JAMES O. MATTISON AND LEROY M. PHILLIPS, OF YOUNGSVILLE,
PENNSYLVANIA.
OVERSHOE.
SPECIFICATION forming part Of Letters Patent'No. 499,241, dated June 13, 1893.
Application filed February 6, 1893- Serial No. 461,274- (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, JAMES O. MATTISON and LEROY M. PHILLIPS,'citizenS of the United States, and residents of Youngsville, in the county of Warren, in the State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Overshoe-Springs, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
As is well known, rubber overshoes and other low-cut shoes are apt to spread away from the foot and break down or tear at the opening. The object of our invention is to remedy this defect and to cause the shoe to fit snugly and closely about the foot and thus also to exclude rain, snow, &c., and to facilitate the putting on and off the shoe.
The invention consists of a springapplied' front B curves over and across the instep portion. This spring may be embedded in the shoe or otherwise applied to it, and it is shaped, substantially as shown, so as to press the edges of the opening snugly up to the foot of the wearer; that is to say, the spring curves across the front of the shoe and its ends conform to the hollow of the foot at the sides and thereby the opening in the shoe is brought and kept up to the shoe when in use.
What we claim is- The combination with a shoe having a continuous or unbroken opening for the entrance of the foot, of a spring arranged along the edge of the opening and extending across the instep and thence rearwardly toward the heel along both sides of the opening and normally pressing the sides of the opening inwardly toward the foot of the wearer, substantially as described.
