International Classification:

A43B 300

US Classification:

Abstract:

A warm and inexpensive legging is manufactured from a single piece of material. The material is cut into a blank having a generally rectangular leg section and a generally trapezoidal foot section. The leg and foot sections are separated by V-shaped darts in the periphery of the blank, the points of which are joined by a transverse fold line of material. The blank is folded along the fold line until the respective margins of the darts abut, and the margins are sewn to each other. The foot section is folded along a longitudinal fold line, and the edges are sewn together, thereby forming a foot enclosure. The leg section extends up the leg of a wearer. The longitudinal edges of the leg section wrap around the wearer's leg and are loosely joined by adjustable releasable fasteners.

Abstract:

A comfort vest has front and back panels that cover a person's chest and back. The vest is held in place by a pair of shoulder straps that join the front and back panels. One shoudler strap is split to create two seams. Releaseable fasteners attached to the seams permit closing the split shoulder strap over the wearer's shoulder. The comfort vest is reversible and may have a collar. The vest may be made of a moisture proof material for use as a bib. In a modified embodiment, only one shoulder strap is employed. Fastening means attached to the upper ends of the front and back panels join the panels directly to each other for draping over a shoulder. In a further modified version, the vest has very short front and back panels in combination with a collar.
