Abstract:

The present provides impervious shoccovers primarily for use in medical applications. The shoecovers have a boot which define an inside area, and an elastic band attached to an ankle section of the boot. The boot has a top which defines a foot opening to the inside area, and a bottom opposite of the top. The ankle section is positioned between the top and the bottom. The elastic band is attached to a flap at the ankle section of the boot which extends beyond a fluid resistant seal and thus, leaves the ankle section free of perforations to the inside area. The shoecover is made from a fluid resistant or impervious material.
