DEVICE FOR PROTECTING SOLE OF FOOTWEAR AGAINST DAMAGE CAUSED FROM IMPACTING FOOT-DRIVEN TOOL

摘要

A device for protecting footwear includes a base with length less than a length of the sole of the footwear to be protected and a width greater than a width of the sole. The base has a top surface for placement adjacent the sole of the footwear and a bottom surface for abutting against a foot-driven tool. A right sidewall extends upward from the right side of the base, and a left sidewall extends upward from the left side of the base. A strap is attached to the right sidewall and the left sidewall for looping around the footwear to hold the top surface of the base adjacent the sole of the footwear. In this way, a user can impact the foot-driven tool with the device instead of the sole of the footwear thereby protecting the sole against damage, and the sidewalls prevent the device laterally sliding off the sole.
