Notice i didn't say "booties" because if i did, someone or a few would make some sort of sarcasm remark and would not contribute very much to this topic...

So with that said, is there a best shoe cover out there for cleaners? I've used some light blue/green color ones but they tend to rip quite easily and are hard to fit for someone with a large shoe size.

Do colors or "colours" matter? White/Blue, in terms of quality and durability?

What is the best shoe cover that won't rip on us, maybe even a re-useable one would be nice too.

Did you catch the STEP 'N GO! SHOE COVER DISPENSER SYSTEM on that site? How about selling that as an add-on to your finest clients? LOL!

I do it out of my respect for their home, especially if they are the type of no shoes indoors.

The ones i had were anti-skid, but i could barely fit in them, maybe it was for smaller shoe sizes.

Did you hate them in Hawaii too? :mrgreen:

I like tmdry wear it out of respect for their house and don't want to get in technical discussion about health and safety. Here in Hawaii about 80-90% of the people go bare foot in homes, it's just the way things are here. My pops feet stink, so it's a good alternative but he doesn't like wearing them.

If it's water damage, they can KMA!

I went around and around with the shoe covers in HI, it was always a struggle, for carpets I would digress, but the worst was window cleaning, indoor ladderwork demanded footwear and brother, as you know that wasn't an arguement easily won.

They would go over well in the Bay Point area. Probably not so much in South Port . :shock:

Sometimes I wish I carried some....but I have yet to do it. Some customers are super picky. I'm also probably going to get some gloves shortly cause in the winter my hands get dried due to touching the chemicals all the time, which I know isn't smart.

is there another way to direct you to the website where they have a good deal on booties, sorry, shoe covers?

I like these ones, one, they're inexpensive,
two, they do the job.
I've got a case of the original ones that I keep for my own use, for when I'm applying protector, replacing furn or for whatever reason I have to walk back in on the carpet.
