I tryed google but cant find anything so I will ask here. Does any one know if you can get latex gloves for you feet? I would like to find something I can use to keep my feet dry without having to wear boots, also they would be helpfull at work as some times I would only need them for about 10mins in an eight hour day, I also think I would use them for the yard and when I walk or run in the rain.

Ahh, now I get it... we used to put bread wrappers over our socks and inside our boots to keep our feet dry... is that sort of what you are thinking?
I thought you meant a fast to put on shoe... never mind the CROCS idea then.

Ya like that, some of the people at work use meat bags from the store but I would like to find something better.

Well, it looks to me like you may have to patent something.
I think the liability on a product like this is the potential for maceration of the feet due to perspiration. Diabetics especially would have issues with it.
I am wondering if that is why there isn't something 'official' out there. KWIM?

I thought about that, sweating would be a bad thing but you think they would make something. I really hate it if I have to use the presser washer at work when its cold out and my feet are wet for the rest on the day, boots are not good for my job and I dont want to take boots to work just for 10mins of work but I might need to. also later I need to climb in a tree and cut it back , I need to walk on the wet grass to get there.

Oh come on. Has nobody heard of "rubbers"? I've got a pair of rubber overshoes I slip on over my dress shoes whenever it rains.

For 120$ I am thinking my bread bags sound pretty good to her about now. LOL!

Im looking for something dispoable, not only for home but something I can have at work for others to use if needed, meat bags work fine but I would like to find something better.Something you can wear with any shoe, well maybe not heels.

First thing I thought of. I couldn't believe it wasn't the first post either.

They aren't boots, they are rubber overshoes. They roll up and can fit in your pocket. Been around about a hundred years.

I think i came across a website once where a guy had a latex glove on his foot.
I wont go into too much detail but some lubricant was involved.
You can search for yourself to find it.
