sandals and then an overboot? How much pavement protection do you think they'd provide, if they ever had to?

  2. I'm interested in the overshoes for work as I'm a truck driver and I also ride. Winter can be very brutal. I want pricing on different overshoes as they do not that have on their Web site.

  3. Where can I find the Hair Armor. I went to their Web site but there is no way to order, only dealer info.

    1. The article lists a phone number to call, and on the Web site, you can email them to order or for more information.

  4. I was wery Interested in the Protect Your Feet & Bike items. I don't need them right now, but possibly in the future. I will share this info with others. Thanks for the write-ups.
