FAQ

Do you wear the Toe Thingy inside or outside the shoe?

It can be worn either way. Inside the shoe provides a cleaner look and eliminates wind drag; outside the shoe is easier to put on and remove mid-ride without taking off the shoe.

At what temperature does the Toe Thingy 2 make sense vs a full shoe cover?

The Toe Thingy 2 works well in the 45 to 60 degree F range where toes get cold but a full shoe cover would trap too much heat or feel unnecessary. Below 40 degrees, a full cover provides more reliable protection.

Will the Toe Thingy 2 slip off during hard efforts?

The elastic construction holds firmly over the toe box through normal pedaling and position changes. Wearing it inside the shoe provides additional security if slipping is a concern.

Best For

Road and gravel cyclists riding in spring and fall conditions who want a minimal, packable solution to cold toes without the bulk or commitment of a full shoe cover.
