Abstract
The Shoe Cover is a shoe cover that is made of flexible material that encompasses the shoe in a manner that it allows no sand or foreign particles to enter inside of the shoe. The flexible material stretches to the bottom of the shoes exposing only the lower shoe and the heel to be exposed. The Web Strap keeps the two sides together, giving the Shoe Cover integrity to maintain its form. The Web Strap wraps under the shoe, stretching the flexible material over the top of the shoe, providing the seal required keeping out the moisture or foreign particles.
