The side members, front piece and cross-pieces can be sewn together, or cut from one piece of material. The front piece is sewn to the toe of the shoe or otherwise permanently attached. The side members may be removably attached to the shoe by strips of hook and loop fasteners (22, 40), when the attachment is not in use. The attachment may also be secured against the shoe by a strap (34) passing over it. The strap is permanently attached to one side of the shoe, and removably attached to the other side of the shoe by hook and loop fasteners (42, 44).</p> |
