ABSTRACT:
A reinforced shoe device. A shoe framework includes rigid side rails configured to reside adjacent opposing sides of the user's foot, intercoupled by at least one support rib extending upwardly from said rails so as to reside above the user's foot. An articulating toe brace is pivotally attached to the side rails and extends forwardly therefrom for supporting a front portion of the user's foot thereupon. A flexible sole is secured to the side rails, and flexible shoe walls are disposed upon the shoe framework such that the shoe walls, shoe framework and flexible sole cooperatively define an enclosure configured and dimensioned to receive at least the front portion of the user's foot thereinto. Retractable locking arms are pivotally attached to the side rails and are attachable to recreational devices such as swim fins or skis.
