  • Patent number: 5329704
    Abstract: A slip on attachment for use on footwear when additional traction is needed has a sole, a heel seat and resilient arms. The sole is divided by a slit opening through the toe portion and extending into the heel seat and is resiliently yieldable so that it will spread apart as footwear is inserted between and under the arms until the heel of the footwear can enter the heel seat, the arms then engaging and holding the footwear in its waist line zone. The sections of the sole are provided with anti-slip portions.
