Abstract:

A cloth retention strip is folded to have two plies. The retention strip is sewn onto an oval shaped cloth panel along a border thereof. A draw string is retained between the plies. The draw string is operable to draw the panel over the toe and around the heel of a shoe that is worn by a user. The draw string may be held in place by fastening two cloth tabs on the draw string to each other or to a third fastener on the shoe covering. A non-skid material may be sewn, baked, or deposited onto the outside surface to provide a non-skid surface.
