This invention relates to shoes, slippers and other footwear and to methods for making them and more particularly to platform shoes or slippers and shoes or slippers so constructed that their construction is strong and sightly and their method of making on a sewing machine facilitated though it is noted that inksome of the claims the invention is not limited to parts .secured together by stitches, or to platform shoes,
One object of the invention is to provide improved footwear of this kind so constructed that parts to be secured together are easily placed between the pressure foot and feed bed of an ordinary single needle straight stitch or by a zigzag stitch sewing machine.
Other objects of the invention are to provide an improved construction of this kind which enables the shoe to be lasted before applying the platform and outsole and to provide a strong stitch where great strain comes.
Additional objects of the invention are to effect simplicity and efficiency in such methods and footwear and to provide an extremely simple shoe or slipper of this kind which is economical, durable, sightly and reliable in use and economical to manufacture.
Still. other objects of the invention will appear as the description proceeds; and while herein details of the footwear anad method steps and their order are described in the specification and some of the claims, the invention as described in the broader claims is not limited to these, and many and various changes may be made without departing from the scope of the invention as claimed in the broader claims.
n The inventive features for the accomplishment of these and other objects are shown herein in connection with several forms of slipper or shoe each of which briefly stated includes an insole superposed on a platform, and a wrapper having its upper margin disposed adjacent to the insole with the edge of said upper margin inset from thev edge of the platform, the wrapper having its lower margin drawn downwardly around the edge face of the platform and turned inwardly and secured to the margin of the lower face of the platform. A foxing strip or strips forming the lower portion of the upper has an inner margin superposed upon the upper margin of the wrapper; .and stitches passing through the insole, the lower margin of the foxing strip and the upper margin of the wrapper for securing the margins in superposed position and to hold them to the`insole.
\'I'he-"oxing.strip and ari-upper` member having its lower edge secured by lacing, paddingmachine stitching or other means to the upper edge of the foxing strip cooperate to form the shoe or slipper upper; and an outsole is secured to the'lower face of the platform and the lower face of the inturned part of the wrapper.
My improved methods of making footwear include superposing the inner edge of a foxing blank upon the inner edge of a wrapper blank and stitching the superposed edges to the margin of an insole and securing, to the outer edge of the foxing blank, the lower edges of blanks cooperating with the foxing blank to form uppers, after which the footwear may be lasted. A sole-shapedA the lower face of the insole, of the wrapper is drawn around the edge of the platform and secured to the bottom face of the platform, after which an outsole is secured to the bottom face of the platform and said lower margin of the wrapper.
Any suitable or usual leather, skin or other material or contrasting materials may be used for making the wrappers, the upper part of the shoe or slipper uppers and the foxing strip. The construction and method are particularly suitable for making the foxing strip, upper member 'and sock lining of sheep skin Shearling. The wrapper may be made of any suitable leather or material and the platform, outsole and insole and sock lining may also be made of any usual or suitable material.
While particular advantages result from the stitching stated above, it is noted that substitution of cementing or other securing methods, or vice versa, may be made when conditions seem desirable.
In the accompanying drawing showing, by way of example, several of many possible embodiments of the invention,
Fig. 1 shows a side elevation of a slipper or shoe as it appears when made by any of the several methods or constructions herein;
Fig. 2 is a sectional view of one form of construction of the invention with a last therein, the section being taken in a transverse plane located as indicated by the line 2-2 of Fig. 1; and
Figs. 3, 4 and 5 respectively show similarly platform is secured to and the lower margin `located sections of other forms of the invention, Figs. 4 and 5 being fragmentary;
Figs. 6 and 'l are sectional views partly in yelevation showing a step in the method of making the-shoes of Figs. 2 and 3 respectively.
My improved footwear as shown in Figs. 1 and 2 comprises a platform l0 of cork, felt or other material on which is superposed an insole ll of leather, fabric or the like having its margin I2 turned down and disposed against the edge face of the platform. A sock-lining or soleshaped member I3 is secured by cement or stitches I4 or both on the insole with its edge inset from the edges of the platform.
A platform wrapper I5 having its upper margin I6 butting the edge face4 of theV sock lining has. IJ drawn downwardly.A around! they its lower part; margin of the insole and secured to the lower face of the margin of the platform. The margin IZ may be cemented to the wrapper and the edge face of the platform if desiredi A foxing or other strip I8 has its inner margin superposedupcn thel upper margin I6 of the wrapper and'v butting against the edge face of the sock lining I3; and a line of stitches 20 passes throughsaid insole I I', the lower margin of the foxing strip, and the upper margin of the wrapper for securing them all strongly together.
