A. H. BATTEN; SHOE. APPLIOATION FILED JUNE 1, 1914.
Patented Oct. 20, 1914.
ANNIE n. BATTEN, or PHILADELPHJIIA, P NNSYLVANIA.
anon.
To all whom it may concern. Be it known that L'ANNIE H. BATTEN, a citizen of the United-States, residing in thecity and county of Philadelphia, State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Shoe, of which the following is a specification. 1
My invention consists of a shoe which is made with a division at the rear thereof, whereby a foot may be introduced into the shoe and removed therefrom in a most con:-
venient and easy manner, the same also adapting the shoe to be worn with more comfort and ease than heretofore.
It consists also of means for closing the shoe at said open rear.
The invention is satisfactorily illustrated in the accompanying drawing, but the important instrumentalit'ies thereof may be varied, and so it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the specific details shown and described.
Figure 1 represents a perspective view of a shoe in open condition embodying my in vention. Fig. 2 represent a perspective View of the same in closed condition. Fig. 3 represents a plan view partly broken away of the sole of the shoe and of the member attached thereto adapted to close the open rear division of the shoe. Figs. 4 and 5 rep-- resent rear views of modifications.
Similar numerals of reference indicate cOrreSpondingparts in the figures.
eferring to the drawings :1 designates a shoe, the body of which is divided in its rear in vertical direction so as to form separate walls 2-2, which admit of the opening of the rear of the shoe as in Fig. 1, or the closing of the same as in Fig. 2. Bdesignates the sole of the shoe, the sam being connected with the body of the shoe in anydesirable manner and-extending from the toe to the heel of the shoe, and it is continued rearwardly of the heel to form the tongue 4 which is of pliable material andadapted to be turned-up from what constitutes the heel and caused to enter the shoe and occupy a vertical position in the rear thereof forward of the walls 2 of the division so as to consequently the rearof the shoe.
In order to fasten the divisions and so retain the rear of the: shoe in closed condition, I may em loy the'strap 5 which is buttoned to one o the divisions 2, as at '6, passed :around the rear of the shoe and the tongue I Specification of Letters Patent. Application filed me 1, 1914'. Serial No. 842,031.
close the latter, and

4, and the other division to which it is buttoned as at 7, and its end portions 8 are passed around the sides and front of the body of the shoe and connected by the butten 9, it being seen that the divisions 2 are held together and the tongue retained with in the shoe forward of said'divisions as thecounter andclosure of the rear of the shoe.
In lieu of the strap 5, I may employ the buttons 10 andbuttonholes 11 therefor, the samebeing on opposite divisions 2, 2, or I 'may employ the shoe string 12, which is laced in suitable openings in said divi-- sions 2, 2.
It will be seen that when the fastenings are loosened or released, the divisions may be separated and spread apart, and the tongue lowered, as shown in Fig. 1. Then the foot may be introduced in an easy and most convenient manner into the shoe at the open. rear thereof over the tongue and between the divisions, when said tongue is raised against the heel and rear of the ankle of the foot. Then the divisions are brought together over the tongue and fastened, thus closing the rear of the shoe and permitting the shoe to be worn with ease and comfort, as the rear is pliable and adapted to yield with the motions of the foot in walking. When the divisions are unfa'stened, they may be separated and the tongue lowered, when the foot may be removed from the shoe between the divisions and over the tongue, this being accomplished also in a convenient and easy manner. A suitableinsole 13 may be employed when so desired for evident purposes.
Attention is directed to the fact that the sole and heel of the shoe together with the tongue are formedof a continuous piece of material which may be readily punched-out or out into the shape of the same, when the heel and toe portions may be stitched, or
otherwise secured to the corresponding por- 100 tions of the body of the shoe, leaving the tongue member extending rearward of the heel portion ready to be turned up into said body to close the rear of the latter as has been stated, while the walls of the division back-up said tongue to assist in sustaining the latter in upright position.
Having thus described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Let ters Patent, is
1. A shoe having in its rear a division in vertical direction adapting the walls thereof to be separated laterally, a tongue rising from the heel portion of the sole adapted to enter the body'of the shoe division, said walls being separated at their lower ends from the sole and adapted to back said tongue within said body, and means for securing said walls together at their rear ends.
2. A shoe having in its rear a division in vertical direction adapting the walls thereof to be separated laterally, a tongue adapted to be turned up from the heel of the shoe and enter the body thereof to close said di vision, and a sole, said tongue forming an integral extension of the heel portion of. said sole, and said walls being separated at their lower ends from the sole of the'shoe.
and close said 3. A shoe having in its rear a division in vertical direction adapting the walls thereof to be separated laterally,-a tongue adapted to be turned up from the heel of the shoe and enter the body thereof to close said division, and a sole, said tongue forming an integral extension of the heel portion of said sole, and said walls being separated at their lower ends from the sole of the shoe, the walls of said division being adapted to back said tongue when the latter is in operative position in the body.
