In the semantic web, Simple HTML Ontology Extensions are a small set of HTML extensions designed to give web pages semantic meaning by allowing information such as class, subclass and property relationships. SHOE had little adoption due to the limited vocabulary of ways that HTML pages could be coded.

SHOE was developed around 1996 by James Hendler, Jeff Heflin and Sean Luke at the University of Maryland, College Park.
