Title: disposable foot wear protectors
Post by: jouk45 on January 14, 2010, 09:16:48 pm
never ever been ask this, but since i started back on tuesday, loads have asked if i can just do the fronts, as they dont want snow or mud left by the thaw going on to their carpet from my boots, i think i had better buy shoe protectors, i had thought about it, just never bought them, am going to buy a box of them now, anyone else ask this

Not worth getting less than 1000. I use them all the time & have had many favourable comments from the custies.

cant remember but about 3 or 4 quid for a box of 100 and as long as you dont rip them they can be used more than once

ive got a few that i bought from the windowclean centre.never used them yet as i dont clean ANY inside windows or have to go through the houses to clean the back except through garages.

might use them when i go to my brothers house to save taking my boots off as his missus wont let us in the living room with em on!

The only problem with them is that they are only available in one size  and are a very tight fit over an average pair of boots.
