ABSTRACT:
A brace for keeping the socks, soft shoes, booties and moccasins of infants from falling off when being worn. The brace is comprised of an elastic Moobius band. This band is first slipped over the foot to rest around the ankle portion of the footwear being worn. Once positioned there, it is then twisted once to form another loop which is stretched over the foot and released around the arch portion of the footwear. When properly worn, the brace provides three sources (20,22,24) of counter tension to hold the infant footwear snugly yet comfortably intact. This brace can also be fully incorporated into the soft shoe/moccasin/booty itself by constructing in the applicable footwear a casing (26) to hold the elastic band, which when inserted through the casing will form the brace as well as serve as a shoe lace for adjusting the fit.
