A method providing for making and using a soft-shelled foot covering, by placing a foot within a covering such as a sock, placing the foot with the foot covering within an outline pattern, and manipulating various straps of the outline pattern, such as an inside heel strap, an outside heel strap, an inside ball-of-the-foot strap, an outside ball-of-the-foot strap, a center toes strap, an inside big toe strap, and an outside little toe strap around the foot and other straps, thereby keeping the straps in place and securing the pattern to the foot.
