ATHLETIC SANDAL.

EDWARD STERN, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
ATHLETIC SANDAL.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Get. 24, 1916.
Application filed July 10, 1916. Serial No. 108,316. I
- To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EDWARD STERN, a cit1- zen of the United States, residing at New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Athletic Sandals, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in outer coverings for the feet, and particularly to the type known as sandals as used by athletes, ball players and the like.
The principal object of the invention is to provide a device which is applicable to a relatively wide range of shoe sizes, so that a single pair of sandals may be used in connection with different foot coverings.
A second object is to provide the sandals with integrally formed spurs whereby slipping is prevented, and to further provide the sandals with attaching means whereby the same are held firmly in position, the attachments being easily and quickly made.
These and other like objects are attained by the novel construction and combination of parts hereafter described and shown in the accompanying drawing, forming a material part of this disclosure, and in which Figure 1 is a perspective view showing the upper part of the sandal, together with its engaging means, as applied to an ordinary shoe, the same being indicated by broken lines. and Fig. 2 is another perspective view showing the application of the sandal, looking from the lower side thereof.
The invention comprises a two-part construction, the sole 10 of Which is distinct and separate from the heel 11. there being no direct connection between.
Formed by ordinary press methods from the plate 10 are a plurality of spurs 12, the same being of a shape adapted to engage and enter the surface over which the wearer moves, similar spurs 14 being formed in the heel plate 11. This heel plate has an upturned or flanged front element 15, engageable with the heel of the shoe so as to be held in place thereby, while at the back is another upturned member 17 provided with a slot 18. and adapted to contact with the rear portion of the shoe heel. Side elements 20 are rigidly secured to the heel plate 11 and provided near the upper ends with elongated slots 21 to which are attached straps, respectively 22 and 23, one being provided with a buckle 24 by means of which the ends of the straps may be secured adjustably together, the strap passing over the top of the shoe, above the instep as will be clearly evident. Thus the combination of front plate 15, rear plate 18 and side plates 20, together with the straps, hold the heel plate in a relatively rigid position with re spect of the shoe heel.
At a. point rearward of the toe, firmly engaged with the sole plate 10, is a loop 30 arranged to receive the toe of the shoe, the loop being sui'liciently flexible to suit the shape of the shoe entered therein. Adjacent to the loop 30 and extending slightly rearward are plate elements 31, arranged upon each side of the plate 10 and provided with elongated slots 32 in which are secured other straps 33 and 34, the former being of sufl'icient length to pass from the element 31 over the instep, around the rear of the heel where it is engaged within the slot 18 of the heel plate, turned around the side and engaged with a buckle 85 to the other strap 34 in such a manner as to be adjustably secured to the shoe.
In order to provide against slipping of the front straps, it is preferred that the strap pass through an aperture 36,formed in the strap 34;, the point of intersection being substantially at the top of the instep; thus in addition to the loop 30, the straps 33 and 34: hold the sandal to the shoe in a secure manner.
The operation and application of the invention will be obvious from the foregoing and from inspection of the drawing so that a further detailed description need not be given, while the advantages of the invention will be obvious, particularly to those for whose use the sandals are designed.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Let ters Patent, is
1. In a sandal, the combination with dis tinctly separate heel and sole plates each having depending spurs, upturned edge members formed on said heel plate, the rear and side elements being slotted, straps secured in said side elements, said straps being adapted to pass over the upper front portion of a shoe, of means for adjustably engaging the ends of said straps together, an unbroken loop attached to said sole plate adapted to receive the toe of a shoe, upturned side elements on said sole plate, straps of unequal length engaged therewith, the shorter of said straps having an opening through which the longer is passed, the point of intersection being at the instep, said longer strap being engaged in the rear element of said heel plate and means for adjustably securing the ends of said straps together;
2. In a sandal, the combination With separateheel and sole plates, of spurs formed integrally With said plates, oppositely disposed projections formed with said heel plate adapted to embrace the front, rear and sides of a shoe heel, the rear projection containing-an opening, a loop engaged with said sole plate suited to receive thetoe of a shoe,
Copies of this patent may be obtained for EDWARD STERN.
