A system for the manufacture of leatherlike materials, particularly for shoe uppers, which avoids pollution, toxicity and fire hazards and makes it possible for the shoe manufacturer to make his shoe upper materials as required with a minimum of investment in inventory of raw materials and with simple, relatively inexpensive equipment.

Method of making leatherlike materials (B)

Process for laminating. A macroapertured thermoplastic web is brought continuously into contact with the hot moving surface of a rotating roll. A fabric is pressed against the thermoplastic material on the roll and, within about five seconds, the fabric carrying the hot thermoplastic material is continuously peeled off the roll. The resulting fabric, carrying hot thermoplastic material, is then brought into contact with a preformed cellular layer.
