ABSTRACT:
A footwear accessory for use with a shoe includes a stocking-like structure having a lower foot portion and an upper ankle portion wherein the lower foot portion is made of a porous hosiery material and the upper ankle portion is made of a material which simulates a boot leg. According to a presently preferred embodiment of the invention, the upper ankle portion is made of a stretchable material, may have a glossy or non-glossy appearance, may be a solid color or a print, may be provided with different textures and may include a functional closure device such as a zipper or a number of buttons or clasps. The dimensions of the upper and lower portions of the footwear accessory according to the invention are preferably chosen so that the lower foot portion is completely concealed by a shoe. The dimensions of the upper ankle portion may vary to cover any length of leg desired. One presently preferred embodiment has an upper ankle portion which terminates slightly below the knee. Another presently preferred embodiment has an upper portion which terminates above the knee at a mid-portion of the thigh.
