Application filed May 81, 1911. Serial No. 680,482.
To a'll'whomz't may concern:
'Be itknown that I, DEROY AUSTIN, a
dent of Omaha, in the county of Douglas 1 and State of Nebraska,- have invented cer-' tain new and useful Improvements in Shoes,
My invention relates to the manufacture of shoes or. footwear, and especially to the constructionand arrangement .of insoles therein. 1 Q
It is the object of my invention to pro- 1 7 vide a shoe having a flexiblesole of graduareillustrated in the accompanying drawally increasing hardness from its inner to .its .outer part so that while the material adjoining thefootmay be very soft and resilient the outer portions of the sole may liave sufiicient hardness and strength tomake-a durable structure. 4 I
g A, further object of my invention is to provide a cushion-soled shoe in which the.
-cushioning material is preventedfrom dislacement without the use of seams adjoinmg the foot.
Constructions embodying my invention ings, inv which-.-
- Figure 1 is a transverse section of a shoe constructed in accordance .with; my invention, Figs. 2,, 3 and 4' are transverse sectional views showing different stages in the construction of the insole, and Fig. 5 is a my invention I provide anoutsole '1, upper v and arrangement.
detail showing a form' of'welt-featherdifferent from that in Fig. 1 Y
V In constructinga shoe in accordance with 2 and" welt 3 of/ordinary form, material The insole is a' composite'structure consisting of alternate lay- 'ers of felt and canvas or. strong fabric. A relat1vely soft and loose piece of felt is used for the upper layer 4, andthe same is confined between the inner'and intermediate sheets of canvas, 5 and 6,. respectively. .The
lower or outer felt layer 7 is relatively hard and compact, preferably the grade own as piano felt. canvas sheet 8 is preferably placed under the lower felt layer and said canvas or fabric sheet may be one impregnated with rubber and vulcanized so as tobe waterproof. A sheet 90f soft leather such as kid is placed over theinner'canvas sheet 5 to form a cover or sock-lining.
In making up th'insole the layer of'soft felt, 4, is placed betweenthe canvas sheets 5 and (Band the three sheets'secured ' tothe sheets 5 and 6, .is prevente gether by a plurality of seams 10, as shown seam 11 disposed beyond the edge of the' felt sheet, as shownin Fig.3. The edges *of-the canvas sheets 5 and 6 are extended i beyond the felt sheet 4 far enough to enable them to be carried down over the edges of, the hard felt sheet 7, as shown in Fig. 4, sothat in makingethe welt-seam 12 the same may pass through said down-turned edges. The Wale or welt-feather is thus formed by the edges of the canvas sheets 5, 6 and 8- and a portion of the felt sheet 7, of which the'edge may be turned'down'as shown in Figs. 1 and'4, or ma' have an incision made in the lower side t ereof so as to form' a marginal lip or flange through which the welt-seam is passed as shown in Fig. 5
It will be seen' that when the insole is in place in the shoe, the edges of the kid lining 9. are drawn down around the edges of the felt sheet 4 so that theseam 11 is not 'eX-' posed, and as the seams 10 are covered by the sheet 9 there are -no stitches visible on the inside of the shoe. The soft felt,being securely held by the stitchin 10 between from bunching up and being displaced when the shoeis wot-11.". The hard felt sheet 7, while contributing materially to the softness and flexibility of the sole, is sufliciently com act to resist any tendency to displace portions of the material and cause bunches or'lumps therein.
constructed'as shown is soft and yielding to the foot, and extremely flexible, yet the structure is one which is strong and durable,
It will thus be seen that while the shoe I having the transverse strength not only of f the hard felt sheet 7 but also of the fabric sheets, especially the intermediate or. outer sheets 6 and 8.-
Now, having k described my invention,
and lowerv what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is: I
1. Ina shoe, an insole comprising alter-- nate layers of felt and fabric, the different H layers of felt being of dififerent'hardness, and a'welt-seam passing through oneof the layers of felt and :rplurality of the layers I of fabric.
2. In. a shoe, an insolecomprising alternate layers of felt and fabric, the outer layer of felt being harder than the inner layer, and a welt-seam passing through the of hard felt, a layer of soft layer of hard felt and the edges of the fabric layers.
fabric disposed between the. layers of feltand on each side thereof,'and a welt-seam passing through the layer of hard felt and all the layers of fabric. I
5. In a shoe, the combination with an upper and a welt, of an insole having an infelt.
ner layer of felt, layers of fabric on each side thereof and stitched thereto, an outer layer of felt, and a seam passing throughand securing together the welt, the upper, the layers of fa ric and the 'outer layer of 6. Ina shoe, the combination with an upper and a welt, of an insole having an in ner portion, an intermediate fabric por- ',tion, and an-outer felt portion, a seam se- Witnesses:
' Looaees curing the inner portion to the intermediate fabric portion, and a seam passing. through and securing together the welt, t e upper,r the intermediate fabric portion and the' 'outer felt portion.
7. In a shoe, the combination with anupper and awelt, of an insole oomprisingafelt portion, a fabric portion disposed above the felt portion, and an inner portion disposed over the fabric portion, a seam securing the edge of the inner ppgtion to the fabric only, the edges "of thefabric portion being turned down over the edges 0f the'felt portion, and
a seam passing through and securing together the welt, the upper, the ed es of the fabric ,portion, and the edges 0 the felt portion.
In testlmony whereo-f I have hereunto subscribed my name wltnesses.
