y people use shoe covers to protect the shoes that only are worn once in a blue moon, such as for dinner parties, weddings, or other special occasions, so that they do not collect debris or dust. It is also a great way to make sure your shoes don’t get scuffed when you put them in a box, such as if you are moving residencies. Whether you are in need of protection because you are going on a trip or just for regular storage, a shoe cover can be a rather easy thing to assemble. Best of all, they will maintain the quality of the shoe for years.

  1. Find a fabric store and purchase some felt. You should buy extra, if possible, and consider how many shoes you are looking to cover. A pair of men’s shoes will probably take up a yard of felt, and two pairs of ladies’ shoes will take up the same amount. If you are looking to cover boots or something equally large, be generous and get extra felt. If you wish, you can purchase one button per shoe cover in order to properly close them.
  2. Use your shoe size in order to determine how large you should craft your shoe cover. Take one of your shoes and put it on top of the felt. Fold each side over so that it covers your shoe entirely. Your shoe cover size will be decided after allowing for about an inch of extra fabric on all four sides. When you have determined the size, cut two congruent squares from the fabric.
  3. Sew a folded down edge from the top. The result should make the edge smooth without any jagged lines. Do this on both squares. Put one on top of the other, such that the top edges are adjacent, the folded edges on the outside. You should now sew the squares together, on the remaining edges. Place the line of sewing half an inch from the outer edge.
  4. Take the pocket you just made and pull it inside out. Take your finger and softly push it so that the corners come out. Pick one of the open edges and cut a hole that measures out to be slightly larger than that of the button you bought earlier. Sew the button to the inside of the other edge, making a great opportunity to fasten your shoe cover.
