WOODEN-SOLED SHOE.
Specification of Letters Patent. No. 27,414, dated March'- T o all whom 'it may Concern.'
Be it known that I, HENRY IVIGHT, of Cambridge, county of Middlesex, and State of lt/Iassachusetts, have invented new and useful Improvements in the Manufacture of Boots and Shoes Having vWood Soles; and I do hereby declare that I believe the following to be a full and exact description thereof, reference being had to t-he accompanying drawings and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
The nature of the first part of my improvement in the manufacture of boots and slices, having wood soles, consists in the use of two soles, instead of one only, which has been the method of constructing them heretofore, the upper to which, has been secured thereto (by means of a rabbet formed on the edge with nails) Abetween which the upper is secured by any well known proper fasteninO's; and the nature of the second part of my improvement consists, in making a groove, or slit, in the edge of the sole, and securing the upper therein by any of the well known proper fasten'ings, in such cases as where the boot or shoe is formed with one sole. By constructing the wooden sole in two parts, or having two soles, a great advantage is gained-the finest and most delicate leather, as well as the heaviest in use, may be lasted and formed into a shoe or boot of a neat and elegant style with the same convenience as it could be, were leather soles used, and by rabbeting the upper part of the edge, and cutting a groove in the edge of the sole (one sole) the upper leather may be lasted in the same way, and the welt edge secured into the said groove, thus in this way also producing a neat and elegant style, as if formed, or made of leather.
To explain my invention fully and clearly, I will refer to my drawings, in which- Figure l, shows a gaiter boot, or shoe, as completed. Fig. 2, u., shows an edge view of the two soles before the upper part is put on, or the two soles fastened together. Fig. 3, a, b, shows the form or shape of the two soles on the upper side. Fig. l, is a cross section of the boot completed in the line, f, showing one of the methods in which the leather is fastened to the upper sole, and also the way the two soles are fastened together. Fig. 5, shows two ways for fasten ing the lea-therto the upper sole, and fastening the two soles together. Fig. 6, shows how the leather and the soles are put together, when they are fastened bv cement or any other of the well known proper fastenlngs. Fig. 6, also shows a groove 7s, cut in the edge of the sole, (a, and 7), being one sole,) and the upper d, secured therein by any of the well known fastenings, as cement, nails, pegs, screws, &c., and it will be clearly seen that 'the upper may be secured thoroughly in this way without exposing to View any of its fastenings.
o is the under sole, b is the upper sole, (or cz, and Z), are one sole), c the screws by which the two soles are fastened together.
Z is the upper leather, e the nails which fasten the leather to the upper sole, or as shown in Fig. 5 to both soles.
In constructing boots and shoes, on my improved plan I propose to have the upper parts closed and prepared in a similar manner to what they should be if leather soles were to be put on, then I put them onto the last, and attach the leather to the inner sole, by driving' nails, or pegs, e, through the leather, and into the edge of the sole Y), as shown at Figs. l, and a, or as shown at h, Fig'. 5, and then I fasten the outer sole to the inner with screws (or other proper, suitable fastenings) shown in Fig. 4, or with nails or pegs, or I fasten them with cement, or I have the leather bent around the edge, and a little way on the under side of the inner sole, and then the outer sole put on, and the same nail or peg, (e), which fastens the two soles together, also passes through the leather, and secures it between the two soles as shown at (i) Fig. 4, also the leather may be fastened to the soles as shown in Fig. (i, by having it bent around the edge of the inner sole, and a little way under it, and fastened to it with cement, or its equivalent, and then the outer sole fastened with cement, or other substantial equivalents, also when I use only one sole as in Fig. 6, (a, 6,) being considered as one sole,) its edge being grooved and rabbeted and the upper being secured therein by the use of proper fastenings.
It will readily be seen that in using wood as a material for boot and shoe soles, they will be broughtalmost if not entirely on a par with leather, in point of utility. The shoe can be twisted with equal facility. The leather can be secured to the sole with equal firmness, without being subject to ground Wear, and, in some of the Ways of fastening the leather to the sole, the shoe can be made With equal neatness, and good taste, With those having leather soles. Besides, if l this material can be substituted for leather to any considerable extent, it Will supply a great Want Which has been felt for several years past. The demand for leather has grown faster than the supply.
Vhat I claim is- The new manufacture of boot or shoe de-
