overshoes
Wet weather footgear
Overshoes are protective footwear worn over regular shoes, typically to guard against rain, snow, or mud.
They may be rubber galoshes, waterproof boots, or slip-on covers: She pulled on her overshoes before stepping into the slush.
The term is somewhat old-fashioned, as modern waterproof boots have largely replaced them.
