IMPROVEMENT IN HALF-BOOTS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 142,31?, dated August 26, 1873; application filed october 22,. 1872.
To all. whom it may concern Be it known that I, LYMAN U. WILLIAMS, of La Fayette, in the county of Tippecanoe and Stateot' Indiana, have invented a new and valuable Improvement in Half-Boots; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the construction and operation of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings making a part of this specification, and -to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon.
Figure l of the drawings is a representation of my half-boot in perspective. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the pattern of the leg-piece. Fig. 3 is a plan view of the pattern of the upper.
This invention has relation to the manufae ture of half-boots; and it consists in the construction and novel arrangement of the parts of the upper, whereby conformity to the instep-angle is secured, with facility of construction and economy of leather.
In the accompanying draw-ings, the letter A designates the vamp and quarters, cut in one piece, so that the quarters are fastened to gether by a vertical seam at the rear of the heel. The angular tongue B, formed between the oblique cuts which determine the upper edges of the quarters, is bent upward to form the front of the leg, the back portion being formed by sewing in the quadrangular pieces G. These pieces are of the general form indiv cated in Fig. 2 of the drawings, and are secured together by a vertical seam in rear of the leg. The lower edges of the pieces C are attached to the upper edges ofthe quarters D, while their front edgesv are secured to the edges of the tongue-piece B, which extends up from the angle of the instep. The general .form of the upper A is indicated in Fig. 3 of the drawings, in which it will be seen that the same 'cut which forms the oblique upper edge of the quarter-portion D also forms the edge of the tongue-piece.
Sometimes, when a low-quarter portion is desirable, it may be necessary to remove a small angular slip between the quarter and tongue in cutting the upper, varying the angular part e of the leg-piece C to correspond 5 but this is seldom necessary.
My half-boot possesses, in the ankle portion, all the ease and comfort of the full-boot. By
varying the shape of' the pointed portions of i the legpieces and the distance between the angles where the tongue diverges from thequarter portions, the. boot may be readily made to conform to the shape of this portion Witnesses:
