ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE In footwear of most varieties including boots and shoes, there is described improved footwear wherein the upper or boot portion of the footwear, including a safety toe cap, is detachably connected to the lower or heel and sole portion of the footwear. Known footwear is integrally formed such that damage to the safety toe cap necessitates replacement of the footwear if the safety features of the boot are to be maintained. In this invention, releasable fasteners such as hooks are depl- oyed about the periphery of the sole. These hooks engage a con- tinuous flexible wire which extends around the lower periphery of the upper portion of the footwear. A toe cap is formed with similar hook fasteners along its lower periphery which also en- gage the flexible wire. The toe cap hooks are spaced to fit be- tween the hooks deployed about the periphery of the sole when installed. Accordingly, the toe cap may be secured to the upper portion prior to attachment of the upper portion to the sole. Inward pressure applied to the lower edge of the upper portion will release the upper portion and thereby facilitates repair or replacement of the toe cap.
