PATENT OFFICE.
HARRY L. MCM'URQHY, OF BRAMIPTON, ONTARIO, CANADA.
HOCKEY BOOT.
Application filed June 20,
This invention relates to boots used for skating and common ly known as hockey boots, and my object is to devise a strongcoinfortable boot which provides satisfactory protection for the front 01 the foot against the blows of a hockey stick or puck.
l attain my obj ectby constructing the boot with the vamp and quarter joined at each side by butt seams, and by contii'iuing the upper down to the sole outside the vamp and quarter, to both of which it sewn. The tongue is formed as a separate piece secured to the vamp and overlapping the box of the toe. This tongue is formed of heavy flexible sole leather, which is double tanned so that, while it is stiiier than ordinary upper leather, it is not as still and hard as ordinary sole leather. The usual felt pad is provided under the tongue but is extended around the toe. The boot in detail is hereinafter more fully described and is illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which Fig. 1 is a side elevation, partly broken away and partly in section, of aboot constructed in accordance with my invention;
Fig. 2 a horizontal section of the vamp, quarter and upper;
Fig. 3 a front view of the tongue; i
F i a cross section of the upper part of the tongue and Fig. 5 across section of the lower part of the tongue.
In the drawings like numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts in the diilt'erent figures.
The boot is formed with the usual sole and insole. The vamp I1. and quarter 2. are secured to the sole in any known manner. The vamp and quarter are joined to one another at each side by butt scams 3. The upper loverlaps the quarter 9. and has itslower edge secured to the sole. Along its upper edge the quarter is secured to the upper with a line of stitching It will be noted that the upper overlaps the butt scams 3 and is secured at each side to the side of the vamp.
The vamp has integrally formed therewith the short tongue 6. Over this is secured the tongue 7,the other end of which is secured to and over the toe portion of the vamp as well 1927. Serial No. 200,173.
as to the short tongue 6. Under the tongue 7 is secured the felt pad 8, the lower part of which extends down to the insole and forms a lining for the toe of the boot. The tongue 7 is formed of heavy flexible sole leather, which is double tanned so that, while it is stili'er than ordinary upper leather, it is not as still and. hard. as ordinary sole leather.
For comfort and adequate protection it is preferred that the tongue, when in use, should maintain an arched cross section, while necessarily it is longitudinally curved and though, thus doubly curved, it should retain a measure of longitudinal flexibility. I attain the desired result by narrowing the upper part of the tongue, the narrowing beginning approximately at the beginning of the instep. The accomplishment of the desired result is also assisted by skiving the edges of the upper part of the tongue as shown particularly in Fig. 41-.
To strengthen the upper and to prevent it stretching in undesirable directions I secure to the inside of the upper one or more stays 9 ol woven webbing. These stays are sewn to the upper and extend under the quarter, the lower stay extending down to the insole while the upper extends between the counter 10 and the upper at the heel of the boot.
The parts of the boot not particularly concernedwith the invention will be finished in upperlapped over and sewn to the quarter and vamp and connected to the sole; and a tongue having its lower end overlapping and secured to the vamp and extending well over the toe portion thereof.
3. A hockey boot having a tongue of heavy flexible leather having its lower end overlapping and secured to the vamp and extending well. over the toe portion thereof.
4. A hockey boot having a tongue colnpri. ing a ply offlexible leather and 3, ply 01 felt having their upper portions secured together and their lower portions spaced from one an- 5 other, the lower portion of the leather ply be ing of heavier material than the upper portion and extending outside and Well over the toe portion of the boot to form it protective covering therefor, the felt ply extending within and around the toe portion of the shoe. 10
