This is a common misconception with iron covers. I keep everything but my puter covered as well, and I can tell you, after my testing and what not, iron covers REDUCE rust, and keep your iron heads in much, much better condition. I once left my irons in my storage room for a month, without covers, and when I came and got them, they had little spots of surface rust, all over the heads, and shafts. It took me hourse to clean it all off, but I managed to do it, and they look finenow. So the next time I had to store them for a while, I put the covers on them, a month later, they looked the same as when I put them in..rust free.
I use Neoprene covers..I'm not sure how the plastic ones would fare.
