SHOE.
Application filed November 15, 1927; Serial No. 233,461.
This invention relates to shoes and one object of the invention is to provide a shoe which will be neat in appearance and be prevented from applying pressure to a corn or bunion.
Another object of the invention is to provide the shoe with side openings in spaced relation to its toe in order to relieve a corn or bunion from pressure and to brace the portions of the shoe having the openings cut therein in order to cause the shoe to retain its proper shape and prevent the 11 per from being torn along the margins o the openings.
The invention is illustrated in the ac companying drawing, wherein Figure 1 is a view in side elevation showing a shoe of the improved construction;
Fig. 2 is a top plan view of the shoe shown in Fig. 1, and
Fig. 3 is a top plan view showing a slightly modified form of shoe.
The shoe, shown in Figs. 1 and 2 and indicated in general by the numeral 1, is a low quarter shoe, but it will be understood that the invention could be illustrated in connection with a high shoe or a slipper. This shoe includes a sole 2, an upper 3 having its marginal ortions secured to the sole and a heel 4. The upper may be provided with a tip 5 upon its toe portion or the tip may be omitted. The side portions of the upper have openings 6 formed therein which are formed in spaced relation to the rear edge of the tip 5 and separated from each other by the portion 7 of the upper in front of the binding strips 8 through which the laces 9 are passed. If desired, the portion 7 of the upper between the openings may have its sides fluted so as to add to the attractiveness of the shoe. It should be noted that the lower or outer side edges of the openings terminate in spaced relation to the sole in order to provide upstanding lips or strips 10 which serve to prevent a foot from moving transversely out of proper position in the shoe. In view of the .fact that the upper has side openings formed in it, pressure upon a corn or bunion will be prevented and, therefore, the shoe will be comfortable to wear. 7
In order to brace the shoe and prevent the forward ends of the portions 10 from being torn loose and also prevent a portion of a foot from moving through either of the openings out of its proper position in the shoe, there has been provided bracing strips 11 which extend diagonally across the openings with their lower ends secured adjacent the forward ends of the portions 10, as shown at 12. These strips extend upwardly and rearwardly in converging relation to each other, as shown in Fig. 2, and
V have their upper ends secured close to each other upon the lower forward ends of the bindings 8 adjacent the rear end of the portion 7, as shown at 13. The lower ends of these strips extend forwardly beyond the forward ends of the portions 10 and, therefore, the portions 10 will have their forward ends reinforced and prevented from easily tearing loose from the toe portion of the upper. The strips 11 by extending diagonally'across the openings will prevent a portion of a foot from moving transversely out of its proper position within the shoe and they will also serve to prevent the forward portion of the shoe from being bent downwardly out of its proper position.
-It will thus be seen that the shoe will be comfortable to wear and at the same time will be neat in its appearance and not liable to be easily distorted or torn.
The shoe, which is shown in Fig. 3 and indicated in general by the numeral 14, is similar in construction to the shoe shown in Figs. 1 and 2 and is formed with openings 15, corresponding to the openings 6, and separated from each other by a longitudinally extending portion 16 and terminating in spaced relation to the sides of the sole to provide bordering strips 17 corresponding to the strips 10. The only diiference between the form of shoe illustrated in Fig. 3 and the form shown in Figs. 1 and2 is that in Fig. 3 the bracing strips 11 are omitted.
Having thus described the invention, I claim:
A shoe comprising a sole and an upper, said upper having openings formed in its side portions in spaced relation to the toe cured adjacent the forward ends of the marginal strips and their upper ends convergin and secured to the upper at the 10 rear 0 and between the opemngs;
In testimony whereof I aifix my signature.
