This invention relates to shoe heel and more particularly to devices of this character of the cushion or rubber type but it is to be An important object of the invention is to provide, in a manner as hereinafter set forth, a shoe heel of the aforementioned character having a construction which will compensate for excess wear on certain portions thereof due to the tendency of the wearer to wear out that particular portion ofthe heel faster than 16 the rest of the heel.
Other objects of the invention are to provide a shoe heel of the character set forth which will be simple in construction, strong, durable, ein'cient in its use and which may be manufactured at low cost.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will become a parent from a study of the followin specification taken in connection with t e accompanying drawings wherein like characters of reference designate corresponding parts throughout the several views, and wherein Figure 1 is a bottom plan view of a shoe heel constructed in accordance with this invention.
Figure 2 is a front elevation thereof.

Figure 13 is a view in side elevation of the heel shown in Fi e 10. 1
Referringto t e drawings in detail, and Figures 1 to 5, inclusive in particular, the
when the heelsare used for repair work.
The marginal portion of the outer or wearin face of the heel 1 is provided with a raised or thickened border 4 which extends around the heel from the forward end of one side thereof to a point in spaced relation to the forward end of the other side, as clearly illustrated in Figure 10f the drawings. The end of the thickened portion 4 which is in spaced relation with respect to the forward end of the heel has its inner marginal edge curved outwardly to the adjacent marginal edge of the heel, as indicated by the reference numeral 5. The heels are mounted on the shoe in accordance with the tendency of the wearer to wear away either the left or the right side of the heels. The side of the heel over the length of which extends the thickenedportion 4 is to be placed on the side of the shoe where the most wear occurs, as will be understood.
In the form of the invention illustrated in Fi raise gradu stantially straight diagonally extending inner marginal portion which extends to the adjacent marginal edge of the heel as designated b the reference character 6. In this form 0 the invention the thickened side of the heel is adapted to be disposed against the res 6, 7 8 and 9 of the drawings, the portion 4 of the heel-is comparatively a and terminates, at one side, in a subbase of the shoe instead of constituting the wearing face of said heel.
In the form of the invention illustrated in Figures 10 to 13, inclusive, there is provided a raised or thickened wear resisting portion 7 which is to be disposed on the rear portion only of the heel and on the side where the greatest wear will occur. The opposite ends of the raised portion 7 are designated by the reference characters 8 and 9, the latter extending forwardly relative to the end 8.
In both of the modified forms of the invention the nail holes are disposed as in Figure 1. The raised portions on the wearing faces of the heels illustrated in Figures 1 and 10 may be of any suitable material other than that of which the heel itself is formed and may be secured thereto in any desirable way.
It is believed that the many advantages of a shoe heel constructed in accordance with this invention will be readily understood, and although the preferred embodiment of the invention is as illustrated and described, it is to be understood that changes in the details of construction may be had which will fall within the scope of the invention as claimed.
'VVhat is claimed is A shoe heel of the character described comprising a resilient body portion having an integral rib on the marginal portion of one face thereof extending from the forward end of the body portion at one side and terminating in spaced relation to the forward end at the opposite side, the inner marginal portion of the rib merging gradually into the adjacent face of the body portion, said rib being of uniform width from its forwardmost end to its other end portion, said other end portion gradually merging with the adjacent edge of the body portion.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature. ALFRED FERDINAND NIGGLE, J R.
