TURNED SHOE Filed July 2, 1931 FDJ @y if Faye? i? nvenlor efrjge 14K wb/@y f (lorney Patented Mar. 6, 1934 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 4 Claims.

The object of this invention is to provide a new and improved turned shoe and a process or method for making the same, said shoe being made more especially for infants and children.

Another object of the invention is to make a shoe in which the edge of the sole on the side that is intended to be inside the shoe as the shoe is worn is skived, the sole at a suitable distance from the margin thereof on the side that is intended for the bottom of the sole as the shoe is worn being grooved. The groove is located slightly inside of the outer edge of the blank of the sole.

Another object of the invention is to arrange the parts so that the upper and sole can be stitched together in reverse position, the edge of the upper being stitched directly to the outer edge of the sole, the seam being located near the outer edge of the skived portion of the sole and outside of the groove.

Another object of the invention is to thereafter turn the shoe so that the skived portion of the sole will be inside of the shoe and the groove will be at the edge of the bottom of the sole of the shoe and that part of the sole that is beyond the outside of the groove will be turned up and over inwardly, protecting the seam which joins the sole and upper. The edges of the inwardly turned sole and upper form a rim which is adapted to hold in place the insole of the shoe which can then be inserted therein. To secure this result the blank for the sole must be made somewhat larger than the sole as it will appear at the bottom or tread of the nished shoe.

These and other objects of the invention will be illustrated in the drawing, described in the specification and pointed out in the claims at the end thereof.

In the drawing:

Figure l is a side elevation of the nished shoe.

Figure 2 is a bottom plan View of the sole of the shoe with the grooved side or the bottom side of the sole turned up.

Figure 3 is a vertical section through Figure 2 on the line 3:1: 3x, the section being somewhat enlarged.

Figure 4 is a section through the shoe showing the upper and sole of the shoe joined together, before the shoe is turned.

Figure 5 is a section through the shoe after the shoe is turned and the insole inserted.

In the drawing like reference numerals indicate like parts.

In the drawing reference numeral l indicates the sole of the shoe and 2 indicates the upper of the shoe. The sole of the shoe is skived as indicated at 3 by cutting oi the corner edge of the sole on one side thereof, so as to form a bevel thereon. This beveling or skiving is done clear around the edge of the sole on the side that will form the top or inside surface of the sole of the 60 shoe. On the other side of the sole a groove 4 is cut, which groove extends clear around the sole as shown in Figure 2. The inner side of this groove 4 is substantially vertical and the outer side of the groove is beveled, the groove 66 having substantially the acute angle of a right triangle. This vertical side of the groove becomes the outer edge of the sole in the finished shoe as shown in Figure 5.

The upper is attached to the sole by stitching 'I0 the outer edge 5 thereof to that portion of the sole 6 that is outside of the groove 4 by a seam 7.

The shoe is then turned so as to bring the upper and sole to their ultimate or nal position in the shoe; that is with the bottom or outside of the sole on the outside or bottom of the shoe and the outside of the upper exposed on the top of the shoe which final positions are shown in Figure 5 and are the reverse of those shown in Figure 4.

In turning the shoe, the flange 8.or edge that has been formed around the sole of the shoe by the skiving at 3 and the groove 4 will be turned up and over, and as shown in Figure 5 the lower edge of the upper will also be turned in and these two parts stitched together will form a rim around a5 the edge of the sole extending inwardly therefrom, which is adapted to receive and hold in place the insole 9 which can be inserted thereafter. The shoe so made has the appearance of having a heavy outsole. The construction described may be modified without departing from the fundamental features of the invention.

I claim:

1. A turned shoe comprising an upper and a one piece sole, one face of the edge of said sole being beveled and the other face of said edge being grooved, said beveled and grooved edge forming an upper attaching lip which is inturned above the sole body and to which the inturned margin of theupper is secured by stitching.

2. A turned shoe comprising an upper and a one piece sole, one face of the edge of said sole being beveled and the other face of said edge being grooved, said beveled and grooved edge forming an upper attaching lip which is inturned 10.; above the sole body and to which the inturned margin of the upper is secured by stitching, the material exposed on the inside of the groove being exposed as the edge of the sole in the nished shoe.

3. A turned shoe comprising an upper and a 110 one pi'e'ce sole, one face of the edge of said sole being beveledv and the other face of said edge being grooved, said beveled and grooved edge forming an upper attaching lip which is inturned above the sole body and to which the inturned margin of the upper is secured by stitching,- the material exposed on the inside of the groove being exposed as the edge of the sole in the finished shoe, the beveled edge of the sole being turned in 1o with the i'nturned edge of the upper.

4. The method of making footwear which comlon
