- My invention relates generally to footwear, and more particularly to a novel type of women's slippers known as mules, and more especially to the heel and sole structure thereof and methods of forming such heel and sole.
- the objects of my invention are, among other things, to provide a. novel and improved heel and sole construction inslippers of this type whereby the edge of the sole is drawn under the .heel and there secured to furnish a finished even outline around the heel; also a novel form of slipper in which the'sole padding extends under the heel and is secured thereto by the margin of the heel cover that is superposed over and cemented to the sole padding to secure an even outline; also a' slipper having its heel cover cemented to the shank portion of the sole padding with that portion'of the upper adjacent to the shank extending inwardly over the shank porshank of the slipper.
- Further objects of my invention also include a novel form of slipper heel construction which :embodies a cushion or padding both on the top and bottom of the heel that make such slipper both noiseless and comfortable when worn even though a hard heel is used; also to provide a slipper having a heel that is cupped or hollowed out to permit the cushion or padded insole or sock lining to form a depression for the heel of the foot thereby preventing the slipper heel from running over when the slipper is Worn.
- a further object of my invention is to provide an exceptionally simple but highly effective and long-wearing slipper heel construction which may be economically manufactured and which will retain its proper shape and contour in use.

SHOE AND METHOD OF MAKING SAME Filed Dec. 9, 1937 ATTORNEY.
Patented Oct. 3, 1939 UNITED STATES? PATENT OFFICE .John E. Disch,. Dolgeville, N. Y., assignor to Daniel Green Company, Dolgeville, N. Y., a corporation of Massachusetts Application December 9, 1937, Serial No. 178,859
8 Claims.
My invention relates generally to footwear, and more particularly to a novel type of women's slippers known as mules, and more especially to the heel and sole structure thereof and methods of forming such heel and sole.
The objects of my invention are, among other things, to provide a. novel and improved heel and sole construction inslippers of this type whereby the edge of the sole is drawn under the .heel and there secured to furnish a finished even outline around the heel; also a novel form of slipper in which the'sole padding extends under the heel and is secured thereto by the margin of the heel cover that is superposed over and cemented to the sole padding to secure an even outline; also a' slipper having its heel cover cemented to the shank portion of the sole padding with that portion'of the upper adjacent to the shank extending inwardly over the shank porshank of the slipper.
Further objects of my invention also include a novel form of slipper heel construction which :embodies a cushion or padding both on the top and bottom of the heel that make such slipper both noiseless and comfortable when worn even though a hard heel is used; also to provide a slipper having a heel that is cupped or hollowed out to permit the cushion or padded insole or sock lining to form a depression for the heel of the foot thereby preventing the slipper heel from running over when the slipper is Worn.
A further object of my invention is to provide an exceptionally simple but highly effective and long-wearing slipper heel construction which may be economically manufactured and which will retain its proper shape and contour in use.
Other objects and advantages will appear from the following description when taken with'the annexed drawing in which:
Fig. 1 is a top plan view of the type of slipper embodying my improved heel and sole construction;
Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the heel and shank portion;
Fig. 3 is a top plan view of the heel portion illustrated in Fig. 2 and shmm'ng the assembling of the parts in the first step in forming the heel;
Figs. 4, 5 and 6 are detail sectional views showing the successive steps in uniting the parts informing the heel from Fig. 3 to Fig. 7;
Fig. 7 is a top plan view, partly broken away,
to show the position'of the partsforming the.
heel after the margin of the heel cover is cemerited to the shank;
Fig. 8 is a; sectional viewof Fig. 7 but having the sock lining or inner solecemented to the heel; and
Fig. 9 is a plan view of the heel and shank portion of the slipper as shown in Fig. 1, but broken away at portions to show the arrangement and union of the parts beneath the inner sole.
Similar numerals refer to similar parts throughout the several figures.
Referring to the drawing, I take the heel cover l2 (Fig. 3), and place same in a suitable sewing machine and a few stitches 13 are taken through the upper edge margin of the outer sole H and the inner edge margin of the heel cover I2 as shown in Fig. 3 to unite the heel cover l2 to the edge of the outer sole ll about one-quarter of an inch from such heel cover edge. Then the outer edge M of the sole is placed in-line with the stitching l3 and the'stitching I3 is continued to the left along the outer edge I4 as shown in Fig. 3. The heel cover 12 is pulled lengthwise in the line of stitching'during this stitching operation to take out any fullness of the material that may be produced when the sole edge I4 is turned inwardly (Figs. 343) to form the finished edge on the outside of the outer sole H as shown in Fig. 2.
After the sole padding H) has been cemented or otherwise secured in place over the outer sole H, the sole edge I4 is turned. in against the padding I0, and then the quarter inch margin I5 of the heel cover I2 formed by the stitching l3 out of the outer margin of the heel cover 12 is cemented on top of the solepadding ID as shown in Fig. 4.
The heel core l6 that may be a hair felt padding as shown in Fig. 5, or if a hard heel is desired, such core I6 may be made of wood to preserve the even outline of the heel when the heel cover I2 is pulled over the heel and cemented thereto, is cemented or secured to the sole padding l0 and margin of the heel cover i 2 as shown in Figs. 5 and 6. The outer edge of the heel core I6 is preferably in substantial alinement with the rounded edge of the outer sole II as shown in Figs. 2, hand 6.
I then pull the heel cover' l2 upwardly and around the heel core l6 as shown in Fig. 6, and the upper margin of such heel cover I2 is then pulled over to the top of the heel core l6 and is cemented to the heel core 16 and the shank portion I! of-the slipper as shown in Fig. 7. Then the rearward extension strips l8 of the upper 10 in Figs. 1 and 2.
From the foregoing description it will be noted that I have provided a novel and improved heel and sole construction for a slipper by which the heel core is protected by a cover that extends in- 15 wardly over the heel core between the sole padding and inner sole, which cover extends: forwardly into the shank of the slipper and is secured in place by parts of the upper that extend over the heel cover and core to secure firm arch 20 supports with that portion of the upper to which the usual trim is fastened, and the parts of the upper are firmly bonded between the heel itself and the inner sole I9. Such heel and sole construction as hereinbefore described effectively 25 maintains the contour of the slipper and also prevents spreading or other distortion when worn, so that these factors add materially in keeping the heel and sole in proper shape with correspondingly longer life in such slippers as 30 i used.
