11 Claims.
This invention relates to shoe construction and particularly pertains to the construction of sport shoes and sandals.
In the manufacture of shoes, and particularly sport shoes and sandals, it is desirable to construct the shoes of a few relatively simple parts and to assemble them in a manner to be workmanlike in appearance, comfortable to the wearer, and durable, and it is the principal object of the present invention to provide a shoe con struction for shoes of ordinary type, such as oxfords and for sandals, which structure makes it possible to form the shoe without making it over a last and to assemble the shoe in a cheap and convenient manner without sacrificing the appearance or durability of the product.
The present invention contemplates the provision of a shoe sole of peculiar construction and upon which shoe uppers or sandal parts may be stitched by a new and novel type of stitching which does not require that the shoe upper be formed over a last and which insures that the upper will be held in proper position to be shaped by the foot of the wearer as the shoe is worn,
the heel portion of the upper being constructed to readily conform to the heel without the use of a counter and the heel embodying novel cushion means.
The invention is illustrated by way of example in the accompanying drawings in which:
Figure 1 is a view in side elevation showing one form of the present invention embodied in an oxford type of sport shoe.
Fig. 2 is an enlarged fragmentary view in plan showing the toe portion of a shoe with parts broken away to disclose the manner in which the upper is stitched to the sole.
Fig. 3 is an enlarged view in transverse section seen on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2 and as showing the channeled portion of the sole and the manner in which the upper is secured thereto.
Fig. 4 is a fragmentary view in plan showin the manner in which the edge of the upper leather is formed.
Fig. 5 is a view in plan showing the sole blank used in connection with the type ofshoe shown in Fig. 1.
Fig. 6 is a view in plan showing a sandal embodying the present construction and the novel features of applicants invention.
Fig. 7 is a view in transverse section through the toe portion of the sandal as seen on the line 1-1 of Fig. 6.
Fig. 8 is a view in vertical section throu h the heel portion of the sandal as seen on the line 8-8 of Fig. 6.
Referring more particularly to Fig. 5 of the drawings, l0 indicates a sole blank which may be of any size and last desired. This sole blank is 5 flat throughout and constitutes a full. sole. Formed on the upper face of the blank is a marginal rib H, separated from the sole surface by the usual channel II. The outer edge of the sole blank as occurring between the outer edge of the 0 rib II and the edge of the sole is relieved and lies below the plane of the upper surface of the sole and has an upper face l2 which preferably inclines outwardly and downwardly for a purpose to be hereinafter described. Formed through the rib at equal spaced intervals is a series of punched openings l3. These openings are made by an awl and are preferably produced by a multiple awl machine so that the punched openings l3 will be accurately .and mechanically 20 formed and spaced. In order that a stitching needle may be conveniently threaded through the openings l3 these openings incline'downwardly and outwardly through the rib II and are disposed at an angle substantially agreeing with 25 that of the upper face l2 of the outer edge of the sole and parallel to the plane thereof. The upper portions l4, whether they be of a design to form a sandal or an oxford, are formed along their outer marginal edges with scallops l5 and perforations l6. The perforations are disposed in equally spaced relation to each other and in equal distance from the edge of the leather. The scallops or indentations are formed in the marginal edge of the leather in equally spaced relation to each other and at points midway of the distance between the perforations I6. The line of spacing of the perforations IS with relation to the edge of the upper leather I4 is such as to permit a stitching thread I! to pass through the perforations Hi from the perforations l3 in the rib when the outer marginal edge of the leather I4 is in register with the outer edge of the rib II. The longitudinal spacing of the per- 45 forations IS with relation to each other is in exact agreement with the spacing of the passageways l3 through the rib ll so that the passageways i3 and the perforations will register and make it possible to produce a uniform and sym- 5 metrical stitching along the edge of the upper. The stitching is a crisscross stitching as particularly shown in Fig. 2 of the drawings. Here it will be seen. that two stitching threads are used,
Ha and I"). These threads pass in opposite di- 55 rection through the same passageways I 3 in the rib II of the sole and through the same perforations l6 of the upper. This in effect stitches the marginal edge of the upper down flat upon the upper flat face of the rib H and maintains the upper in a desired shape. The threads of the stitching cross each other between each pair of perforations l6 and the passageways l3. It will be evident that at the point of crossing there are two thicknesses of thread and that as the shoe is used this projecting portion of the thread might be scuffed and rapidly cut through, In order to avoid this the scallops I 5 have been formed in the marginal edge of the pieces of upper leather l4 and accommodate the two threads at their point of crossing. This permits the crisscross stitching to be drawn down fiat across the leather to produce a smooth seam.
