Prior to our vacation expedition to Olympic National Park last October, I decided I'd better get some overshoes. Bad enough that the wife was expecting me to go slogging through the Ho Rainforest, I figured my spiffy walking sneaks with the bright red laces would need protection. By definition, rainforests are sodden and sloppy places with lots of puddles.

I surmised that the TINGLEY OVERSHOES RUBBERS in "medium" (8.5-10) would do the trick. On receipt, however, I struggled and failed to get them on my size 9.5 walkers. (As an experiment, I tried - successfully - to get them on my less bulky, leather dress shoes. Perhaps rubbers are primarily designed for such.) So, I exchanged the medium set for the "large" (10-11.5), and these fit the bill, so to speak. (I should note, however, that even the large pair are too small for my even more robust size 9 hiking boots. Go figure.)

The size confusion aside, the overshoes themselves are tough yet flexible. They withstood the death march through the drippy Ho, as well as a trek down the wet gravel of Rialto Beach. More to the point, my sneaks came out of the ordeal dry, unmuddied and unscathed.

I'm deducting a star because of the size discrepancy between the item as advertised and real life. My advice is to be mindful of what sort of shoe you wish to protect; if thick and bulky, go to the next larger version. And whatever the size, it definitely won't replace a crystal slipper from which to drink champagne; the bubbly dribbles down my ONP souvenir T-shirt.

I bought this item for my Father-in-Law for Christmas and he LOVES them. He thinks that they are a much better product than the Totes ones.

Locating these particular rubbers was one of those tasks my 82 year old uncle turned over to me when he had tried everything he could think of, being unfamiliar with the Internet. Amazon was the only place that listed this brand and style -- through "The Gifted Horse." My uncle was very pleased that he'll have them now for the wet weather.
