Anyone ever found a set that last more that just a few weeks before shredding themselves?

if you can avoid walking in them yes but my top tip for repairing them is dental floss as thread.Oh i bought a pair of winter boots 3 years ago after getting fed up with them

You want to try riding the bike up the hills and not pushing the bike up!

Steady-on Postie!!! 😉

I thought the same thing after my MT500's ripped after 2 rides. I took them back to my LBS thinking I had a faulty pair, but was told that I would be lucky to get 1 winter out of them, and to expect them to be wrecked after a few months use.

They're fine if you ride your bike rather than push it 😈

Don't bother. Apart from the the fact that they make you look like a two legged shire horse, they're crap.
Just get some sealskinz.

My Shimano PRO seem really tough up to now

altura neoprenes – no zips no mess

ive got 2 pairs both still in active service – one pair did 3500 miles round new zealand with me – the other has survived 2 singlespeed strathpuffers(one of them solo) and 3 winters of crud.

Pre this i tried all your fancy mtb ones – found although neoprene isnt waterproof it seems to be remarkably tough ! – i also have winter boots and have found my self wearing merino socks , shimano winter boots and overshoes on occasion – many layers are better than 1 thick mantra applies to feet too you know ….

wear really thin neoprene socks instead of overshoes they will last then!!

On the road – yais. My rather tatty Deodara overshoes are 15 years old and still hanging together.

Off road: Forget it IMO. Get some over-sized winter boots and wear decent socks underneath.

My boots are a bit too tight really, which is more that half the problem. Might have to try some neoprene…

I'm on my second winter with my Endura MT500's; they've worn through in one place, but that happened after a few rides & hasn't got any worse so I wonder if I didn't pull the sole on properly for that particular ride.

Reckon they're good for another season…..

A mate's got a pair & the sole's fine, but he's broken the zips – his are on the 2nd winter too…

wear really thin neoprene socks instead of overshoes they will last then!!

After spending an hour defrosting my feet after yesterdays ride i might look into that suggestion. Cheers!

As above, on the road they last ages. Off road they're crap unless you ride the kind of trails where you never put a foot down. Winter shoes and waterproof socks are the answer.

As many have mentioned overshoes are for the road not mtb.

seal skins socks are the best off road i've found
