See Deuteronomy ch.25. When a Levirate divorce is performed, part of the ceremony is that the woman removes the man's shoe.

A Levirate divorce is the ceremony releasing the woman from the need to enter a Levirate marriage.

A Levirate marriage is a traditional practice by which a woman would marry her brother-in-law if her husband had died without having had children.

It is at the very center of Judaism, or rather, it is the central defining feature of Judaism. First note that the Hebrew Scriptures discuss several covenants, the covenant of the rainbow made with Noah and his sons, the covenant of the parts made with Abraham are examples. However, when someone says "the covenant" they are usually asking about the covenant made between God and the Children of Israel at Siani. Jews traditionally hold that the entire Torah (quibbling about the final verses) is the product of that covenant and that all 613 commandments found in the Torah are part of this covenant.
