Shoe construction with upper of leather or like material anchored to inner sole and sole structure sealed with foxing strip or simulated foxing strip

摘要

A shoe construction which includes an upper formed of leather or like material not easily bonded to rubber, an inner sole and an outer sole in which shoe the upper is indirectly anchored into the inner sole and an outer rubber or rubber-like enclosing member seals any exposed joints in the sole structure. An intermediate strip formed of a textile material is secured to the lower portion of the leather or like upper and is lasted into the inner sole, such textile strip thus being compatible with the outer enclosing member in the sense that they can be firmly bonded by means of vulcanization or other adhesion effecting techniques.
