ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for lasting the waist region of a shoe in which two resilient bands supported only by their opposite edges are each advanced bodily towards a respective side of a last on which an upper is supported. The moving bands operate progressively to conform the upper to the last in the direction both of the top line and feather line and when this has been achieved the bodily movement of the bands is terminated, one edge of each band is held stationary and the other edge is moved over and towards the bottom of the last so as to wrap the adjacent part of the band round the edge of the last and turn the lasting margin of the upper over and onto an insole. The part of the band which moves towards the last bottom is followed by presser feet which are operated to press this part of the band against the last bottom. The last used is preferably a back part mould which comprises the back part and waist region of a conventional last but omits the forepart of such last.
