I take it you have not used them Martin?

They are a form of decontamination.

However 'footwear decontamination' also takes place in other places .. for example some clean rooms, chemical laboratories.

For that reason I would add a sub tag say footwear=hiking to state that it is intended for hikers shoes/boots. There could also be sub tags for the decontamination, say pathogens, seeds, dirt etc. Depending on how detailed you want to be.

I'd certainly not use a tag that could in any way be used for shoe polishing ... not on. If you want to tag that use some other tag.

How about

man_made=footwear_decontamination?

Makes it pretty obvious that you're just talking about getting them polished!


decontamination makes it less clear for me, sounds like some military or disaster related device to remove nuclear contamination or chemical warfare agents.

Cheers,
Martin
