When the shoe is seated on the ground and the fastener is releasably attached to the adjacent trouser leg, a rear lower edge portion of the cuff is thereby releasably attached to the shoe and held above the ground. In a preferred aspect of this invention the fastener comprises a releasable coupling having mating side portions. The one side is portion of the coupling is attached to a heel of the shoe, and wherein the other side of the coupling, adjacent to the rear side portion of the cuff, is attached thereto. Most preferably the releasable coupling comprises a head side and a cap side, said head side having a head having an outer sloped peripheral sidewall and said cap side having a cap having an interior spring ring so that when the cap is pushed over the head the spring ring therein first expands and then reduces on the sloped peripheral sidewall thereby retaining the cap on the head. | 12-24-2009 |
