A side strap (9) has to extensions (7, 8) forming a fork at the bottom, secured to two anchorages on the shoe. This has a set of holes (10) at the top for the hook (5). a front strap (13) of resilient material is similarly attached by a piece (12) to the toe cap of the shoe (6). this similarly has holes (15) for the front hook (4).
