  • the present, inventlon enables the shoe to have a higher heel than that of known shoes of the same maximum 1 thickness of the bottom of the forward part of the shoe, thus obviating the necessity to resort to massive and ungainly platforms or other ex eesslve thickness of the shoe bottom in order to increase the height of the heel.
  • Fig. 1 is a side perspective view of a shoe embodying the present invention, with a part of the upper cut away and with the forward part of the bottom of the shoe in section;
  • Fig. 2 is a side view of a shoe, showing an alternative form of the invention
  • Fig. 3 is a perspective view of a last on which the shoe may be made:
  • Fig. 4 is a schematic or diagrammatic view 11-- lustrating the height of the heel of the shoe of the present invention in comparison with the heights of heels of other shoes of known constructions.
  • the mid sole ll which may be made of felt, cork or other suitable material, tapers in thickness toward the toe of the shoe and preferably the forward edge 20 of said lnid .sole is very thin and merges into the plane of the upper surface of the outsole ii.
  • the inner surface of the bottom of the shoe is provided with a rounded concave portion 22 to receive the ball portion of the wearers foot.
  • said concavity is shaped to conform to the ball portion of the foot.
  • This concave ball portion of the shoe bottom is preferably formed by providing the intermediate raised or rounded convex portion 24 which is preferably formed by a layer of shoe filler material such as, for example, but without limitation. ground cork with a suitable binding agent. It will be understood that said raised portion may be formed as an integral part of the mid sole.
  • a last L adapted for making the shoe.
  • the bottom of said last is provided with a rounded convexity 22A corresponding to the rounded concave ball portion 22 and
  • the mid sole I4 and the raised portion 24. cemented thereto are placed on the bottom of the last and temporarily secured in position. Thereafter, the upper is lasted and the lasting allowance thereof is lasted in under the mid sole and secured by cement or in any other suitable way. Thereafter the outsole and heel are applied and secured by cement or in any other suitable way, after which the shoe is finished in the usual way and the insole orsock lining It is ihsel'ted.
  • the same procedure may be followed in making the shoe with the mid sole disposed externally .of the upper, except that in such case the mid sole ll with the raised portion 24 secured thereto are applied and secured to the lasting allowance ofthe upper after the upper is applied and shaped to the last. Also it will be understood that in either case, the inner sole may bev applied to the bottom of the last before the upper and the mid sole are assembled on the last.
  • the weight of the wearer is supported mainly, if not entirely, by the ball portion of the foot and by the heel of the foot, with the wearer's weight mainly on the ball portion of the foot, and with little or no weight on the shank of the shoe. and hence little or no pressure on the arch of the foot.
