ABSTRACT:
A gaiter rand for application to a boot is of elastic material and has a periphery adapted for attachment to the open bottom of the flexible upper portion of the gaiter. The rand has front and rear openings therein separated by a transverse instep strap, the shapes of the openings conforming with but being of smaller dimensions than those of the sole and heel of the boot. An upstanding rib on the inside surface of the rand extends around at least the front extent of the front opening, while a corresponding groove is formed around at least the toe portion of the sole of the boot. On stretching the rand onto the boot, the openings seal against the sole and heel respectively of the boot while the instep strap seals against the instep, the co-operation of the rib with the groove preventing unintentional removal of the rand from the boot even on substantial flexing of the sole of the boot.
