SHOE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 310,725, dated January 13, 1885.
Application filed October 2l, 1884.
(No model.)
To aZZ whom may concern;
Be it known that I, WALTER E. Ross, a citizen of the United States, residing at Prophetstown, in the county of Whiteside and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Shoes, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
My invention relates to shoes; and it has for its object to provide an improved fasteningfor the same, which may be readily and quickly adjusted to secure the shoe upon the foot of the wearer.
A further object of the invention is to provide a shoe-fastening which shall be cheap and simple in its construction, and one that may be readily applied.
With these ends in view the invention consists in the improved construction and arrangement of parts, hereinafter fully described, and pointed out in the claim.
In the drawings, Figure l is a perspective view of a shoe provided with my improved fastening, the flap being thrown back to more clearly illustrate its application. Fig. 2 is a vertical section showing the flaps closed and the position occupied by the fastening devices when the parts are'in such position.
In the accompanying drawings, in which like letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in both the figures, A represents a shoe having an opening on its side to form an upper and a lower flap, ci b. At suitable intervals upon the lower flap, b, are provided two eyelets, arranged side by side, a space, c, being left between each series of two eyelets, d. Upon the upper flap, a, are formed a series of openings, said openings registering with each alternate lower eyelet of the series d.
The shoe shown in the drawings is fastened as follows: The lower end of the cord or string has attached to it a shoe-button, g, as shown.. The other end of the string is then passed through the lower of the openings, f, from the upper side of the upper flap and through the eyelet d. The cord is then passed up through the next eyelet, d, and through the eye in the shank of a button, h. This operation is continued until the shoe is laced or fastened. I may, if desired, however, em-
ploy a series of strings.V In this case the first or lower string would be carried about halfway up the shoe in the manner described. Its end would then be passed to the top eyelet upon the under side of the under flap. Another string could then be secured to the next button and be secured in a similar manner to that already described. It will be seen that by the use of two or more strings the tension would not be so great as in the case where only one string was employed, hence the shoe could be more readily fastened. The string or strings are never to be taken out of the eyes or loops in order tounfasten and remove the shoe from the foot of the wearer. As soon as the ends of the strings are untied the npper flap may be pulled outwardly from the foot by the hand of the wearer, thus permitting the shoe to be easily removed. It' a series of three strings are employed, the free ends will be of equal length and sufficiently long to admit of tying in a double bow, which will thus dispose of the loose ends.
My improved fastening is simple in construction and operation, and may be applied to any part of a shoe where an overlapping flap can be applied. Thus it can be used in the front part of a shoe, on either side, or behind, and can be operated simultaneously by the wearer, is alwaysv ready, requires no buttonfasteners or button-hoolrs, and can be furnished cheaper than the common fasteners now in use.
I am aware that it has been proposed to provide a shoe with an arrangement. of buttons similar to mine. In that case, however, only one string Vwas employed, and upwardly-extending eyes or loops were employed to project from the lower flap, which prevented the flaps fitting close together. By the use of the openings or eyelets a smooth joint or seam is obtained, and by the use of the cords, as shown, the shoe may be more readily laced or fastened.
Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
A shoe having the flaps c b, each flap having a series of openings, buttons arranged in the openings of the upper ilap, a cord secured to the lower button and engaging a portion IOO of the buttons, and then passed through the i my own I have hereunto afixedmysign'ature upper eye of the lower iap, and a oord or in presence of two Witnesses. cords adapted to'engaoe the remainder of the buttons, suhstantiallybas described,I and be Y* VALTER EDWIN ROSE' 5 passed through the upper opening of the Hap Vtnesses:
a, substantially as set forth. Y WV. D. SMITH,
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as JAMEs SOARRITT.
