Caring for your cycling gear properly will extend its life and maintain its performance, fit and quality. Its important to consider these instructions carefully. While we stand behind the quality of our apparel, not adhering to these instructions will void our warranty against manufacturing & defects.
We strongly recommend washing your new gear before wearing it. Youll find that your apparel will soften, and fit & comfort will improve after washing - especially with bibs & shorts.
Machine wash cool, 86F (30C) with like colors: Cooler temps maintain better longevity for your apparel. Like colors, especially lights, will remain more vibrant when washed with like colors.
Use mild detergent. Do not bleach or dry clean: Strong detergents & bleach can break down the fibers and elastane in the garment, dramatically reducing its life.
Close all fastenings: this goes also for other garments mixed in with your cycling apparel. Velcro closures or clasps can catch on stitching or trim and damage your garments.
Lay flat to dry. Do not tumble dry: Do not put your cycling apparel in the dryer. Even on low heat. Dont do it. Heat can damage fabric, elastic and heat transfer logos very easily. Lycra (Elastane) is used throughout our garments to provide compression and support and is susceptible to damage from heat and can irreparably damage your apparel.
The Velocio Signature Guarantee underscores our mission to create a better cycling experience. We believe that riding in our gear is the best proof of our commitment to quality and performance. Therefore, we stand behind everything we make. Try any of our products for 30 days to ensure it meets your needs. Wear it. Ride in it. Wash it. We believe it will provide a better riding experience.

Once you get them on (snug) they’re fine. Look good and are effective in the 40-50 degree range that I ride in during cool California months.
The booties are made from a laminated material with the outer layer being a stretchy fabric that is laminated with a vapor barrier (similar to a GoreTex laminate). Upon installation, the outer fabric stretches as the shoe enters, but the laminate rips ruining the water resistance of the bootie. This ripping happened during the very first installation so I returned them without using them. I did like the zipper, but the heel does not stay in place. Overall the design was good idea but it was poorly executed.
Great product. Work as advertised. They are tight fit, so follow the sizing chart to get the right size
Regarding performance, it works well in moderate temperatures (40F-55F) to keep my feet warm and dry. There is no insulation but I wanted a thin bootie for wind and water protection which would ultimately keep my feet warm by covering the ventilation on my shoes. No flapping or extra material with these booties they are aero to the max. The not so great- they are difficult to get on and once they were on my feet they are very tight to the point I feel like they are compression booties. I wore them with size 44.5 Sidi’s (size XL) and if Velocio ever sells a XXL I might size up again. Another issue is related to my shoe model, Sidi Dragons and some other models have a heel cup adjustment which adds bulk to the back of the shoe. The booties are so tight I can see through the material where it is stretching around the heel.
I've tried numerous brands of booties. These are by far the best. Fit well (true to size), are rain resistant (rainy rides up to an hour 1/2) and great looking. Everything that I expected and more. Must buy if anyone is on the fence.
