- In
figures 1 to 3 , ashoe 1 according to the invention is represented. The shoe has ashoe sole 2 that is constructed of resilient materials that are typically employed in the constructions of the soles of athletic shoes. The sole 2 can be constructed with an outsole, a midsole, and an insert, as is typical. Theshoe 1 has a length that extends from arear heel end 3 to afront toe end 4 of the sole, and theshoe 1 has a width between aleft side 5 and a right side 6 of theshoe sole 2. A shoe upper 7 is secured to the shoe sole 2 extending upwardly from the shoe sole, as is conventional. The upper 7 is constructed of a flexible material, for example leather or fabric. The upper 7 extends upwardly, around the front part of the shoe sole top surface, from the right side of the heel (where it is called upper right side 8) around the toe end of the shoe sole (where it is called vamp 9), until the left side of the heel (where it is called upper left side 10). Conversely to conventional shoe, the upper does not surround theheel end 3 of theshoe sole 2. The upper 7 presents upwardly a left freerear edge 11 and a right freerear edge 12 separated by a space having a width corresponding about to the width of the heel. Arear tongue 13 is affixed to this part of theshoe sole 2. Saidtongue 13 extends upwardly, its width is such that it extends close to the right freerear edge 12 of the upper 7 from one side and close to the left freerear edge 11 of the upper 7 in the other side. Saidrear tongue 13 can move independently of the upper 7, functioning like a conventional tongue. - The upper
left portion 10, the upper right portion 8 and therear tongue 13 extend upwardly from theshoe sole 2 and define anankle opening 14 into the shoe interior. Saidankle opening 14 is also called the shoe collar. - The upper
left side 10 extends upwardly from the shoe sole left side to an upperleft side edge 15. The upper right side 8 extends upwardly from the shoe sole right side to an upperright side edge 16. As seen in the drawing figures, the upperleft side edge 15 and the upperright side edge 16 extend forwardly from opposite sides of the upper collar edge 38 toward thefront toe end 4 of the shoe sole. The length of the upperleft side edge 15 and the upperright side edge 16 define a forefoot opening 17 in the shoe upper 7 that opens to theshoe interior 18. - The shoe upper 7 includes a
vamp 9 positioned rearwardly of thetoe end 4, and atongue 19 that extends rearwardly from thevamp 9. Thetongue 16 extends along the lengths of the upperleft side 10 and the upper right side 8 to a distal end of thetongue 19. Thetongue 19 has a width between aleft side edge 20 and aright side edge 21 of the tongue. The length and width of the tongue position the tongue side edges 20, 21 beneath the upperleft side 10 and the upper right side 8 and extend the tongue over the forefoot opening 17 of theshoe 1. - A plurality of lacing
openings 22 are provided on the upperleft side 10 and the upper right side 8. These lacingopenings 22 are intended to be occupied by a portion of the lacing 23 that closes the shoe upper 7 over the forefoot opening 17 of the shoe. The lacingopenings 22 can be for example D-rings or speed lacing hooks. However, in the preferred embodiment of the invention, the lacingopenings 22 are provided by pluralities of eyelets or grommets on the upperleft side 10 and the upper right side 8. The eyelets provide the desired lace up shoe appearance. Theeyelet lacing openings 22 are arranged in lines along the upperleft side edge 10 and along the upper right side edge 8. As seen in the drawing figures, the lacingopenings 22 extend substantially the entire lengths of the upperleft side edge 10 and the upper right side edge 8 between the upper collar edge and the upper toe end. - As represented in
figures 2 and3 , a plurality of lacingopenings 24, 25 are also provided on the left freerear edge 11 of the upper and on the right freerear edge 12 of the upper. Said plurality of lacingopenings 24, 25 are provided on a double range. A first range is disposed near the free end and the other one more inwardly. The first range ofopenings 24 may follow the curve of the heel. The openings 25 which are disposed more inwardly are intended to be placed at the level of themalleolus 25a of the wearer's foot and at the level of theankle 25b of the wearer. These lacingopenings 24, 25 are intended to be occupied by a portion of the lacing 26 that closes the shoe upper 7 around the heel, allowing to adjust the position of the foot in the shoe. - The presence of the
rear tongue 13 enables theankle opening 14 of theshoe 1 to be enlarged when inserting the foot into the shoe. The shoe wearer merely pulls rearwardly on therear tongue 13 adjacent the tongue distal end to push it as represented by the arrow onfigure 1 . The shoe wearer then slips its foot along therear tongue 13 into theshoe interior 18 beneath thetongue 19. With the foot inserted in the shoe interior, theelastic lace 26 forces therear tongue 13 against the wearer's ankle. - Of course, if elastic lace is also provided on the forefoot part of the shoe, when the wearer's foot is slipping inside the shoe, the
tongue 19 is pushed upwardly and thanks to theelastic lace 23, when the foot is completely inserted inside the shoe, the tongue is forced against the foot. - Thus, the novel construction of the article of footwear provides a lace up article of footwear that is securely held to a shoe wearer's foot without the need for lacing, and provides the comfort and the desired appearance of a lace up article of footwear.
