JOHN H. WALLACE, OF GLOVERSVILLE, NEW YORK.
SLIPPER-SOLE.
Application filed December s, 1915.
To Iall lwhom t may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN H. WALLACE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Gloversville, in the county of Fulton and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Slipper- Soles; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates to improvements in boudoir slippers patented by me on May 25, 1915 by Letters Patent numbered 1,140,639 and consists of the novel features hereinafter described, reference being had to the accompanying drawings in which I have shown two embodiments of my invention selected by me for purposes of illustration and the said invention is fully disclosed in the following description and claims.
Referring to the drawings, Figure 1 is a side view of my improved sole and heel for use in making boudoir or toilet slippers. Fig. 2 is a vertical longitudinal sectional view of the same. Fig. 3 is an enlarged transverse vertical sectional view taken on line 3 3 of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is a similar view taken on line 4 4 of Fig. 1. Fig. 5 is an enlarged vertical longitudinal sectional view of a modified form of sole and heel, the toe portion of said sole being broken away.
It is desirable in the manufacture of boudoir or toilet slippers that as little as possible of the edge of the sole proper should be exposed to view, in order that a neat and dainty appearance may be presented, and it is to accomplish this that I have devised the improvements, which form the subject matter of the present application.
The object of my invention is to provide a sole having the sole proper or wearing tread, partly concealed for the purpose of neatness and so constructed that the same may be secured to the heel, after the soft inner sole has been fastened to the sole proper.
Another object of my invention is to so bind the edges of the soft inner sole and the upper layer of the sole proper that the edge of the lower layer only of the sole will be visible and that no part of the leather edge of the sole of the slipper can be seen above the heel thereof.
A furtherobject is to provide means in a sole of this character, for removably plac- Specicaton of Letters Patent.
Patented June 6, 1916.
Serial No. 65,668.
ing a cushion pad between the outer and inner soles above the heel.
With the foregoing general objects outlined, and with other objects in view, which will be apparent as the nature of the invention is better understood, the present invenwithout departing from the spirit of the invention.
In the drawings, 1 designates my improved sole, which may be made of any suitable material, but preferably consists of an upper layer 2 of leather board and a bottom layer 3 of leather. An inner soft sole 4 is secured along its edge, with the exception of the portion which extends over the heel, to the sole by means of stitching 5. In making up a sole of this type, the edge of the heel portion of the soft inner sole 4 is first bound with a binding strip 6,' then the layers 2 and 3 are secured together with the exception of their edges preparatory to sewing by suitable adhesive. A shank stiffener 7 is then glued to the upper surface of the upper layer 2 and the soft inner sole is applied to the upper layer. A binding strip 8 is then placed around the edges of the soft inner sole 4 and the upper layer 2, with the exception of the heel portion and is secured by the stitching 5, which passes through the parts 2, 3, 4 and 8. After the soft inner sole 4 has been secured to the sole 1 up to the heel portion, the binding strip 8 which by this time has concealed the ends of the heel binding strip 6, is deflected from the soft inner sole vand continued around the edge of the heel portion of the upperL layer 2 for the purpose of concealing the same. The sole is then ready to be fastened to the heel 9.
The heel comprises a block 1() which is cut in any desired shape and is preferably covered with materialll of the same color as that of the upper surface of the soft inner sole and the binding strips. The bottom of the heel is preferably provided with a leather piece 12 and the'top of said heel is recessed at 13 to accommodate the rear end of the sole 1, which is countersunk into said recess with the binding strip 8 just visible above the top of the heel. The sole proper with its soft inner sole attached, is secured to said heel by means of tacks 14 and glue. By reason of the soft inner sole being unattached at the heel, the flap formed thereby may be raised and the sole secured to the heel Without the tacks passing through the inner sole el and a pad (not shown) may be placed between the sole and the soft inner sole, to form a heel cushion. rihis heel cushion may be renewed, as will be apparent,
'when it has lost its elasticity.
in the modification shovvn in Fig. 5, the heel l5 has the upper portion of its front curved as shown at 1G and the rear portion of the lower layer 17 of the sole, instead of resting on top of the heel as in Figs. l to il, is extended to form a. facing 1S, 1which will add to the attractiveness of the finished article.
After purchasing a pair of the soles and heels constructed as above set forth, suitable uppers may be provided and stitched to the binding strips and as these uppers are generally the color of the heel covering, a dainty and neat pair of slippers may be provided.
What l claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is l. An article of manufacture comprising a sole consisting of two layers, a soft inner sole secured to said sole along a portion of its length, the heel portion of said inner sole being unsecured to said sole, a binding strip secured around the edge of the heel portion of said inner sole, another binding strip provided around the edges of the secured portions of the soft inner sole and the top layer of the sole for concealing the edges of the same, and a heel secured to the sole beneath the unsecured portion of the inner sole.
2. An article of manufacture comprising a sole consistingof two layers, a soft inner sole secured to said sole along a portion of its length, the heel portion of said inner soie being unsecured to said sole, a binding strip provided around the edge of the heel portion of the inner sole and terminating at the front of the heel, another binding strip provided around the edges of the secured portions of the soft inner sole and the top layer of the sole for concealing the edges of the saine, said last `named binding strip also concealing the ends ofthe other binding strip and being deiiected rearwardly thereof and continuing around the heel portion of the upper layer only, and a heel secured to the sole beneath the unsecured portion of the inner sole.
3. An article of manufacture comprising a sole consisting of tivo layers, a soft inner sole secured to said sole along a portion of its length7 the heel portion of said inner sole being unsecured to said sole, a binding strip secured around the edge of the heel portion of said inner sole, another binding strip provided around. the edges of the secured portions of the soft inner sole and the top layer of the sole` for concealing the edges of the same, and a heel secured to the sole beneath the unsecured portion of the inner sole provided with a curved front, the lower layer of the sole having its rear portion extending down over the front face of said heel. l
In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
JOHN H. WALLACE.
