Abstract
The present disclosure provides a cleated shoe cover comprising a flexible shell forming an internal volume with a heel area and a ball and toe area, an opening for receiving a shoe, and having internal flexible, durable, tear-resistant cushioning members disposed on both the heel area and the ball and toe area. The heel area and ball and toe area are also supported by external support members. The cleats of a shoe will sink firmly into the internal tear-resistant cushioning members, gripping them in place to prevent horizontal movement within the shoe cover, while the external support members stop the flexible shell from also deforming around the cleats and thus provide the wearer with better balance.
