SARAH E. THEOKER, OF GEORGETOWN, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA.
BOOT AND SHOE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters P31781313 No. 231,632, dated August 24, 1880,
Application filed July 13, 1880. (Model) T 0 all whom it may concern Be it known that I, SARAH E. THEOKER, a citizen ofthe United States, residing atGeorgetown,-in the District of Columbia, have invented new and useful Improvements in Boots and Shoes, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to provideimproved means for fastening ladies and chil drens button-shoes, whereby a uniform pressure upon the instep is secured, a neat finish is obtained, and the use of shoe-buttoners is dispensed with.
Prior to my invention boots and shoes have been provided with a lacing consisting of a series of tongues or flaps, respectively sewed on the sides ofthe boot-leg, completelycovering the front side of the ankle, said tongues or flaps being provided at their ends with staples or rings, through which cords were passed for the purpose of tightening the boot-leg, the object being to provide means whereby the front part of the ankle could be more fully wrapped and protected. Such arrangement differs from my invention both in construction and principle, as will now be fully set forth.
My inventionconsists in providing the opposite edges of the flaps, at the opening in the upper of a shoe, with rows of projecting tabs, separated a distance equal to their width, the tabs of one flap being opposite the spaces between the tabs of the other flap, and all said tabs being provided with button-holes, and
'both flaps of the upper having buttons to engage the same, all as more fully hereinafter described.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a shoe provided with my improved fastening. Fig. 2 is a view in detail, illustrating the fastening.
The letter A designates the upper of the shoe, which is open in front, in the usual manner, and from the opposite edges of the flaps, at the opening, project tabs B B, all of which are provided with button-holes to engage rows of buttons 0, secured to the opposite flaps. The tabs of each row are separated by spaces having a width equal to their own, and the tabs of one edge are opposite the spaces of the other, so that when the edges of the flaps are drawn together the tabs of one edge will pass between those of the other and button upon the buttouson the opposite side or flap of the upper. As these tabs are'easily turned to any desired position by the fingers, the use of shoebuttoners is unnecessary.
hen the shoe is fastened a neat appearance of the interlacing is produced, and there is a uniform pressure upon the instep and ankle from the bottom to the top of the row of fastenin gs.
The improved fastening is as well applicable to cloth uppers as to those of leather.
What I claim is g A shoe having the opposite edges of its flaps at the instep-opening in the upper provided with projecting tabs separated a distance equal to their width, the tabs of one flap being opposite the spaces between the tabs of the other flap, all of said tabs being provided with button-holes, and both flaps of the upper having buttons to engage the same.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
