This invention relates to hip boots having flexible uppers.
It is an object of the invention to provide or construct hip boots with efficient, simple means whereby the flexible uppers of the boot may be readily adjusted to and positively held at various lengths.
The above and other objects of the invention are achieved by the means illustrated in the accompanying drawings and described below, it being understood that the invention is not limited to the specific embodiment thereof shown and described.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a side elevation of a hip boot with the flexible upper folded and held in the shortest position.
Figure 2 is a vertical section on line 2-2 of Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a view similar to Figure 1 with the boot upper held in a medium position.
Figure 4 is a vertical section taken on line #1 1 of Figure 3.
Figure 5 is a view similar to Figure 1 with the boot upper held in the fully extended position.
Figure 6 is a Vertical section on line 6-6 of Figure 5.
The invention is adapted to be used on an ordinary hip boot 10 having the usual flexi- Y ble uppers 11 and the body portion 12 which may be as flexible as the uppers or somewhat stiffer.
A strap 13 is fixed as at 14 in any suitable manner to the inside of the boot just'below the wearers knee, so that when the boots are worn the strap 13 may be looped around the users clothing usually in the forni of a belt indicated at 15, suitable means 16 being provided in the strap to adjust the length thereof.
At spaced intervals along the strap 13 are a plurality of snap fasteners 17. A short strap 18 having a snap fastener 19 thereon is provided on the boot body 12 opposite the strap 13. Fixed to the top of the flexible upper 11 at opposite sides thereof are snap fasteners 20 and 21 adapted to cooperate and engage with the snap fasteners 17 and 19 respectively.
In operation the user after putting on the boots loops the strap 13 about his belt 15 and adjusts it to the proper length by the means 16. When there is no necessity for the flexible uppers of the boots to be pulled up on the legs they are folded down over the boot vbody 12 and fastenedas illustrated in Figures 1 and 2..."4 -Itwill be seen that the fastener 20 engages with the lowermostY- fastener 1 7 on the strap 13 and that the fastener 21 engages with the fastener 19 onthe short strap 18. In this manner the flexible upper 11 is properly held in position regardless of the users movements.V Y
Upon going through knee-deep underbrush or water the uppers 11 may be raised to the position shown in Figures 3 and l. At this position the fastener 20' on the upper is snapped into the next higher fastener 17 upon the strap 13 as will be evident.
` Figures 5 and 6 illustrate how the upper is held in its completely raised position, the fastener 20 cooperating with the highest fastener 17 on the strap 13. Three positions of the uppers 11 is generally sufficient; however,
any number of positions can be had by pro viding fasteners 17 on the strap where and as desired.
It is contemplated to provide the boot with the fastening means of the invention after it has been made, however, they are preferably incorporated in the boot during the construe` tion thereof.
its many changes could be made in the construction without departing from the scope of the appended claims, it is intended that all matter contained in the above description or l shown in the accompanying description shall be interpreted as illustrative only and not in a limiting sense.
