Abstract

Interchangeable slip-on golf overshoes for fitting over conventional footwear includes (a) a first golf overshoe being sufficiently symmetrical from a top view to be interchangeably worn over a shoe on a left foot and over a shoe on a right foot of a golfer, the first golf overshoe having at least a sole, a toe component and a heel component and having a portion of the first golf overshoe being stretchable; and the first golf overshoe having a predetermined pattern of spikes on the bottom of its sole; and, (b) a second golf overshoe being sufficiently symmetrical from a top view to be interchangeably worn over a shoe on a left foot and over a shoe on a right foot of a golfer, the second golf overshoe having at least a sole, a toe component and a heel component and having a portion of the second golf overshoe being stretchable; and the second golf overshoe having a predetermined pattern of spikes on the bottom of its sole. One overshoe preferably has a golfing front or anchor foot predetermined pattern, while the other overshoe has a golfing rear or pivot foot predetermined pattern, so as to enhance stabilization of the front foot and rotation of the back foot during a golf swing.
