Abstract

Footwear comprises a sole (10) including toe, instep and heel regions (11),(12),(13) and a retention member (17) provided at the toe region. The retention member upstands from the upper surface of the sole (10) and is adapted for location between the first and second toes of a wearer. The retention member (17) has a significant lengthwise extent and flares outwardly at the upper end thereof so as partially to overlie the first and second toes of a wearer. An adjustable ankle strap (26),(27),(29) is provided in the heel region (13). The footwear is retained on the foot of a wearer by the interaction of the retention member (17) and the wearer's toes, in conjunction with the ankle strap.
