SHOE OR GAITER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 380,289, dated March 27, 1888.
Application filed April 14, 1887.
[0 (M whom it may concern..-
Be it known that I, JOHN A. KELLY, asubject of the Queen ofGreat Britain, residing in the city and county of Philadelphia, State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Shoes and Gaiters, which improvement is fully set forth in the following specification and accompanying drawings.
My invention relates to improvements in shoes; and it consists in providing the sole of the same with a shank-stiffener, in the manner hereinafter described.
It further consists in the combination and arrangement of parts, as hereinafter described and claimed.
Figurel shows ashoein elevation, with parts broken away in the toe and heel, so as to expose thesole, the upper, and all the parts of my improvement. Fig. 2 represents a cross-section of the sole on line a m, Fig. 1, on an enlarged scale, the upper being broken away. Fi g. 3 represents a vertical section through that part of the sole, showing the inserted iron shank. Fig. 4 represents a perspective view ot'a part of a double-soled shoe embodying my improvements.
Similar letters of reference indicate corre sponding parts in the several figures.
By my improved method I construct a shoe as follows: The sole 1) is split around the entire edge to any desired depth, as shown at a, Fig. 2. I then cut a concentric slit in the upperpart of the sole, asshown at b. and turn up the slitted lips B and (1, so as to admit the edge of the upper in the slit a, after which the upper and soles are stitched together by sewing through and through from slit a to slit 2'), after which the lips B and d are turned down, the shoe turned, andlip d firmly cemented into place, thus closing up the waxed scam.
I split the rear end of the sole transversely throughout its entire width at a point just above where the heel is to be nailed upon it, and then make a perforation into the sole to a point in advance of sufficient depth to admit of the insertion of the iron or steel shank E, as clearly shown in Fig. 3. By this arrange Serial No. 234,797. (No model.)
ment I secure the shank so firmly as to prevent any possible lateral movement. The shank is of course inserted before the upper is putin place, as will be understood from an inspection of Fig. 3, which shows it in position.
It is ofcourse obvious that my improvement applies to boots as well as shoes, and in the manufacture of sewed boots the side seams would of course be left open until the soles and uppers had been united, as indicated herein.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. The improved method of fastening the shank-stiffener in shoes, which consists in forming a longitudinal recess within the body of the sole and inserting the shank-stiffener in said recess, substantially as described.
2. The improved method of inserting the shank-stiffener in ashoe, consistingin splitting the heel of the shoe laterally, then forming a longitudinal recess in the body of the sole, and then placing said shank-stiffener in said recess, substantially as described.
3. A shoe having a sole split or recessed longitudinally from the heel to apointbeneath the forward end of the arch of the shoe, and a shank-stiffener inserted in said recess, substantially as described.
4. As an article of manufacture, ashoe-sole having a longitudinal recess extending from the rear end to a point beneath the forward end of the arch, and a shank-stiffener located in said recess, substantially as described.
5. As an improved article of manufacture,
a shoe having an opening in its sole commencing at a point a little behind the breast of the heel and extending forward into the body thereof, and provided with a shanlostiffener extending the length of and occupying said opening, substantially as described.
JOHN A. KELLY.
