ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to overshoes for golf shoes, and more particularly to size-adjustable overshoes for golf shoes.
A golf course often gets wet and muddy in rainy days. Mud covering a golfer's shoes tends to smear or even enter the golf shoes to cause discomfort of the golfer, and the mud on the golf shoes is easily brought into a house to smear the floor. There is one type of overshoes available in the market for wearing over the golf shoes to improve the above-mentioned problems with mud-smeared golf shoes. Such overshoes are made into different sizes to match with differently sized golf shoes. The production of such fixedly sized overshoes is therefore troublesome and golfers need to pick and buy the overshoes carefully to meet the size of their golf shoes. This is, of course, very inconvenient for the golfers to do so.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
A primary object of the present invention is to provide a size-adjustable overshoe for golf shoe, so that golfers need not to take time to pick overshoes that fully match with the size of their golf shoes.
To achieve the object, the overshoe of the present invention mainly includes a sole portion that is in the form of a frame and is cut at suitable positions into several segments. Elastic connecting strips are used to connect these segments to one another, so that the sole portion is elastically expandable and contractible at these connecting strips to adjust its size. When the overshoes according to the present invention is worn over a pair of golf shoes, the elastic connecting strips allow the sole portions of the overshoes to conveniently elastically adjust the size thereof to meet with the size of the golf shoes.
