Scentless and odorless boot cover

Abstract

A single-use scentless and odorless boot cover for placing over a user's boot to prevent scent from the boot from being left on the ground as the user walks is provided. The boot cover includes a tubular body having an open entrance end and a closed toe end. The tubular body is comprised of a material that is scentless and odorless and is configured such that it can receive the boot and sized such that it can completely cover the boot's shaft.

1 . A single-use scentless and odorless boot cover for placing over a user's boot to prevent scent from the boot from being left on the ground as the user walks, the boot cover comprising:
 a tubular body having an open entrance end and a closed toe end, wherein the tubular body is configured such that it can receive the boot and sized such that it can completely cover the boot's shaft,   wherein the tubular body is comprised of a material that is scentless and odorless.   
     
     
         2 . The boot cover of  claim 1 , wherein the tubular body further comprises:
 a foot section comprising the closed toe end; and   a shaft section comprising the open entrance end, the shaft section connected to and at an angle with respect to the foot section.   
     
     
         3 . The boot cover at  claim 1 , wherein the tubular body further comprises:
 a foot section comprising the closed toe end;   a shaft section comprising the open entrance end, the shaft section at an angle with respect to the foot section; and   an ankle section between and connected to each of the foot section and the shaft section,   wherein the ankle section provides additional internal space.   
     
     
         4 . The boot cover of  claim 1 , wherein the closed toe end is domed. 
     
     
         5 . The boot cover of  claim 1 , wherein the material is elastic and the tubular body is sized to be tight against the boot such that, when installed on the boot, the tubular body maintains its position on the boot. 
     
     
         6 . The boot cover of  claim 1 , wherein a length of a shaft section of the tubular body is greater than a length of the boot's shaft such that the shaft section can cover an outer surface of the boot's shaft in its entirety and fold over and inside of the boot's shaft, the boot cover further comprising:
 at least one clip to clip the shaft section where the shaft section folds over the boot's shaft.   
     
     
         7 . The boot cover of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a drawstring proximate the open entrance end of the tubular body to tighten the tubular body such that the tubular body maintains its position on the boot, and   a drawstring clip through which the drawstring extends.   
     
     
         8 . The boot cover of  claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the material is thin enough such that the boot's tread can be felt through the material. 
     
     
         9 . The boot cover of  claim 1 , wherein the material comprises areas of varying thicknesses. 
     
     
         10 . The boot cover of  claim 9 , wherein the material is thicker proximate an area of the tubular body that, when installed on the boot, is proximate one of a sole area and a heel area of the boot to provide improved resistance to tearing. 
     
     
         11 . The boot cover of  claim 9 , wherein the areas of varying thicknesses comprise thicker dimples proximate an area of the tubular body that, when installed on the boot, is proximate one of a sole area and a heel area of the boot to provide improved traction. 
     
     
         12 . The boot cover of  claim 9 , wherein the areas of varying thicknesses comprise thicker ridges proximate an area of the tubular body that, when installed on the boot, is proximate one of a sole area and a heel area of the boot to provide improved traction. 
     
     
         13 . The boot cover of  claim 1 , wherein the tubular body is configured to be round such that the tubular body can easily receive the boot. 
     
     
         14 . The boot cover of  claim 1 , wherein the material is flexible enough such that the tubular body can easily receive the boot. 
     
     
         15 . The boot cover of  claim 1 , wherein the material is sterilized. 
     
     
         16 . The boot cover of  claim 1 , wherein the material is inelastic and the tubular body is sized such that, when installed on the boot, the tubular body is loose around the boot. 
     
     
         17 . The boot cover of  claim 1 , wherein the material comprises one or more of plastic, latex, and rubber. 
     
     
         18 . A single-use scentless boot cover kit for preventing scent from a user's boot from being left on the ground as the user walks, the kit comprising:
 a scentless and odorless boot cover comprising:
 a tubular body having an open entrance end and a closed toe end, wherein the tubular body is configured such that it can receive the boot and sized such that it can completely cover the boot's shaft, 
 wherein the tubular body is comprised of a material that is scentless and odorless; and 
   individual packaging surrounding the boot cover.   
     
     
         19 . The kit of  claim 18 , wherein the material comprises areas of varying thicknesses to provide one or more of improved resistance to tearing and improved traction. 
     
     
         20 . The kit of  claim 18 , further comprising:
 a rubber band configured to be placed on an outer surface of the boot cover at one of a top portion of the boot and the user's leg.
