Heretofore, Avearing plates have been applied to soles and heels and various methods have been invented for efficiently securing the same. A difficulty, however, has always been experienced in co-apting the adjacent edges of the leather and the wearing plates resulting in an irregular surface* the edges of which are liable to catch obstructions and trip the wearer with consequent danger of receiving injuries from falls.

My dsign overcomes these objections. My plates are adapted either to fit the outer contour of the sole and heel, or to be entirely inserted as shown by the circular on page 22.

The portion of the protector formed by the rabbit forming a lip is provided with a series of openings adapted to receive shoe nails or other fastenings clinched in the material of the sole. In securing my improved protector to the sole or heel a recess is cut in the sole in depth equal to the thinnest portion of the body-portion of the protector and corresponding in contour to the body portion.

A groove is then cut in the leather parallel to the surface and flush with the bottom of the recess, a distance of the material of the sole.
