Apparatus for cleaning a shoe sole and methods for making and using same

摘要

A shoe sole wiping pad is sewn to the outer surface of an athletic sock's upper tube portion. The wiping pad absorbs and retains moisture and has a moisture-bearing wiping surface that removes dust and debris from the sole of an athletic shoe when the wearer wipes the sole across the pad. A moisture barrier isolates the wiping pad from the upper tube portion of the sock to prevent moisture from soaking into the sock from the wiping pad.
