Unfortunately not. A friend got some bright yellow fisherman’s trousers, but those were pure rubber and not breathable!

great tip – thanks
i wasnt sure if i would require over trousers for cycling in but i will leave it now.
another idea is to use old pairs of socks over your work shoes to keep them clean. you can then dry them out for the next occaision. I have been bike commuting for around 20 years – the chance of getting wet (in the UK) are around 1 in 10. i will now look for some garters!
