. WILLIAM J. BARBER, OF WALLINGFORD, CONNECTICUT.
SKATING-SHOE.
SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 254,257, dated February 28, 1882.
Application filed August 15, 1881.
1' 0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, WILLIAM J. BARBER, of Wallingford, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have invented a new and usefullmprovementin Skating-Shoes, ofwhich the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
The objectof my invention is to obviate some of the inconveniences and increase the comfort of skating in the respects of apply ing and wearing the skates and the exclusion of dampness and cold from the feet.
The invention consists in a combined overshoe and skate, which, being readily applied over an ordinary boot or shoe, and being also water-proofand lined with flannel, is worn with ease and comfort.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a sectional side view of the combined overshoe and skate, and Fig. 2 is a bottom view.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
The shoe-upper is composed of the rubber portion a, next the sole, and the portion 1), of water-proof clot-h, similar to an ordinary overshoe. The sole 0 is of wood or other rigid material, surfaced with rubber or covered on the 1 through the outer covering of the sole. These screws are put in place during the manufacture of the shoe. The runner has flanges or lugs g apertured to set over the projecting (No model.) i
ends of the screws, and nuts h on the screws outside the flanges retain the runner firmly and securely. The runner attached in this manner is a permanent fixture on the shoe, but may be removed, if necessary, for sharpening or repairs.
The shoe is provided with a strap, 6, and buckles k for securing it tightly on the foot.
These skating-shoes can be readily put on and secured-over an ordinary boot or shoe, and as they fit closely at all points the skates cannot become loose or misplaced. The shoes also exclude frost and dampness, and thus by keeping the skaters feet warm add greatly to comfort and avoid the risk of cold from chilled feet.
I do not limit myself to the construction exactly as shown. The stiff sole may be upon the outside and the edges of the upper secured between such outer sole and an inner sole. The skate-runner may be upon a plate of the form of the sole, instead of having lugs, as shown.
Having thus described my invention, Iclaim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. A skating-shoe consisting of the rubber portion a, the water-proof cloth b, and the rubber-surfaced sole 0, having holes for the head and shank of screws, as shown and described.
2. The combinationof the screwsf, the sole 0, having holes for their heads and shanks, and the internally-threaded lugs on the front and rear of a skate, 6, whereby said sole and skate may be fastened together, as shown and described.
WILLIAM J. BARBER.
