SHOE-LACE FASTENING.
SPECIFICATION forming- IO a full, clear, and exact description of the same,
and which said drawings constitute part of this specification, and represent, in
Figure 1, a perspective view of the shoe;
Fig. 2, the stay detached; Fig. 3, the inside of I 5 the shoe, showing the-stay applied.
This invention relates to an improvement in the shoe-lace fastening for which Letters Patent were granted to us January 27 1882, No. 260,198. Our previous invention as described in said Letters Patent consisted in providing one of the flaps of the shoe with three holes in the shape of a triangle, through which holes the lace is passed in such a manner that the end of the lace will be held by a part of the lace on the outside between two of the holes.
In practically carrying out our said invention we have encountered a difficulty arising from the fact that the strain upon the triangular-positioned holes is such as to contractor 3 pucker the leather, as the leather readily yields under this strain, so much so as to make the shoe a discomfort to the wearer, and also many times loosening the fastening.
To obviate this difliculty is the object of our 3 5 present invention; and it consists in applying a metal stay to the said three or triangularlyarranged holes upon one side of the upper, the said stay having holes corresponding to the holes in the shoe, and the eyelets, which propart of Letters Patent No. 280,173, dated June 26, 1883.
Application filed April 9, 1883. (No model.)
tect the holes, serving to secure the stay to the shoe, as more'fully hereinafter described.
The lacing-holes ab 0 are arranged as 'in our previous patent, the lacing below those holes being arranged and applied in any known or convenient manner. Preferably upon the inside of the shoe we place a stay, A, cut from sheet metal in substantially triangular shape, and perforated, as at d e f, corresponding to the holes a b 0 through the upper. This we arrange upon the inside of the upper, as seen in Fig. 3, and pass the eyelets through the holes and close them down upon the under side of the stay, as seen in Fig. 3, which firmly se cures the stay in its position, and when so secured it prevents any possible change of the three holes with relation to each other, so that the difficulties hereinbefore mentioned are entirely overcome.
The eyelets may be made as a part of the stay that is struck therefrom, so as to pass through the leather and be set upon the opposite side.
What we claim as an improvement upon the invention secured to us by Letters Patent No. 260,198 is In a single-lace shoe, the flaps provided with means for lacing, and above the lacing devices three holes, a b 0, through the upper, combined with the stay A upon one side, with eyelets through said holes a b c, and by which said stay is secured to the upper, substantially as described.
