overboot
Rubber foot protector
An overboot is a protective covering worn over regular footwear, designed to shield against water, mud, snow, or workplace hazards.
Rubber overboots slip on over shoes to keep feet dry in wet conditions.
Industrial overboots may provide chemical resistance or insulation: Workers wore steel-toed overboots in the foundry.
