There are many different types of protective shoe covers. Healthcare professionals wear protective shoe covers to protect sterile and clean environments. Real estate agents and prospective homebuyers wear protective shoe covers to protect carpets and hardwood floors from stains and heavy traffic. Hikers and bike enthusiasts wear protective shoe covers to keep their feet warm and dry in rainy or inclement weather. Professionals use protective shoe covers to keep dress shoes, or leather shoes, from mud and water damage. Those are just a few examples. Disposable protective shoe covers can be used by anyone for multiple needs.

Protective shoe covers can be rubber, plastic, vinyl, nylon, or polyethylene. Most medical protective shoe covers are polyethylene. Polyethylene is a non-woven material. Dirty and grime cannot be trapped in the weave of the material because there is no weave to trap it. It is also non-static. Polyethylene protective shoe covers do not hold on to dirt, dust, pollen and other particles because they don’t have any static electricity.  Medical protective shoe covers are also waterproof, and will protect your shoes and feet from spillage and stains. Anti-skid protective shoe covers are easily found, and they have all the convenience of shoe covers, with added tread on the bottom for safety.
