Wehler, York, Pa. Application July 16, 1947, Serial No. 761,193 This invention relates to a gage whereby a shoe fitter or foot specialist can determine if a shoe provides sufficient length for the foot, being designed particularly to ascertain the termination of the longest toe of the foot in relation to the end of the shoe. In the past if a shoe fitter or foot specialist wished to determine with fair accuracy just where the foot terminated within the shoe, it has been necessary to resort to the use of an X-ray machine for this finding. The X-ray machine besides being an expensive piece of apparatus, and recently the object of controversial issue as to possible injurious results from its use, also requires the customer or patient to arise from his or her seat and walk to and from the machine. The gage which forms the subject of this invention is simple, relatively inexpensive and easy to use, and positively determines the termination of the longest toe of the foot within the shoe. The object of the invention is to provide means by which the shoe fitter or foot specialist may quickly and easily determine the position of the end of the foot in the shoe, with particular attention to the termination of the longest toe of the foot in relation to the end of the shoe. A further object of the invention is to provide a gage which may be used on either foot, which is universal in its application to all sizes of feet and which requires no reading or scale marking in its use. With the foregoing and other objects in view, the invention resides in the novel arrangement and combination of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein described may be made within the scope of what is claimed without departing from the spirit of the invention.
