Here we go! It takes me about 1 minute to put them on, 10 min. to make them incl. the elastic strips with velcro and cost about 70 cents per set. I don't fix the strips to the shoes so I can use them over and over again even when the shoes have a hole. They are washable and when they are worn out (Mitzi manages always to get holes in them after 5 to 10 times wearing them) I just throw them away and make new ones. You get 2 sets out of 1 pair of gloves. The rubber dots are great on slippery surfaces. What I like most is that they are string knit and have no seams.

Pic. 1 = Mitzi lays on her back on a comfy pillow and is totally relaxed while I'm putting her shoes on in no time

Pic. 2 = Mitzi all ready to go

Pic. 3 = Mitzi not 'under' but 'above' the boardwalk

Pic. 4 = the Brahma gloves, how I cut them and one of the elastic strips
