Abstract: Foot protector (30) adapted to be worn between the foot and a predefined shaped item of outer footwear (10), comprising a thin flexible resilient elastic non slip membrane (30) shaped to grip the foot without slipping. The membrane (30) is of a complementary shape corresponding to the predefined shape of the outer footwear (10) so as to engage the outer footwear (10) in a non slip manner. The membrane (30, 31, 32, 36) may have an orthopaedic style of support (41) integrally incorporated into the foot protector (30) to provide support under the arch of the foot of the wearer.
