CHARLES H. NELSON, OF NORTH GRAFTON, MASSr-XCIIUSETTS.
BOOT OR SHOE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 398,436, dated February 26, 1889.
Application filed November 3, 1888. Serial No. 289,868. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern;
Be it known that I, CHARLES II. NELsON, of North Grafton, county of \Vorcester, State of Massachusetts, have invented an Improve ment in Boots or Shoes, of which the followin g description, in connection with. the acco1npanying drawing, is a specification, like letters on the drawing representing like parts.
Many people object to buying boots or shoes containing elastic goring, chiefly because the india-rubber strands break at the junction of the cut edges of the goring wit-h the upper. I have discovered that the breaking of the rubber strands is due chiefly to the rotting action of oil which passes from the upper into the elastic fabric and thence on the rubber. The stitches uniting the cut edges of the clastic goring to the leather of the upper form a medium along which the oil travels from the leather into the goring. To obviate the passage of oil from the upper into the goring, to thus rot the rubber and. cause the strands to break oil next the leathcrof the upper,I have produced a boot or shoe in which the cut edges of the goring are secured or stitched to attaching strips or welts, the edges of the attaching strips or welt-s farthest from the center of the gorin g being secured or stitched to the upper.
The goring when applied to a shoe in accordance with my invention will last as long as the shoe, whereas when the goring is stitched directly to the upper the rubber strands frequently break when the shoe has been worn but a very short time, destroying the fit of the shoe and causing the shoe to present a very untidy appearance. 7
My invention consists, essentially in the combination, with a shoe-upper and elastic 1 goring, of attaching strips or welts interposed between the elastic part of the goring and upper, substantially as will be described.
The drawing represents my invention as emally of black color, commonly contains oil, both in the vamp and top, and when the out edges of the gorin g are stitched directly to the upper, as in. Congress boots 110w made, the oil in the upper follows along the stitches into the elastic goring and rots the rubber, or gets into the rubber by pressure of the goring against the oiled leather. To avoid this trouble I have attached the cut edges of the goring c by lines of stitching 2 to attaching strips or welts d, and the edges of the attaching strips or welts extending beyond the edges of the gorin g, or beyond the ends of the india-rubber strands of the goring, upon the elasticity of which strands the permanent elasticity of the goring depends, (see the righthand attaching strip, which is partially broken away,) are secured by stitches 3 to the upper, the said stiches 3 not entering the goring. The stitches 2 in the goring serve to fasten and bind the india-rubber strands in the goring near the side edges of the goring. Through the attaching strips or welts the elastic goring will be so held that oil in theleather of the upper cannot pass to the rubber strands of the goring.
The stitches 2 do not pass through leather containing oil, nor can the oil work through the attaching strips or welts to the india-rubher.
The improved shoe herein described is very durable and presents a very neat appearance.
I intend by the term attaching strip or welt to include any material free from oil or grease interposed between the upper of a shoe and that or any portion of the goring which contains india-rubber strands, Which are de pended upon to give to the boot or shoe its elasticity.
In a shoe, an upper and elastic goring and strips or welts (7, attached along one edge to i the cut edge of the goring by one line of stitches, the opposite edges of the strips or welts being connected to the upper by another line of stitches not passing through the goring, substantially as and for the purpose described.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
CHARLES H. NELSON.
