This invention relates to new and useful iming member I4 is attached to the bottom of the provements in a legging. said legging body I0. The invention has for an objectl the construc- 'Ihe rubber shoe covering member I4 is in the VJtion of a legging which is characterized by a form of a rubber element adapted to engage over 5 hollow cylindrical legging body of stretchable the shoe. The legging is particularly intended to 'u cloth material, and a rubber shoe covering membe worn during wet and stormy weather. A novel ber attached on the bottom oi' the legging body arrangement is used in securing the shoe coverfor engaging over the shoe. ing member I4 to the bottom of the legging body More specifically, the invention contemplates l0.
