Abstract:

A shoe mounting apparatus utilizes two elongated straps, each having a hook-like end, disposed at one end thereof, and another hook-like end, whose axis is askew to the longitudinal axis of the strap. Mounting holes are provided, through each strap, for mounting the pair of straps to a vertical standard, thereby enabling a pair of shoes to be placed within the apparatus, having the sole and heel portions thereof engaging the vertical standard and being retained within the straps by engaging opposite sides of the sole edge, intermediate the instep and the toe portion of each shoe. In one embodiment, each strap is bifurcated and provided with slots, thereby permitting the apparatus to be adjusted as to the distance separating the hook-like ends, accommodating thereby, shoes of various widths.
