SHOE TONGUE HOLDER ASSEMBLY ABSTRACT The shoe tongue holder assembly includes a vamp including oppositely disposed upper portions overlying a tongue, and a securing assembly for interconnecting the upper portions of the vamp for selectively adjusting the fit of the upper portions of the vamp over and on the tongue and adjusting the fit of the vamp for the comfort of the wearer. A hook and loop fastener operatively interconnects the tongue and vamp for holding the tongue in place while placing the shoe on the foot and while wearing the shoe. The hook and loop fastener includes a hook portion and a loop portion, one of the hook and loop portions being fixed to the tongue and the other of the hook and loop portions being fixed at one of the upper portions of the vamp, and the hook and loop portions engaging to hold the tongue to the one upper portion of the vamp. The tongue includes a fixed lower end and a free upper end. The hook and loop fastener is located near the free upper end of the tongue. In one embodiment, the hook or loop portion is fixed adjacent to eyelets provided along the upper portion of the vamp. More particularly, in one embodiment, one of the hook and loop portions is fixed near the free upper end of the tongue and the other of the hook and loop portions is fixed to the overlying upper portion of the vamp about one of the eyelets. In another embodiment, the loop portion is fixed to the tongue while the hook portion is fixed to the overlying upper portion of the vamp for minimizing abrading action on a lace interconnecting the eyelets of the oppositely disposed upper portions of the vamp.