As previously stated the upper may be of any particular design, although two forms have been shown in the present invention, a conventional type of oxford in Fig. 1, and a sandal in Fig. 6.
The heel portion of the various types of shoes is preferably of the general construction indicated in Fig. 8. In this figure it will be seen that a heel I8 is suitably secured to the bottom of the sole lfland that an indentation I9 is formed in it. This indentation is preferably circular as indicated by a dotted line in Fig. 6. A similar indentation 2D is formed in the meeting face of the sole. The opposing indentations thus provide a space to receive a rubber cushion 2|. This rubber cushion is preferably made of rubber having considerable resiliency and since it occurs directly beneath the ball of the heel will cushion the foot during walking, irrespective of whether or not the heel I8 is made of leather, rubber, or some suitable composition. The heel portion of the upper, as indicated at 22 in Figs. 1 and 8, is constructed without the use of any counter to stiffen it and to give it shape. This is accomplished by forming vertical slashes in the leather as indicated at 23 and which slashes make it possible for the leather of the heel portion to spread out and properly fit around the contour of the heel. In the sandal shown in Fig. 6, the foot embracing portions are cross member 24, an instep portion 25, and a heel portion 22. The edges of these members which are to be stitched to the sole are perforated and scalloped, as shown in Fig. 4 of the drawings, to be secured to ribs H formed along the sole at appropriate locations. The forward end or toe of the sole is upturned as indicated at 21 in Fig. '7 of the drawings. This provides a protection for the ends of the toes of the foot without requiring any cap for the toe portion of the shoe. In this construction the instep portion of the upper extends forwardly and overlaps the upper end of the upturned portion 21 of the sole and is stitched as indicated at 28.
In the manufacture of shoes of the type with which the present invention is concerned the upper leather is properly cut from patterns and is perforated and scalloped along its edges as indicated at l5 and IS in Fig. 4 of the drawings. The upper may then be stitched to the sole by causing one thread lla to be threaded through the passageways l3 and the perforations l 6. The thread I 1b is threaded through these passageways and perforations in an opposite direction to produce the crisscross stitching particularly shown in Figs. 1 and 2 of the drawings. This stitching will draw the marginal portion of the upper leather down tightly upon the horizontal face of the ribs II and will hold the same in this p sition. It will also be evident that the stitching threads will not pass through the bottom of the sole of the shoe and will not therefore be subjected to the wear incident to treading on the pavement or the like. Attention is also directed to the fact that the seam between the shoe upper and the sole does not occur beneath the foot of the wearer, thus making it unnecessary to provide insoles for the shoes. In the drawings the rib to which the upper is stitched is shown as being in uniformly spaced relationship to the marginal edge of the sole. It will be understood, of course, that the stitching rib may be in any desired spaced relationship to the marginal edge of the sole as style and the judgment of the designer of shoes embodying the present invention might dictate.
It will thus be seen that the shoe structure here disclosed is decidedly simple, provides a shoe which is inexpensive as to labor cost and material, and in addition a shoe is made which affords considerable comfort to the wearer.
While I have shown the preferred form of my invention, as now known to me, it will be understood that various changes may be made in the combination, construction, and arrangement of parts by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the invention as claimed.
