Interchangeable Straps Slippers/Flip-flop

Abstract

A Triangular metal base, sandwiched between the foot-bed and bottom sole on slippers/flip-flop, would allow an user to interchange the ‘straps’ matching their outfit, for style or taste. There would be only one foot base which could be worn with interchangeable ‘straps’. This is almost like having 2 or more pair of slippers/flip-flop for a lesser price. In addition there would be full or partial elastic band strap that would go around the upper ankle with clasps which would be attached to the Straps to give a grip to the foot by holding the foot tight to the slippers/flip-flops. As an inventor, I would manufacture this as 4 parts, triangular metal base with clasp eye, multilayered foot base, straps with claps, elastic ankle band with clasps.

1 . The design and method of  claim 1  is that the foot ware base and the strap are not attached together, but come separately. This way the user can change the strap according to their outfit and style. 
     
     
         2 . The design of  claim 2  is that the triangular metal with protruding clasp-eye on all the corners. 
     
     
         3 . The design and method of  claim 3  is that the triangular metal with clasp-eye would be embedded and sandwiched between the foot-bed and bottom sole. 
     
     
         4 . The design and method of  claim 4  is that a Strap is a single three handed piece with clasps at its end. 
     
     
         5 . The design and method of  claim 5  is that a Strap could be a disintegrated to  3  pieces with clasp-eye on one end and a clasp on the other. 
     
     
         6 . The design and method of  claim 6  is that a partially or fully elastic band with clasps to its end could be hooked to the straps for extra grip.
