PATE'T DANIEL B. RANNEY, OF GOLDEN, COLORADO.
IMPROVEMENT lN OVERSHOES OR SANDALS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 211,784, dated January 28, 1879 application filed November 30, 1878.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, DANIEL B. RANNEY, of Golden, in the county of Jefferson and State of Colorado, have invented a new and Improved Overshoe or Sandal, of which the following is a specification:
The object of my invention is to furnish an overshoe or half-overshoe adapted for attachment to childrens or ladies shoes for their protection or repair.
The invention consists in a half-sole and cap, the former provided with clasps adjustably secured in slots in the said sole, and the latter provided with lacing, whereby a halfovcrshoe or sandal is formed, that can be easily .put on or off and secured firmly in place when in use.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a top View of my improved overshoe. Fig. 2 is a sectional side elevation. Fig.3 is a crosssection.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
a is a piece of heavy leather-such as soleleather-cut in the shape of a half-sole. At the toe end of piece a a cap-piece, b, is attached by sewing at its edges. This cap-piece b is divided at the center and formed with eyeletholes along the edges of the cut for a lacing, c, by which the piece can be drawn tightly upon the toe of a shoe upon which it is placed.
At each side of half-sole a are two clasps, d,
that are fitted in inclined slots 6, so as to slide therein, and each clasp d is bent in a shape to take upon the edge of the permanent sole of a shoe when the ovcrshoe is applied thereto, and retain sole to in place. By moving the clasps in their inclined slots e,'they are adapted to shoes of different sizes.
The dotted lines in Fig. 2 illustrate the manner of applying the overshoe. By its use the toe and sole of the main shoe are protected from wear, and it also protects the foot of the wearer from dampness, making the device useful for applying to shoes with thin solessuch as are worn by ladies. The overshoe being inexpensive can be applied to light shoes to take the wear, and removed when the wearer is indoors. It can be quickly applied or taken off, and is free from the objectionable features of rubber overshoes.
Having thus described my invention,Iclaim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent-- Theovershoe or sandal shown and described, consisting of the sole-piece a and laced toe or cap I), the former provided with clasps (1, adjustably secured in the diagonal slots 0, for the purposes specified.
DANIEL BRISTOL RANNEY.
