ABSTRACT:
The lower stringer of a slide fastener means is attached to an upstanding side wall of a sole, which side wall extends around the perimeter of the sole; the complementary upper stringer is attached to the lower edge portion of the upper, which loser edge portion extends around the perimeter of said upper. With the shoe disassembled, the tape of the upper stringer lies adjacent of the outer surface of the upper and carries coupler means directed upwardly. To assemble the shoe, the upper stringer tape is folded outwardly and downwardly over on itself to form an upwardly directed bight and thus dependently locating the coupler means of the upper stringer directly above the coupler means of the lower stringer so that slide fastener means can couple the two said coupler means. A removable heel cup, for reinforcing the heel region of the upper, is upwardly insertable into a heel pocket formed in the rear of the upper. Furthermore, a removable, multi-layered insole, which is contoured corresponding to the outline of the outer edge of the sole, is closely receivable within the sole side walls to sandwich therebetween the lower edge portion of said upper and the lower stringer tape.
