Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a protector for shoes, such as work shoes or firefighting boots, and more particularly to a protector for a shoe with a shaft and lacing and a shoe provided with such a protector.
  • work shoes or firefighting boots when used as intended, are subject to numerous actions and are ideally made to provide the wearer with some protection against these effects.
  • work shoes typically have a steel toe on the front of the shoe as well as other incorporated reinforcements, such as at the ankles and the rear cap.
  • work shoes may have reinforced soles.
  • integral reinforcements are in part prescribed by protective regulations and have been found to be advantageous, as they ensure improved protection of the corresponding leg and leg sections.
  • a protector for a shoe is provided with a lacing, wherein the protector is adapted for attachment by means of lacing on the front part of the shoe and after attachment to the shoe at least partially covers the front part of the shoe.
  • the protector according to the invention has numerous advantages.
