The bottom part of the shoe is comprised of strategically placed patches of durable, harder, gripped surface, rubber. The gripped texture is rough and ridged in order to provide grip and control when wearing, walking, running; skipping, etc . . . The patches are strategically placed on the bottom of the shoe in order to not interfere with the transformation process from pump to flat type shoe. These portions of the bottom rubber material are adequate for support and function of the shoe(s). The patches of the durable rubber are raised off the bottom of the shoe with a depth of a quarter inch to two inches in depth. The fabric material that covers the body of the shoe is held on by a rubber, expandable, retractable type adhesives. (end of abstract) Agent: John G. Palmeri Iii - Maywood, NJ, US Inventor: John G.
