Abstract
A leg-driven cleaning system embodying cleaning footwear device fluidly connected to cleaning solution is provided. The cleaning footwear includes cleaning bristles along an underside thereof, as well as a nozzle adjacent to the underside for selectively applying the cleaning solution while a wearer of the cleaning footwear device utilizes their leg strength to wipe their feet to scrub their carpet clean. The leg-driven cleaning system does not take up much room, is easy to store, is very cost effective, and anyone from the ages seven to ninety can operate.

A leg-driven carpet spot cleaning system, comprising:
- a cleaning footwear device dimensioned and adapted to be worn on a foot of a human user;
- the cleaning footwear device comprising an underside defined by a sole interfacing a heel so that a front face of the heel extends downward of the sole;
- a base connected to the sole and reinforced by the front face of the heel;
- a plurality of bristles extending from the base;
- and
- a spray nozzle connected outside a periphery of the underside,
- whereby the human user can selectively target one or more spots along the carpet for cleaning or removing said one or more spots.
A leg-driven carpet spot cleaning system, comprising:
- a cleaning footwear device dimensioned and adapted to be worn on a foot of a human user;
- the cleaning footwear device comprising an underside defined by a sole interfacing a heel so that a front face of the heel extends downward of the sole;
- a base connected to the sole and reinforced by the front face of the heel;
- a plurality of bristles extending from the base;
- the plurality of bristles comprise:
- a plurality of first bristles adjacent to a periphery of the base, wherein each first bristle has a first length;
- and
- a plurality of second bristles generally circumscribed by the plurality of first bristles, wherein each second bristle has a second length shorter than the first length for causing a cleaning solution into an agitated interactive condition within a plurality of fibers of a carpet;
- a spray nozzle connected outside a periphery of the underside;

- a plurality of bristles extending from the base;
- the plurality of bristles comprise:
- a plurality of first bristles adjacent to a periphery of said base, wherein each first bristle has a first length;
- and
- a plurality of second bristles generally circumscribed by the plurality of first bristles, wherein each second bristle has a second length shorter than the first length for causing a cleaning solution into an agitated interactive condition within a plurality of fibers of a carpet;
- a spray nozzle connected outside said periphery of the underside;
- a fluid connection directly connecting the spray nozzle and the cleaning solution for selectively dispersing the cleaning solution in spray form;
- and
- a leg connector for securing the fluid connection to the human user's leg;
