An convertible overshoe for disposition on one primary shoe and being convertible for disposition on a larger primary shoe. Each of said primary shoes has an outer surface. The overshoe is formed as an integral unit of an elastic material, e.g., rubber, and comprises a sole and an upper. The sole includes anti-slip grit on its outer surface. The upper is in the.form of a peripheral sidewall having an opening at the top edge thereof. The opening is of a sufficient size to enable a primary shoe to be extended therethrough so that it is received closely within the overshoe to prevent the overshoe from falling off. The sidewall of the upper includes a reinforcing strip in the form of a continuous thickened bead extending along a portion of the peripheral edge of the opening and spaced below that edge and an associated contiguous portion defining a trim line. The material of the sidewall at the trim line is readily severable so that it can be severed to remove the sidewall portion of the upper from it to the opening. This action forms an enlarged opening in the upper for a larger primary shoe to be extended through it into to overshoe. The reinforcing bead prevents the overshoe from tearing at the enlarged opening should that opening be stretched when the larger primary shoe is inserted therethrough.
