I’m walking 60 miles this weekend in the Susan G. Komen 3-day Breast cancer walk and it’s supposed to rain for at least one of the days 
What can i put over my shoes to keep them from getting soaked?!?
I had thought of small trash bags, but i’m afraid they’ll just wear out on the bottom so quickly!
Thanks, everybody!
Congratulations! That is a great thing of you to do! I would invest in some gators. they are for hiking, and they should do a pretty good job of keeping the water out of your socks and shoes. Other than gators I don’t see much you can do other than change shoes at the halfway point. Even if you waterproof your shoes that will have no effect if it rains constantly.

2009 Mar 03 1there are sprays availible to help shoes repell watter, check around local shoe stores and athletic places, maby they will have some, maby not, if they do i’d say it’s a worthwile investment
if notdo the trashcan thing, and ducktape the bag around the shoe, that way you have a tougher substance taking the beating, and the bag wont fill up with watter
actualy, if yo make sure not to do it do tight, you could forget tha bag and go straight to the tape, though it is a tad tedious to remove it
