I was chatting with some guy wearing a seriously neon outfit who advised that he now wears this after getting hit by a truck. He mentioned that he has booties they are made of some blindingly bright reflective material.
Does anyone know who makes these? It sounds like a wise investment now that summer is over...

You can also spray this on your shoes or kit.

I use homemade 2" wide reflective ankle bands with wool felt lining. You can sew the silver 3M Illuminite on virtually any clothing and not even know it's there. It's the same reflective treatment as the Sugoi booties. Withstands machine washing, too.
In addition to those mentioned, maybe not your cup of tea, but Rapha makes a set too... No personal experience with them though.

Good post...now, anyone come across reflective boots and with a little window so you can access the Sidi ratchet on the shoe, to snug it tighter once your foot starts sweating and the shoe loosens? I prefer not to start with blue feet but snug up during the ride. Can't do that easily with most booties or covers.
