A cuff support in the form of an extension for a shoe, conveniently a golf shoe. The extension is integral with the shoe or individual ones of the extensions can be mounted on the shoe. In the latter event, adhesive material is used within the extension and connects the extension to the heel portion of the shoe. A member of the extension extends rearwardly and upwardly and serves to support the cuffs of the trousers of a user thereby to keep the trouser cuffs clean by maintaining the position of the cuffs within the extension and out of contact with the grass or ground.
