Abstract

A shoe cover for covering a shoe to present the look like the wearer is wearing a different pair of shoes. The shoe cover includes an upper piece configured to cover the shoe of a wearer, the upper piece sized to cover a specific shoe without being attached to the shoe while the shoe is worn. The shoe cover includes a sole piece coupled to a bottom of the upper piece and configured to grip surfaces as the wearer uses the shoe cover and a gripping insert secured within the cavity created of the upper piece to guard against slippage of the cover on the shoe with the intent of ensuring the safety of the wearer.
