UNITED STATES T N m m GEORGE VALIANT, OF TORONTO, ONTARIO, CANADA.
B'OOT.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters' Patent No. 298,638, dated May 13, 1884.
Application filed September 28, 1883. (No model.) Patented in Canada October 16, 1883, No.17,896.
To 60% whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE VALIANT, o the city of Toronto, in the county of York, in the Province of Ontario, Canada, manufacturer of boots and shoes, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Boots; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same.
The object of the invention is to make abutton-boot in which it will not be necessary to stitch around the button-holes, and in which the button-holes, when worn, may readily be replaced without injuring or in any way disfiguring the upper ofthe boot; and it consists, essentially, in stamping the button-holes out of a piece of rawhide or other suitable material, and stitching the piece thus prepared onto the fly of the upper, as hereinafter explained.
Figure 1 shows a boot having button-holes made in accordance with my invention. Fig. 2 is a plan of the piece in which the buttonholes are made. Fig. 3 shows a plan of that portion of the flap of the upper to which the button-hole piece is tacked. Fig. 4 shows the flap of an upper provided with the ordinary stitched button-hole.
In button-boots as now made the button holes are stamped out near the edge of one of the flaps of the upper. The holes thus stamped out are stitched, so as to prevent them wearing, and at the same time present a finished appearance. Button-holes, it is well known, soon wear out, and when destroyed cannot be neatly repaired. It is, moreover, an expensive matter to stitch each button-hole.
I am aware that it has been proposed to strengthen button-holes by separate re-enforcing strips of leather secured to the upper around and on the outside of each button-hole. I am also aware that it has been proposed to make the fly of the upper of a separate piece of stronger material and secure the same to the upper, and make no claim to such constructions.
In the drawings, A is a button-hole piece, preferably made of rawhide or other strong material, and having a series of button-holes, a, made in it, as shown. This piece A is sewed to the flap of the upper 13; and in order to make the connection between the two as neat as possible, I scallop or serrate the edge of the flap 0f the upper 13, as shown in Fig. 3. The stitches employed for connecting the piece A to the flap of the upper B follow the form of the serrated or scalloped edge, forming aneat finish, as indicated in Fig. 1.
WVhile my invention is specially designed for button-boots, it may also be applied to laceboots instead of button-holes, eyelets being substituted.
I deem it important that the edge of the flap of the upper be serrated, as shown, for by this arrangement not only is a very neat finish formed, but the stitches that secure the pieces A to the flap of the upper, following the form of the scalloped edge of the latter, render the shoe at this place much stronger and the piece A less liable to be torn off than where there is only a straight seam.
It will readily be seen that my improvement can be applied to shoes already in use, it being necessary only to remove the piece containing the button-holes and serrate the upper and then secure to the upper one of my pieces A.
What I claim as my invention is A boot having the edge of the fly of its upper serrated or scalloped, in combination with a piece of material sewed to the said edge and having eyelets or button'holes stamped out of it, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
Toronto, September 25, 1883.
GEORGE VALIANT.
In presence of- Guns. 0. BALDWIN, E. M. GHADWIOK.
