Blue disposable boot covers over work boots

Short answer: Disposable boot covers are stretchy covers that pull over work boots to keep floors clean. Ours fit men's work boots up to size 13 and shoe sizes 6 to 14, stretch to about 16.9 inches long, and come in blue, white, black and pink.

Boot covers, shoe covers and booties: what's the difference?

Mostly the name. "Boot covers", "shoe covers" and "booties" are used for the same ankle-height covers that slip over footwear. The one real difference is tall boot covers, which rise up the calf for wet or messy work. Ours are ankle height, about 7.1 inches tall, which suits indoor visits where the goal is clean floors.

Will they fit my work boots?

Fits Shoe sizes 6 to 14, men's work boots up to 13
Length (stretched) 16.9 in (43 cm)
Height 7.1 in (18 cm)
Opening 5.1 in relaxed, 13.4 in stretched

A few fit tips:

  • Pull the cover over the toe first, then stretch it back over the heel so the elastic sits around the ankle.
  • Steel-toe and lace-up boots fit fine; the elastic opening stretches to 13.4 inches.
  • If your boots are larger than a men's 13, the cover may not reach fully over the heel.

Which color should you choose?

  • Blue: the familiar look people expect from shoe covers. Blue boot covers
  • Black: discreet and hides scuffs, a favorite for service techs in clients' homes. Black boot covers
  • White: shows dirt quickly, so you know when it is time for a fresh pair. White boot covers
  • Pink: a cheerful option for events and open houses. Pink boot covers

All colors are the same 40 gsm polypropylene with the same non-slip sole.

Grip and durability

Covers without grip can be slippery on hardwood and wet tile. Ours have a non-skid sole made for those floors. Read our non-slip shoe covers guide for what to look for. Every order is covered by the Tear-Free Promise: if a cover tears, we refund the whole box, no return needed.

How many do you need?

One pair per visit. A 50-pack ($15.99) is 25 visits, a 100-pack ($24.99) is 50 visits, and a 200-pack ($39.99) is 100 visits. Crews can buy the Contractor Case: 1,000 covers for $169.99, about $0.17 each, with a free pair of reusable covers.

Frequently asked questions

Do disposable boot covers work in rain and mud?

They are water-resistant, not waterproof, so they handle wet driveways but not standing water. For wet sites, our reusable waterproof covers are a better fit.

Can I reuse them?

They are designed for one use. See disposable vs reusable shoe covers to compare costs.

Do you sell boot covers in bulk?

Yes. Beyond the Contractor Case, see wholesale pricing for volume orders.
