I love 'em. I used them once last week and again today. Today's use was an utterly continuous one hour light-to-moderate rain. Result: dry shoes with only slightly trickly damp ankles. That's the gold standard for me.
In general they are a great compromise between protection and convenience. There may be somewhat superior solutions for people who have skinny shoes. In particular, for me, they're pert nigh perfection. They actually completely cover my 11.5 Keens! There's enough airflow under them that my feet don't get extra damp. And I can put the Splats on just by bending at the waist and lifting each foot (consecutively, not concurrently!). No need to find dry land to sit on. As the photos show, I can carry them easily. And after tonight's ride home I know they work in a good solid hour of rain. Basically, I had a Splats-shaped void in my commuting life. So I'm very happy with them.
