Definitions
- This invention relates to footwear of the class known to the trade as cardigan overshoes, and has for its object to provide a more easily, cheaply and strongly constructed article, in which the amount of stocking-leg may be diminished without of necessity creating an objectionable ridge along the'edge of the opening of the shoe, and more particularly at the heel portion thereof,to which edge in many cases the edge of the stocking-leg is attached.
- the invention consists, first, in using a stocking length with practically a square or rectangular end extending from the heel forward to a vertical slit or opening running substantially longitudinally of the stocking-leg portion,the edges of which slit or opening are connected to the edge of the tongue portion of the rubber shoe while the end edge ofthe stocking is taken down and held between the outsole and insole thereof, thus diminishing the length of stocking-leg required, avoiding the formation of a ridge along the edge of the opening where it would be most likely to interfere with the pulling on and off of the article, and by running the longitudinal ribs of the stocking directly down (without any material degree of lateral distension) for attachment between the soles, securing a much stronger connection of the foot portion with the leg portion of the article.

JAMES H. MOKECHNIE, OF GRANBY, CANADA.
FOOTWEAR.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 552,255, dated December 31, 1895. Application filed August 26, 1895. Serial No, 560,616. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JAMES HENRY MOKEOH- NIE, of Granby, in the county of Shefford and Province of Quebec, Canada, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Footwear; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same.
This invention relates to footwear of the class known to the trade as cardigan overshoes, and has for its object to provide a more easily, cheaply and strongly constructed article, in which the amount of stocking-leg may be diminished without of necessity creating an objectionable ridge along the'edge of the opening of the shoe, and more particularly at the heel portion thereof,to which edge in many cases the edge of the stocking-leg is attached.
To such an end the invention consists, first, in using a stocking length with practically a square or rectangular end extending from the heel forward to a vertical slit or opening running substantially longitudinally of the stocking-leg portion,the edges of which slit or opening are connected to the edge of the tongue portion of the rubber shoe while the end edge ofthe stocking is taken down and held between the outsole and insole thereof, thus diminishing the length of stocking-leg required, avoiding the formation of a ridge along the edge of the opening where it would be most likely to interfere with the pulling on and off of the article, and by running the longitudinal ribs of the stocking directly down (without any material degree of lateral distension) for attachment between the soles, securing a much stronger connection of the foot portion with the leg portion of the article. For full comprehension, however, of the invention reference must be had to the annexed drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which like symbols indicate the same parts, and wherein- Figure 1 is a side elevation of a cardigan overshoe constructed according to my invention and showing, in dotted lines, that part of the leg portion located in the rubber foot portion; Fig. 2, an enlarged transverse vertical sectional View of one side of same,taken on line 2 2, Fig. 1; Fig. 3, a detail perspective view of the lower end of the leg portion; Figs.
4 and 5, detail plan views respectively of the heel and toe linings of the shoe; Figs. 6 and 7, detail plan views respectively of the form for shaping the lower end of the leg portion and of the stencil.
The lower end or foot of the leg portion 1 is slitted vertically, as at 2, and cemented to the lining of the shoe so that the edges 3 3, formed by the slit, will overlap the edges of the lining of the tongue portion of the shoe, and the edges 4 of its lower square or rectangular end will coincide with the lower edge of the lining of the heel portion of the shoe. The lining with the leg portion attached thereto is then lasted, and the overshoe completed in the usual manner, but with the lower edge of such lining held between the insole and outsole thereof. I prefer, however, to shape the leg portion and cement it to the lining by the following method: A form 7, preferably made of metal and corresponding in shape to the lining of the shoe, is first inserted in the lower end or foot of the leg portion. A stencil 8,having its cutaway portion corresponding in shape to one side of the lining, is then laid upon the leg portion, and the exposed part of the latter is then coated with cement, the stencil keeping the leg portion from being daubed during the applications. One side of the lining is then pressed firmly upon the cemented leg portion until it adheres thereto, after which the uncemented side of the leg portion is turned uppermost and the foregoing method repeated, when the article will be ready to be lasted and completed in the usual manner, but with the lower edge of the lining and leg portion held between the insole and outsole.
WVhen the foregoing method is followed it will be preferable not to slit the lower end of the leg portion until after the lining has been cemented to it and allowed to set. I also prefer, so as to facilitate the application of the lining to the cement-coated leg portion, to form the lining of stock frictioned on both sides and divided into two sections, to provide two independent linings-one, 9, for the heel and the other, 10, for the toein which case the heel-lining 9 will first be cemented to the leg portion by the described method and then the edges 10 of the toe-lining 10 cemented to the edges 9 of the heel-lining 9.
If desired, the heel-lining 10 can be divided in two portions, as indicated by dotted line in Fig. 4, and each portion attached ,to the leg portion independently.
\Vhat I claim is as follows:
1. In a cardigan overshoe, the combination with a rnbberfoot portion having integral toe, heel, vamp and sole portions-of a textile leg portion longitudinally slotted and extending through the opening of the foot portion directly to a point of attachment between the insole and outsole without lateral distension into the toe portion thereof, for the purpose set forth.
2. In a cardigan overshoe, the combination with a rubber foot portion havingintegral toe, heel, vamp and sole portions, of a textile leg portion, the latter having its lower. end substantially square and with a vertical slit or opening in the front thereof, the square end extending through the opening of the foot portion and having its edge held between the insole and outsole, and the edges of the slit or opening in the leg portion connected with the edge of the tongue of the foot portion.
3. In a cardigan overshoe, the combination with a textile leg portion having its lower end provided with an opening in the front thereof,of separate toe and heel linings and suitable insole, with an inelosing rubber foot portion having integral toe, heel, vamp and sole portions and all suitably attached together.
4. In a cardigan overshoe, the combination with a textile leg portion having its lower end provided with an opening in the front thereof,of separate toe and heel linings, the heel lining attached to the leg portion, the rear edges of the toe lining attached to the forward edges of the heel lining, and the lower edges of both linings held between a suitable insole and an inelosing rubber foot portion, the latter having integral toe, heel, vamp and sole portions.
5. In a cardigan overshoe, the combination of a textile leg portion having its lower end provided with an opening in the front thereof,-oi:' separate toe and heel linings, the heel lining attached to the leg portion, the rear edges of the toe lining attached to the forward edges of the heel lining and the lower edges of both linings and leg portion held between a suitable insole and an inclosing rubber foot portion, the latter having integral toe, heel, vamp and sole portions.
