dhb Toe Cover Overshoe (2012)

先日トウ・カバーを買いました。

まだ本格的な冬が到来していないので実際の使用感が分からないという、
楽天市場で目にする様なレビューになってしまうのですが、
販売者のページに詳しいサイズ情報が載っていないので、
その補完としてとりあえず装着時の寸法などを書こうと思います。

 Toe covers (size S-M) bought in November 2012 from Wiggle

One ravelled after a few wearings

I will stitch it up later.
Zigzag stitching is appropriate here
and when done by hand it should be stronger.

Put on a Shimano SH-MT23 shoe (41 size)
which measures 275mm length externally,

and 285mm girth externally at the point where sit the ball of the thumb.

The toe cover itself measures 175mm length
(from the upper hem to the anterior seam)
and 260mm girth (at the longitudinal center of the hole).

The cleat is at the center of both the longitudinal 
and lateral adjustable ranges of the shoe
and is off from the center of toe cover hole.

The longitudinal adjustable range of the cleat hole
is 84-112mm (from the external anterior end of the shoe)
and thus the center is at 98mm point
while that of the toe cover hole is at 90mm point.

The hole measures 85mm length and 

65mm width when put on.


This geometry can cause contact between the toe cover hole hem
and the pedal platform though it seems to have no problem
when clipping in and out.
