Abstract

See full text

Boots can be comfortable and stylish by providing expansion in the shaft of a boot. Portions of a shaft can include deformable and/or elastically resilient materials. A resilient portion can provide for ease of passage of a foot down the boot shaft. Resilient portions can be arranged to provide camouflaging and/or blending such that resilient portions can be difficult to distinguish from conventional stylings on protective materials of a boot shaft. Resilient features may be curved or angled to visually fit in with and even be camouflaged by surrounding decorative ornamentation on the shaft. Some boots can have resilient material within an opening having a transition from an upper vertical portion to a lower curved portion that includes a turn of approximately 90 degrees in the shape of the opening. Some boots can have straps that can be positioned to physically obscure portions of resilient material.