, Upper members 2|, 2l have their lowermargns secured to the upper edge of the foXin'g strip by means of laces 22, constrasting or otherwise, as 1 and 2 or by padding machine stitches. as at 22a in Fig. 3, or by other. means to form the. shoe or slipper uppers; and an outsole 24 is secured to the. lower face of the platform andthe lower face of the lower part of the wrapper.
My improved method of making the. footwear of Figs. 1 and 2` includes placing a sock-lining I3` (Figs. 2 and 6) of4 approximately sole shape, and. of, less than sole length and'width on a. similarly shaped insole. II of greater than sole Width. and length, leaving an exposed upper face of the mar'.- gi'n I 2` of the insole, and securing the edges. of' the thus placed sock-lining to the insole by stitches` I4 or by cement or both. The. inner edges` of, a. foxing blank I8 are superposed upon the inner edge I6 of a wrapper blank andpl'aced' in abutment against the edges of the sock-lining f.
as a guide, the margins being placed between the. pressure-foot 25 (.Fig. 6) and feed bed. 26j and'. dog 2'! of`an ordinary single needle straight stitch sewing machine after whichv the margins.V are stitched together, the line of stitches 2U passing through said blanks I5, I8' and theinsole II, the disposition of the blanks allowing entirely free access of the pressure-foot and feed bed and dog to the blanks and insole.
The outer edge of the foxing blank I8 is. then secured by laces 22 or stitches to the lower'v edges of blanks 2l, 2I cooperating. with the foxing blank to form the shoe or slipper uppers, for lasting by inserting a last 30. in the*I uppers againsta sock-lining I 3'.
The sole-shaped platform lll` is then cemented to the lower face of the insole with the margins of' the insole projecting substantially uniformly beyond the platform. Then the wrapper l is drawn downwardly to force the insole margin I2 against the edge face of the platform, and the lower margin ofthe wrapper I1 is drawn under the platform as in Fig. 2, and cemented to the lower face of the platform after which the outsole 24 is cemented' to the lower face of. the platform and said lower margin I'I` of the wrapper.
The stitches 2li form an extra strong securing means for holding. the strip I3- and the Wrapper marginl IB in place.4
My improved footwear as shownA in Fig. 3com.- prises. a platform` I on which is superposed an insole I. I ay having its edges inset from the edges ,of ther platform. A wrapper Ia having its upper margin I6 abutting the edge face of the insole I'In. has its lower part I1 disposed downwardly around the edge face of the platform and turned inwardly and cemented to the margin of the lower face of the platform I Il. A foxing strip I8 has its inner margin super-posed upon the upper margin of the insole. Zig-zag stitches Illa, a comprise stitches I 4a passing through the edge of the insole, and stitches 20a passing through-.thelower margin. of. they foxing strip and uppennrargin of the wrappelythus securing these margins in superposed relation. The threads 3| of .the zig-zag stitches connect the stitches Ma, 20a together and hold said superposed margins of.` the1 foxingf strip and the wrapper against the edgeroffth'e insole.A
Asock.lining I3a secured by cement, stitches 32 or other means on the insole and over said zigzag' stitches= I'4'a; 20a and an upper member 2l has its lower edge secured by padding machine stitches 22a or other means to the upper edge of the foxing strip I8. AnV outsole 24 is secured to the lower-face ofthe platform and the lower face ofthe inturned part I'T of the Wrapper.
My improved method of making the footwear of'Fig. Z-lincludes the' steps-of superposing the inner edgeofa foxingblank I8 upon the inner edge of-the margin IG of a wrapperblank I5a disposing sa-i'd superposedi'edges in abutment to the edge face of an insole II`aof approximately'sole-shape, and of' less than sole length and width with said blanks substantially in the plane of the insole asin Fig; 7 and placing' the abutting edges between the pressure-foot a, feed dog 27a, and feed plate 26a' of al zig-zag sewing machine, and securing' all' of` said edges together by means of zig-zag stitches, one lineoff'stitches 20a passing through said blanks, the other line Illa passing through the insole. Then the sock lining ISa may be securedover the insole and the zig-zag stitches by cement or by stitches 32 or other means. The stitches3-2 maybe placed through, or
at either side of: the zig-zag stitches.
Next the` outer edgev of the foxing blank I8 may be secured2 to the lower edges of blanks ZI, 2l cooperating with the foxingblank to form uppers; afterV which theshoeI or slipper may be lasted by inserting a last in the uppers against the socle-lining'.
